ANIVI

What ANIVI does

ANIVI (legal name: ANIVI INGENIERIA, S.L) is a privately held, family-owned Spanish industrial capital goods manufacturer headquartered in Loiu, Vizcaya, in the Basque Country. Founded in the 1930s and currently in its third and fourth generation of family ownership, the company designs, manufactures, and commissions custom-engineered industrial plants and equipment for material processing, with over 80 years of accumulated project experience delivered across approximately 60 to 100 countries.

The product portfolio is organized into four integrated divisions. The Grinding and Classification division builds ball mills, pendulum mills, vibration mills, hammer mills, cylinder crushers, and multiple proprietary air classifiers including the HURRICANE (cuts down to 3-5 microns), CENTRICONIC (up to 8 microns), NSA (up to 35 microns), and ANIVI-STURTEVANT (up to 55 microns). The Drying and Calcination division delivers rotary kilns, multiple types of industrial dryers, coolers, and granulators for fertilizers (NPK, DAP, TSP). The Air and Gases division produces centrifugal fans, bag filters, cyclones, and scrubber/gas treatment equipment spanning more than 60 years of continuous development. The Modular Systems division offers the READY-MILL container-sized grinding plant and the NOMAD DRYER three-module drying plant, both targeting lower capex, faster deployment, and sub-12-month client payback. Supporting capabilities include an in-house industrial testing laboratory, pilot plant facilities, engineering and consulting services, spare parts, and post-sale maintenance.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time capital goods sales and turnkey plant contracts delivered via direct sales relationships, supplemented by professional services such as engineering consulting, laboratory and pilot testing, spare parts, and maintenance. Primary customers operate in mining, chemical, ceramic, metallurgical, fertilizer, construction materials, and recycling/waste-management industries across Europe, Latin America, North America, Africa, and East Asia. Approximately 85% of revenue is derived from exports, with 80% of projects international and 40-50 new projects completed annually. Pricing is project-based and not publicly disclosed.
