Mitsui Chemicals takes
over Heraeus Kulzer
The Japanese company Mitsui Chemicals,
Inc. (MCI) has taken over the dental divi-
sion of the Hanau based technology com-
pany Heraeus. MCI will keep its current
structures. Heraeus Kulzer management
believes the new umbrella will provide
excellent opportunities for consolidating
its leading position in the den-
tal market.
MCI will take over the
entire dental division with its
1,400 employees in 20 loca-
tions around the world. The
company will continue to be called
Heraeus Kulzer. The current management
will remain unchanged and business will
still be conducted from Hanau. Heraeus
Kulzer has a steady and profitable growth
and is the German market leader for labo-
ratory materials. MCI supports the
changes introduced in 2012 and the re-
orientation to the divisions Dental
Materials and Digital Services.
MCI has increased its interest in the
emerging healthcare market. By acquiring
the company, it is expanding into the
international market whereby Heraeus’
dental division takes an important role.
Dr. Martin Haase, who will continue to
head Heraeus Kulzer as
Managing Director, views the
change in ownership with
optimism. “Mitsui is strength-
ening its position outside
Japan. It’s about the long term
commitment of a successful industrialist.
Heraeus Kulzer will play a key role in
Mitsui’s expanding business concept,
which is aimed at growth. This therefore
provides us with good long term growth
opportunities.”
MCI is already active in the dental mar-
ket through its shares in two regional
manufacturers, Sun Medical and Shofu.
