HEMA develops, produces and sells band saws for almost all materials and applications with around 50 employees. The portfolio focuses in particular on solutions for ripping lightweight materials and insulating materials. The products are supplied worldwide from Swabia, with an export quota of around 90%, depending on the fiscal year. In 2020, sales amounted to around €8.5 million. Like WINTERSTEIGER, HEMA is also a specialist and technology as well as quality leader in a niche. HEMA's technically highly sophisticated solutions complement WINTERSTEIGER's product portfolio in the Woodtech division (thin-cutting sawing machines, saw blades, mobile and stationary sawmills, automation solutions and equipment for wood finishing). In terms of competencies and areas of application, the division is being significantly expanded by HEMA: in addition to wood, other materials are now coming to the fore for WINTERSTEIGER. Lightweight foams, aramid honeycombs, construction and insulating materials as well as technical plastics are of particular importance here.
