Cintasa

What Cintasa does

Cintasa is a Spanish family-owned manufacturer of custom conveyor systems and material handling equipment, founded in 1973 by Rafael Simón in Utebo (Zaragoza) and now operated by the second generation of the founding family. The company designs and assembles proprietary conveyor variants — including tubular (TTL, TTR), laminated profile (TUL), laminated lattice (TCL), bended metal sheet (TUC, TCP, TCC), roller ways (TCR), dosing conveyors with integrated weighing (TDP), rotating and mobile conveyors, and trippers — alongside feeders (belt, apron, vibrating), belt and bucket elevators (TEB, TEC), silos and hoppers, chain conveyors, Redler drag chain conveyors, transfer tables, triage booths, and big bag dischargers. Equipment is custom-engineered to client specifications and produced in-house at the Utebo facility, which received a EUR 2M+ expansion in 2021. The firm holds ISO 9001 quality certification (since 2000) and participates in Spain's National Carbon Footprint Registry and the FEDER 'Clean and Efficient Technologies' STEP programme.

Cintasa serves enterprise industrial clients across ten verticals — cement, mining, iron and steel, aggregates and quarry, recycling, energy, chemical, construction materials, farming, and food manufacturing — through a sales-led GTM with headquarters-based direct sales and two regional delegations in Málaga (southern Spain) and Atlanta (Americas). Revenue is generated via one-time custom equipment sales on multi-year contracts plus recurring after-sale services (installation, maintenance, spare parts, technical assistance); all pricing is quotation-based with no public list. The firm invests in brand visibility through repeated participation in major international trade shows (Bauma — eighth consecutive edition in 2025 — IEEE-IAS/PCA Cement Conference, SIM, SMOPyC, AICCE, CONEXPO, Conexpo LatinAmerica) and maintains multilingual web presence (Spanish, English, French) and a customer-area portal for documentation and support. Cintasa is a privately held, family-controlled SME with no disclosed external investors, parent company, subsidiaries, M&A activity, or public financial filings.
