Federal Screen Products

What Federal Screen Products does

Federal Screen Products Inc. is a privately held custom manufacturer and fabricator of wedge wire screens founded in 1997 by Vito Sabia and headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, with a Mining Division in Guelph. The company produces engineered filtration and separation components built around V-shaped resistance-welded wire on support rods, with a portfolio spanning plain screens, media retention nozzles, vessel internals (header/hub-lateral assemblies), strainer baskets, support grids, resin traps, intake screens, sieve bends, MBBR wastewater screens, and the patented Archer Underdrain system. All products are custom-built to client specifications with slot sizes ranging from 0.001" to 0.5" and materials including stainless steel grades 304/316/316L, Hastelloy, Duplex, and Monel, manufactured entirely in-house on proprietary production machinery with water jet cutting and CNC capabilities.

The company sells on a project-based, per-job pricing model with net-30 payment terms, generating revenue through one-time custom orders rather than recurring contracts. Its go-to-market combines direct sales (website, phone, email with quotes within 48 hours), an independent sales representative network across multiple regions, and active participation in industry trade shows including WEFTEC, AWWA ACE, MINExpo, CME, IWC, and Expomin. Federal Screen serves nine verticals — water treatment, wastewater treatment, OEM screens, oil and gas, power generation, food and beverage, mining, pharmaceutical, and pulp and paper — with named customers spanning North American gold mining operations, remote Alaskan municipal water systems, petroleum producers, and food/beverage manufacturers. Operations are supported by 60+ employees, 40,000+ sq ft of manufacturing space, and certifications including NSF/ANSI 61, ISO 9001:2015, ASME compliance, and ASTM compliance.
