EOS has announced the full acquisition of Metalpine GmbH, an Austrian specialist in high-quality metal powders for additive manufacturing. Having already held a shareholding in the company for several years, EOS has now taken 100% ownership, turning a trusted supply relationship into a fully integrated one.
At the heart of the deal is Metalpine’s patented wire-based gas atomization process, which produces highly spherical, pore-free metal powders known for their consistency and performance in demanding industrial applications, with a particular focus on titanium and copper.
For EOS, the strategic intent is clear: as titanium AM scales across aerospace, medical, and high-performance industrial applications, securing a reliable, high-quality powder source becomes a competitive differentiator. Metalpine will continue to operate as an independent company within EOS, maintaining its brand, organizational structure, and its broader customer base across the AM ecosystem.
This acquisition follows a pattern. In 2025, EOS acquired Vulcan Labs, a Stratasys spin-off specializing in Powder Bed Fusion technology, bringing polymer AM expertise and talent into its North American operations.
We saw through these moves a deliberate vertical integration strategy: from process expertise (Vulcan Labs) to material supply (Metalpine).
