Aumund

What Aumund does

AUMUND Group is a privately held, Germany-headquartered industrial engineering group founded in 1882, organized under Dutch parent AUMUND Holding B.V. and operating through multiple wholly-owned subsidiaries including AUMUND Fördertechnik GmbH, SCHADE Lagertechnik GmbH, SAMSON Materials Handling Ltd (UK), ESI Eurosilo (Netherlands), TILEMANN GmbH, AUMUND Logistic GmbH, and AUMUND Group Field Service GmbH. The group designs, manufactures, and services bulk material handling equipment — bucket elevators, chain conveyors, apron feeders, pan conveyors, discharge systems, telescopic spouts, circular and longitudinal storage systems, stackers/reclaimers, wagon unloading systems, mobile material feeders, shiploaders, and STORMAJOR boom feeders — for heavy-industrial customers in cement, lime and gypsum, mining and minerals, metallurgy, foundries, power plants, chemicals, fertilizer, agribulks, ports and terminals, and alternative fuels and biomass.

The underlying technology is primarily mechanical and process-engineering rather than digital-native: heavy-duty industrial conveying and storage equipment designed for abrasive, high-temperature, and corrosive materials, with proprietary product brands including SAMSON®, STORMAJOR®, and eLCC. The group has added an Industry 4.0 digital layer through PREMAS® 4.0 predictive maintenance, which uses sensor monitoring and data analysis to track equipment health across the installed base, supported by PREMAS Inspection and PREMAS 360° service packages.

AUMUND generates revenue through a mix of capital equipment sales (project-based, custom-engineered material handling systems), professional services (mechanical engineering, installation, commissioning, process optimization and conversion), managed maintenance services (PREMAS inspection, predictive maintenance, 360° packages), and spare parts and after-sales support (TILEMANN chains and components). Distribution is direct, enterprise field sales through eleven wholly-owned regional offices and subsidiaries across Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, North America, and South America, with a new Istanbul, Turkey office opened in February 2026. Pricing is quote-based, project-specific, and not publicly disclosed, with multi-year contracts on the maintenance/aftermarket side. Revenue, ownership, and customer concentration data are not publicly disclosed.

Broad incumbents

• Thyssenkrupp: German industrial conglomerate whose plant technology and materials services historically supplied heavy-industry material handling solutions. Broader portfolio than AUMUND but addresses overlapping cement and metallurgy customers.
• Terex Corporation: US-based manufacturer of lifting and materials-handling equipment including aerial work platforms, port equipment, and conveying systems. Adjacent competitor in port and bulk-handling niches where SAMSON shiploaders operate.
• Sandvik: Swedish multinational offering mining and rock-processing equipment including material handling solutions. Broader portfolio than AUMUND but overlaps in mining bulk-handling and aftermarket services.
