Since the acquisition of PRODWAYS (formerly Phidias Technologies) in May 2013, a number of significant developments have been made. The range of 3D printing machines has been broadened, the development of proprietary resins has expanded and Prodways is expected to relocate to the Group's main site - currently undergoing renovation - in February. The site, situated in Les Mureaux, France, has 26,900 sq. ft. of office space and 107,600 sq. ft of workshops operated by the Group's four branches, some of whom have already contributed resources to the 3D printing business.
Over and above the development of new machines and new technologies, the Group's strategy is aimed at giving priority to a wider portfolio of materials proposed to customers. Access to new materials that allow new applications is doubtless one of the keys to growth for the 3D printing industry. In addition, the Group has not ruled out the option of investing directly in companies or application blueprints that would benefit from the significant advantages offered by Prodways technology (speed, yield, precision, premium materials).
The warm welcome received by our technology at the Euromold trade fair, the world's number one venue for 3D printing, and the many signs of interest from customers, are reassuring signs for the Group's ambitions in this business sector. Our objective is very quick growth in revenue from 3D printing, consisting primarily of machine sales and recurring sales of resins. The Group's objective is to attain and then exceed monthly revenues of €5 million during the year 2016 in a market as dynamic as the results from current studies have indicated and forecast.....
