Quantum Acquires BCN3D, Ensuring the Manufacturer’s Continuity

Developer and manufacturer of 3D printing solutions BCN3D filed for bankruptcy this May after failing to reach a debt restructuring agreement. Now, the company’s future is taking a new path with the entry of Quantum, a new company backed by private investors from Lleida, which has formalized the purchase of BCN3D’s assets and operations, according to a press release published August 19th.

The purchase guarantees the continuity of its business and, according to the company itself, will retain its current team. BCN3D, which has been struggling financially in recent years despite having raised more than €17 million in private investment and public funding, sees this acquisition as an opportunity to resume growth under a structure they have described as “a more focused phase—leaner, more agile and better positioned to continue delivering advanced 3D printing solutions to the light industrial market.”

The acquisition by Quantum guarantees the continuity of BCN3D, preserving both jobs and service to its customers.

A New Phase Under Quantum

If the name Quantum doesn’t ring a bell, that’s normal. Quantum was founded to ensure the sustainable growth of strategic industrial assets, with the support of companies such as Sorigué, Banasegur (Sabseg Group), Terberfer and Inversions Vall, linked to the agri-food group Vall Companys. The new owner is committed to consolidating the investments made by BCN3D in recent years, such as its headquarters and production center in Lleida. Furthermore, they will seek to strengthen their position in the additive manufacturing market for light industrial applications.
