This will strengthen the further development of innovative high-performance materials for industrial applications and accelerate its growth ambitions.
The subsidiary of MOESCHTER Group GmbH, DOCERAM Medical Ceramics GmbH, an experienced specialist in highly aesthetic zirconia has been acquired by Dental Direkt GmbH (Spenge, Germany).

Following the sale of its dental division, the MOESCHTER Group will now concentrate on its considerable strengths as a specialist in high-performance technical ceramics and plastics with a focus on industrial applications. The MOESCHTER Group creates room for innovation, new technologies and operational excellence in order to continuously improve the range of products and services available to its customers. The strategic aim is to actively exploit the growth opportunities in these very exciting markets.
The transaction was backed by HANNOVER Finanz, a private equity partner for med-sized companies in the German-speaking region, which is the shareholder of both companies.
