What Lemasa does

Lemasa is a Brazilian industrial manufacturer specializing in high-pressure and ultra-high-pressure waterjetting (hidrojateamento) equipment, founded over 30 years ago in Indaiatuba, São Paulo, where it operates a 17,000+ m² facility equipped with CNC machining centers and certified test benches capable of 6,900 bar. Its portfolio spans the SAP line of super-high-pressure pumps (up to 1,400 bar / 20,000 psi), the UAP line of ultra-high-pressure pumps (up to 2,800 bar / 40,000 psi), a SAP L compact line (up to 750 bar), a family of specialty process pumps including a saltwater variant, and a broad accessories catalog covering nozzles, rotating cleaning tools (Gladius, Dagger, Cyclone, Tempest, Scimitar), spray guns (Katana, PFAL, PFF, Penta 40K, Subaquática), high-pressure hoses, safety devices and semi-automated cleaning rigs (Cerberus, LizardJet, Triple Jet Cart, EasyJet). The company's proprietary INTELLIVALVE single-valve head system reduces component count by 88% versus prior designs and is also available as an upgrade kit for the installed base of SAP GIII, UAP II and UAP III pumps.

Lemasa generates revenue primarily through hardware sales of pumps, parts and accessories, complemented by after-sales services including maintenance, operator training and Parker-certified recertification of high-pressure hoses. Its go-to-market is sales-led and quote-based, supported by a website quotation request funnel, branch offices in Macaé (RJ) for oil & gas and São José do Rio Preto (SP) for sugar/ethanol, channel partnerships through Parker Hannifin and Hugo Frauenhof for hose assembly and distribution in Brazil, and global reach via its parent Comet Group's network in more than 130 countries. The customer base spans enterprise industrial users across automotive, cement, chemical, civil construction, food, foundry and steel, mining, naval, oil platforms, petrochemical and sugar-and-alcohol verticals, in addition to industrial cleaning service providers; the company self-describes as the largest manufacturer of super and ultra-high-pressure pumps in the Southern Hemisphere, with more than 2,000 pumps in operation in Brazil and abroad.
