FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: General Kinematics Makes the 2025 Inc. 5000 List, Growing 84%

NEW YORK, August 12, 2025 – Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that General Kinematics, a family-owned equipment and systems provider, is No. 4182 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. With a Three-Year Revenue Growth of 84% Percent, this marks General Kinematics’s 2nd Time on the List.

The Inc. 5000 list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia.

“We are honored to be recognized on the Inc. 5000 list for the second time,” said Tom Musschoot, 3rd generation CEO of General Kinematics. “Our team’s dedication to innovation and customer service has been the driving force behind our continued success. We have expanded our reach through strategic acquisitions and continue to deliver ambitious projects for the foundry, recycling, and mining markets. I am incredibly proud of our team’s efforts and look forward to building on this momentum.”

General Kinematics has been a leader in the vibratory equipment and material processing industry for more than 65 years. The company has continued its growth and market expansion through the acquisition of key industry players, including Cyrus Vibrating Equipment, Tuffman Recycling Equipment, the Foundry Equipment Company (FECo), and now SKALA Australasia. These strategic moves have allowed General Kinematics to enhance its product offerings and provide comprehensive support to its global customer base in the foundry, recycling, mining, and aggregate sectors.
