US-based Hyperion Materials & Technologies, a global materials science company specialising in advanced hard and super-hard materials for various industries and applications, has announced an agreement to acquire TEMSA Transformaciones y Estudios Metalúrgicos SL, along with its sister companies PLUSDUR SL and METADUR SL.
In addition to serving its existing customers, TEMSA will become a vital part of expanding the Hyperion business to Europe. This business uses Hyperion’s global footprint to provide specialised, precision finishing capabilities for tailored, high-quality wear components and tooling.
“TEMSA is exactly the partner we have been looking for to expand and enhance our custom wear part offering in Europe. Its engineering expertise, investments in machining technology, and competence working with tungsten carbide, has made the company a go-to supplier for turnkey hard materials projects,” comments Ron Voigt, chief executive officer at Hyperion. “We are energised by the capabilities and talented employee base that TEMSA brings to the Hyperion family. We look forward to working together to build long-lasting relationships that will benefit Hyperion and TEMSA customers.”
For almost 40 years TEMSA, a worldwide leader in tooling manufacture, has gone beyond its limits, always focused on helping customers across a wide range of industries meet complex tooling requirements. With a team of 100, including engineers, highly skilled machine operators and technical experts – at a 8,000m2 production facility in Barcelona, Spain – TEMSA will provide a strong complement to Hyperion’s European operations.
“We are thrilled to join TEMSA’s expertise in high precision tool manufacturing in ultra-small batches with Hyperion’s global competence in hard materials,” says Xavier Collell, CEO of TEMSA Group. “By joining forces with Hyperion and its unique competences, we look forward to achieving new solutions for our customers and leveraging our combined technological expertise to drive market innovation.”
