Scheftner relaunches under new ownership following insolvency

In August 2025, the newly established Scheftner GmbH, based in Mainz, Germany, commenced operations. The company builds on the core business of the former S&S Scheftner GmbH, which entered insolvency and is moving forward with a new ownership structure.
Scheftner specialises in non-precious dental alloy powders and products and has taken over nearly all of its predecessor’s business activities.
The company’s migrated operational processes have been streamlined in an effort to ensure greater efficiency, transparency, and customer focus. The established range of non-precious dental alloys remains fully available, with strategic inventory expansion prioritised to safeguard supply.

The company’s team also remains in place, though under a new Managing Director. New ownership also provides additional resources intended to advance product development, strengthen competitiveness, and further enhance market positioning, while preserving the company’s established identity.
“For our customers, this realignment above all means continuity – in quality, product portfolio, trusted contacts, and our high standards of service and support,” stated Dr Mariela Schmitt-Borell, Chief Financial Officer. “We are grateful for the trust placed in us and look forward to building the future together with competence and reliability.”
