VATECH Dealer's Focus: STSG DENTAL CENTER

VATECH Global Co., Ltd., the dental and medical devices distribution subsidiary company of VATECH for the global healthcare industry, has a network of 13 overseas subsidiaries and CS Centers, as well as numerous business partners in more than 70 countries. VATECH Global aims to provide the best & topmost dental and medical imaging devices along with quality service to its customers.

Once in a while, this blog will feature product distributors of VATECH Global and get to know these sales partners that share the same vision as VATECH in being No.1 in service-oriented dental and medical device distribution.

One of VATECH Global's newest business partners is STSG Dental Center. This company is based in the country of Georgia, which is located at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe, and bounded to the west by the Black Sea, to the north by Russia, to the south by Turkey and Armenia, and to the southeast by Azerbaijan. 


Last Sept. 28, 2012, we got the chance to correspond through e-mails with the Marketing Manager of STSG LTD., Mr. Giorgi Maruashvili.  Below is the content of our short email interview with him:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

1)      When did STSG & VATECH sales partnership started? 

    – We have started our cooperation with Vatech 4 months ago. Even in the beginning, we have started massive promotional activities with a lot of meetings with the dental professionals, made public presentations, spread out the information using all the marketing instruments. And the crown of all these efforts had been the annual congress and exhibition in the City of Batumi.

                                            BATUMI Exhibit 2012

          2) What VATECH products are on STSG product-line?    

          – 2D and 3D imaging units / EzSensor. 

       Check out VATECH products in their website.

      STSG Dental Center handles the following VATECH products among others: PaX-Zenith3D, PaX-Reve3D, PaX-Uni3D, PaX-Duo3D, PaX-Flex3D, PaX-Primo, EzSensor                                      

         

     3)      Give us a little info. about STSG's dental imaging market in Georgia ? 

         – This had been the main subject for us to begin the cooperation with the company who could offer us the best price/quality ratio, which would suit the demands of the Georgian dental market. For our opinion, Vatech is the exact company which satisfies every need of the Georgian dental market. On the other hand, the Georgian dental market exactly needed the digitization.  So as for this, we have found out that we had a great potential to be the number 1 supplier of digital products at our local market. So for the meantime, this is just the beginning, as we have already represented the 3D imaging unit in Tbilisi and 8 units of EzSensors. Thus, we are very sure to achieve success in more than 70% of the Georgian X-ray market. (By having the complete market research and knowing the competition situation as well.)

Humanray & Rayence merged to create RAYENCE Co., Ltd.

- Rayence, TFT detector company merged with Humanray, CMOS sensor 

    company

- Builds a complete line-up of products for Medical, Dental, Veterinary, 

    and Industrial applications

Oct. 17, 2012 (VATECH Networks HQ, Korea)...  Two subsidiary companies of VATECH, Humanray and Rayence, is announced to have merged effective Sept. 30, 2012. The new name of their combined entities is RAYENCE Co., Ltd.

About Humanray
Humanray is a core x-ray solutions company that specializes in CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) sensors. CMOS sensors have the advantage of obtaining high resolution images with low-radiation dose through its high SNR performance and high speed readout without the image lag. This technology is being used for dental, medical, and industrial x-ray imaging.

About Rayence
Rayence holds the manufacturing technology for TFT (Thin Film Transistor) large area Detectors. These products are being used for medical x-ray and veterinary x-ray, particularly in the growing equine detector market.

Full line-up of Detector products

This merger brings about the establishment of a bigger X-Ray Detector specialized company in RAYENCE Co., Ltd. A full line-up of X-ray detectors has been built for medical, dental, veterinary, and industrial applications.

The synergism of this merger can be explained in 3 significant points of views:

1.     In terms of enterprise value, the company’s status is revaluated as the no.1 company domestically (Korea) in the detector technology sector.

2.     In terms of business, it builds a diversified detectors technology and a full line-up of detector products that present for growth and expansion opportunities.

3.     In terms of organization, it maximizes efficiency of the R&D, Sales, and the entire staff of the company.

Looking at it in the entire VATECH Networks sphere, the dental imaging equipment and detectors business areas both ranked no.1 in the Korean market. These 2 areas have been making significant positioning, thus placing VATECH Networks as Korea’s leading medical device group of companies.

Because of the medical radiation exposure issues and film development environmental issues, there is a recent trend of accelerated transition from analog to digital medical diagnostic x-ray equipment usage, with X-ray equipment digitization growing to more than 15%.

The high growth potential of RAYENCE in the detector market can be attributed to:

Ø  Expansion of clientele in the mammography, dental, and industrial areas, which is accredited to its in-house designed technologies and manufacturing core competencies.

Ø  Active marketing in Retrofit and wireless areas.

Ø  A prepared plan for innovative cost competitiveness through its own core technological competencies.

From the combined revenue of Humanray & Rayence in 2011 at 63.8 billion Korean Won, 2012 revenue is projected at 82 billion Korean Won, which sets RAYENCE as the largest detector company in Korea. VATECH Co., Ltd. is the largest shareholder of this newly-merged corporation at 50.3%.   (US$1=₩1,105.50)

Mr. James Hyun (Hyun Jeong Hoon), CEO of the newly-merged RAYENCE Co., Ltd. has said “This merger brings about synergistic effects, which can be expected in the fields of manufacturing technology, quality control, marketing, etc., and thus enable us to provide quality detectors that correspond to the specific needs of customers.”  Lastly, there is an ongoing plan for Rayence to be publicly traded in no later than 2014.
