What Tekemas A/S & AB does
Tekemas A/S & AB is a privately held Danish bulk powder handling systems integrator founded in 1971, headquartered in Albertslund, Denmark following a relocation from Glostrup in October 2025. The company designs and engineers custom powder handling systems — ranging from single components to full turnkey process lines — for industrial manufacturers in pharmaceutical, food, nutrition/dairy, chemical, and metal powder segments. Its technical offering spans pneumatic and mechanical conveying, mixing, feeding, discharging, sieving, containment, weighing, and process automation, anchored by proprietary and licensed technologies including PTS Vacuum Dense Phase Conveying, Matcon IBC Cone Valve technology, and the DINO Bulk Truck Loader. Over 50 years, Tekemas has delivered more than 3,000 custom-designed systems worldwide and supplements equipment sales with aftermarket services (spare parts, preventive maintenance, modernization, and process optimization).
Tekemas operates as a project-based enterprise sales organization, combining direct engineering consultation, 3D layout design, partner-supplied equipment integration, and commissioning support. It sells primarily through a long-tenured network of roughly 20 international technology partners (Matcon, Amixon, Coperion K-Tron, DEC, Kreyenborg, BLH Nobel, IKA, and others) while retaining in-house system engineering and process know-how. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 certification and achieved Elite RKI credit rating status (top 4% of Danish firms) in June 2025. Its customer base is concentrated in regulated industries where contamination control, traceability, and qualification documentation drive procurement — evidenced by named customers Aker BioMarine, Hes-Pro Finland, and Kiranto Foods.
Revenue is generated through one-time equipment/system sales using milestone-based payment terms (30% at order, 60% at delivery, 10% net 30 for orders above DKK 300,000) plus recurring aftermarket services. The company runs three legal entities (Tekemas A/S in Denmark, Tekemas AB serving Scandinavia from Sweden, and Tekemas Poland Sp.Z o.o. established in Dębica, Poland in October 2022) and is wholly privately owned with no disclosed external funding. Tekemas remains self-financed, operating from a five-office footprint across Denmark (Albertslund and Hørning), Sweden (Kungsbacka), and Poland (Dębica).
