Planmeca is the world’s third largest manufacturer of dental equipment and the largest privately owned company in the industry. Throughout its 45-year history, Planmeca has firmly believed in Finnish know-how and manufacture as a market advantage, and still today the company’s dental units, imaging devices and software solutions are all designed and produced in Finland. Finland is a pioneer in high technology, and that is what Planmeca wants the country to be in the future as well.
High quality education, investment in research and collaboration between industry players are the cornerstones of technological expertise and progress. Accordingly, Planmeca is celebrating Finnish independence with, among other things, a substantial donation to the Finnish Aalto University. Moreover, Planmeca will be bringing the centennial to industry events, company premises and its various channels of communication.
