Tente supplier in Romania
Industrial wheels and castors for trolleys and equipment
Founded in 1923
Who is Tente and what does it make?
Tente is a German manufacturer of industrial wheels and castors, active since 1923, with technical support in over seventy-five countries and a catalogue of over ten thousand standard products. The range covers swivel and fixed castors, pallet wheels, brake systems, the E-Drive electric-drive series (in flex, ultimate and optima versions) and solutions such as Integral assist or Levina care evo for hospital beds and trolleys. From this portfolio we can quote standard industrial wheels and the E-Drive series for trolleys and mobile equipment.
Tente puts the emphasis on the medical segment and on electrically assisted drive solutions for hospital beds and trolleys, where moving a heavy load by a single operator matters. Materials range from solid rubber and cast polyurethane to stainless steel, for compatibility with frequent washing or corrosive environments.
In Romania, the Tente range makes sense for mobile equipment in hospitals, internal logistics trolleys and technical furniture, where the wheel must withstand repeated loads without scratching the floor or blocking movement during sudden changes of direction.
What do we supply from the Tente range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Swivel and fixed castors for trolleys | Standard wheels for industrial trolleys, mobile racking and handling equipment, available with solid rubber, polyurethane or plastic tyres, with or without integrated brake. The swivel mount allows easy manoeuvring in tight spaces. For a quotation, the customer must specify the load per wheel, the diameter wanted, the floor type and whether a brake or direction lock is needed. |
| E-Drive electric drive series | Motorised wheels that assist the pushing or pulling of heavy trolleys and beds, in flex, ultimate and optima versions, adapted to different load levels and frequency of use. They reduce the operator's physical effort when handling equipment above a certain weight. For a quotation, the customer must send the total weight of the equipment, the daily frequency of use and the floor type. |
| Wheels and solutions for medical equipment | Wheels and running systems for hospital beds, emergency trolleys and mobile medical equipment, with materials compatible with frequent disinfection and with hospital hygiene requirements. Integral assist is Tente's motorised system for assisting movement. For a quotation, the customer must specify the type of medical equipment, the maximum weight and the facility's hygiene requirements. |

We bring in industrial wheels, the E-Drive series and solutions for medical equipment to order, through EU supply channels, usually in 1–4 weeks from order confirmation. For an accurate quotation, the customer must send us the load per wheel, the diameter wanted, the mounting type (with fork, with plate) and whether the equipment has special hygiene requirements or a corrosive environment. We check the availability of each catalogue variant on request, before the quotation.
Configuration and commissioning of the motorised E-Drive systems are usually the responsibility of the integrator of the final equipment.
Frequently asked questions about Tente
What is the difference between the Tente Omikron and Kappa series?
Both series are designed for very heavy loads: Omikron is the "extreme heavy duty" series, with capacities of over 1,500 kg per wheel, while Kappa covers a wide range, from 400 to 22,500 kg, depending on the version. The choice depends on the total weight of the equipment and on the surface it runs on.
What is the Tente Integral assist system?
Integral assist is the manufacturer's motorised system for assisting the movement of hospital beds or other heavy medical equipment, reducing staff effort when moving over long distances or on ramps. Compatibility with a given bed or with the wheels of the Integral series is confirmed from Tente documentation.
Do you supply Tente wheels and castors in Romania?
Yes, Tente wheels arrive to order, usually in 1–4 weeks, because this range is not held on the shelf, given the very large number of series and capacities available. Tell us the load per wheel, the diameter wanted and the environment of use — industrial, medical or furniture — so we can prepare a suitable quotation.
What is the Tente Levina care evo series?
Levina care evo is the recycled-material variant of the Levina series, designed for hospital and nursing-home furniture, where environmental impact matters more and more when choosing suppliers.
