3C-Carbon Group AG has acquired the Medical Intelligence Medizintechnik GmbH, a subsidiary of the Swedish medical technology manufacturer Elekta AB, with effect from 1 May 2020.
With the acquisition of Medical Intelligence Medizintechnik GmbH (MI), 3C-Carbon Group AG (3C) is taking over the German Product Supply Centre (PSC) of the globally active Elekta AB group into the existing 3C medical technology division. MI, based in Schwabmünchen (Bavaria), has been successfully operating since 1995, developing and producing special components for radiation oncology. MI achieves an annual turnover of about 40 million Euro in the business year 2019/2020 with a double-digit return on sales.
3C can look back on a long and successful cooperation with MI. Among other things, 3C is significantly involved in the development and production of CFRP components for the linac solutions of Elekta AB (Stockholm/Sweden). The high-tech carbon fibre components of the 3C-Carbon Group are considered as a recognized market reference. The development speed and quality as well as 3C's unrestricted premium claim will continue to guarantee the basis for a successful cooperation in the future.
Elekta has been a leader in medical precision irradiation for almost five decades. Its nearly 4,000 employees are committed to ensuring that people suffering from cancer worldwide have access to and benefit from more precise, personalized radiation therapies. With the transaction, 3C and Elekta simultaneously enter into a global supply and distribution agreement for MI's medical product portfolio.
The MI employees at the Schwabmünchen site will transfer with the company to 3C. The successful integration of the existing company and its workforce will thus consolidate and deepen the continued close partnership between Elekta and 3C.
Karsten Jerschke, Founder and CEO of 3C: "Our success is based on long-term relationships with our customers and an uncompromising commitment to product quality. Our partners in medical technology demand perfection. We will be able to meet this demand even better by welcoming the new colleagues from Elekta's MI business".
Maurits Wolleswinkel, President Linac Solutions Elekta: "Elekta and 3C are long-standing partners. 3C with its superior design and engineering capabilities is an important supplier for us. Now we are laying the foundation for an even stronger partnership in the future".

The 3C-Carbon Group AG has sweetened the Easter season a little with an "Easter bunny donation" for some needy, but also for the currently heavily burdened employees of the Landsberg hospital.
100 shiny golden rabbits from a well-known brand manufacturer were given to the care managers of the emergency room, who divided the rabbits between the staff on duty at the hospital and the corona infection outpatient clinic. Hospital spokeswoman Regina Miller immediately thanked 3C via the social media: "Such a beautiful gesture that will certainly sweeten the holiday service!"
A short time later, a few Landsbergers in need also came to enjoy the noble chocolate bunnies. Marlies Klocker, manager of the Landsberger Tafel, accepted two boxes with over 60 pieces from the 3C-Carbon Group AG. "Thank you very much", said Klocker, "especially in times like these we are very happy about such donations". Due to current contact restrictions, the rabbits have been included in the standardized food packages that are currently being distributed to recipients by Red Cross employees. 3C board member Karsten Jerschke was pleased that his donation was so well received, "it is a small gesture of attention and appreciation at Easter for some who are currently under excessive strain and people who are not on the sunny side of life anyway."
After the early termination of the ice hockey season, Bayernligist HC Landsberg has nevertheless already made an important personnel decision: Fabio Carciola remains coach of the Riverkings.
"He is convinced of our way to increasingly promote and integrate our own young talents", says HCL President Frank Kurz, "you can already see that from the way he integrated numerous young players into the first team last season". Carciola and the HCL-presidium quickly agreed in view of the team's achievements, and together they decided to extend the contract for the next season.
However, due to the current situation, it is not yet possible to predict when this season will start and how the leagues will be composed.
The step to the north of Germany was absolutely right: the HOREX team now met with great interest and open enthusiasm at the Hamburg Motorcycle Days.
For the premium manufacturer it was the first participation in the established event in the Hanseatic city and it paid off immediately. Throughout the entire event, there was consistently high demand from the numerous visitors for the unique VR6 motorcycles from the factory in Landsberg am Lech, Upper Bavaria, and also a lot of praise for the exclusive HOREX stand. The great success in Hamburg is thus giving further impetus to considerations of opening another HOREX location in northern Germany in the near future.
With two victories, the Riverkings have already made participation in the play-offs to the ice hockey Oberliga almost a foregone conclusion one matchday before the end of the interlocking round. The somewhat surprising 4-2 win in Passau was followed two days later by a landslide victory over Klostersee.
With 10:2 they shot the guests from Grafing, who were completely indisposed that evening, out of the hall. With better exploitation of oppoertunities, the result could have been even higher.
Klostersee had even taken the lead through Wren after just under nine minutes. But then the Riverkings really got going, with the scorers initially coming in a brace: Reuter and the all-conquering Dennis Sturm turned the 0-1 into a 6-1 until halfway through the game, after which the other attackers were allowed to cheer as well, with Gäbelein reserving the right to make a double-digit final score five minutes before the end of the game.
As expected, things had been tighter in Passau. Mitchell and Charvat had given the Riverkings a 2-0 lead over the favourites, but the hosts could not be shaken off and in the final phase came close to 3-2. Krammer with his Empty-Net-Goal in the final minute secured the points for the HCL.
With this, the Landsbergers have regained sixth place, which is enough for direct play-off qualification. The possibility that they will be intercepted by Waldkraiburg on the final matchday is only a theoretical danger with a lead of three points and 23 goals. The quarter-finals will then be played in best-of-five mode, with the first play-off match taking place on 13 March.
Goals for Landsberg in Passau: Mitchell, Charvat, Kerber, Krammer
Goals for Landsberg against Klostersee: Sturm (4), Reuter (2), Reichenender, Machacek, Kerber, Gäbelein.
The 3C-Carbon Group AG is the exclusive main sponsor of the HC Landsberg.
