What Raumaster does

Raumaster Oy is a Finnish, family-owned industrial engineering company founded in 1984 in Rauma, Finland by five engineers, specializing in turnkey material handling systems for process industries worldwide. The company designs, manufactures, and delivers equipment including pneumatic conveying systems, fuel yards, solid fuel feeding systems, wood/chip/bark handling systems, winders and rewinders (operating at up to 2,500 m/min with roller widths up to 7-8 metres), pulp bale and roll handling systems, fully automated roll wrapping lines, and automated loading/unloading systems for rolls, pulp bales, timber, and sea containers. Its operations span two main subsidiaries — Raumaster Paper Oy (paper-industry roll finishing equipment) and Raumaster AB (Swedish regional entity) — with related companies Ketjurauma Oy and AS Rauameister. The product portfolio combines mechanical engineering with complete in-house electrical and automation services including PLC programming, drives, control systems, and warehouse control systems.

The company's go-to-market relies on direct enterprise sales supported by a network of 17 global representatives across six continents, with project-based, quote-based pricing for customized turnkey deliveries spanning engineering, manufacturing, delivery, erection, electrification, automation, commissioning, and start-up. Revenue is generated predominantly from two verticals — Energy (power and CHP plants undergoing coal-to-biomass conversion) and Pulp & Paper (paper, board, and pulp mills) — serving enterprise customers such as Stora Enso, Fortum, Metsä Group, Mondi Group, Göteborg Energi, Stockholm Exergi, ACCIONA, and Melitta Group. Recent financial scale includes turnover of more than EUR 150 million in the last financial year, a workforce of over 400 employees, more than 4,000 lifetime projects delivered across 70+ countries, and 1,200+ pneumatic conveying solutions currently in operation. Manufacturing is anchored at the Rauma headquarters, the Sampaanala sheet-metal workshop with new fiber laser cutting capacity, and the recently expanded Pori assembly hall (completed December 2024, the largest single investment in company history).

Core offering

Raumaster delivers complete, customized turnkey material handling systems for process industries worldwide. Its portfolio spans pneumatic conveying systems, fuel yards, solid fuel feeding systems, screw reclaimers, winders and rewinders, pulp bale and roll handling, fully automated roll wrapping lines, automatic loading/unloading systems, and wood/chip/bark handling systems, complemented by in-house electrical engineering, automation, and PLC programming services delivered from engineering through commissioning and start-up.

Product overview

Raumaster Group (Raumaster Oy, Raumaster Paper Oy, and Raumaster AB) delivers complete turnkey material handling systems as a unified portfolio of complementary solutions for process industries worldwide. Raumaster Oy serves the energy, pulp, and paper industries with pneumatic conveying systems, fuel yards, solid fuel feeding systems, and screw reclaimers, while its wood, chip, and bark handling divisions manage raw material flow from mill arrival through processing. Raumaster Paper Oy focuses on roll finishing and conversion equipment for paper mills, including winders and rewinders (operating at up to 2,500 m/min with roller widths up to 7-8 metres), pulp bale and roll handling systems, roll wrapping lines (up to 100 rolls/hour), and automated loading/unloading solutions for rolls, bales, timber, and sea containers. Both divisions provide complementary electrical, automation, and controls services, with turnkey project delivery spanning engineering through commissioning. The portfolio functions as an integrated suite where products share common automation platforms and can be delivered as complete plant solutions rather than standalone equipment.
