Recently, Dr. Gai Kricheli, founder of the renowned Swiss dental implant company SGS, visited China. He toured Hefei Haoyayi Medical Technology Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries, including the Hanzu factory in Suzhou and the Anhui Woertai Precision Manufacturing plant, and held an in‑depth strategic symposium with the group’s senior management. Both parties engaged in high‑level exchanges on implant design philosophies, clinical application trends, and future directions of technological integration, further cementing strategic mutual trust and the foundation for collaboration.

This visit by the founder of SGS was not merely a cross‑border dialogue on technology and concepts, but also a profound resonance of shared values in technology, quality, and innovation. At the Hanzu factory in Suzhou and the Anhui Woertai Precision Manufacturing plant, Dr. Gai Kricheli closely observed the production lines for the Hanzu CHAMPION and Hanzu PURA implants, the precision quality management systems, and the manufacturing environment that strictly adheres to international standards. Hanzu’s rigorous process workflows and efficient local responsiveness earned Dr. Kricheli’s high recognition and appreciation; he particularly commended the factory’s exceptional process stability and quality control requirements.

During the symposium, both sides sparked numerous insightful exchanges on implant design concepts between China and Europe, and thoroughly discussed cutting‑edge design logic, restorative trends, and the differences and integration of clinical needs in the two regions. They shared their respective insights and experience accumulated from long‑term clinical practice. Building on this, they conducted in‑depth discussions on the technical directions for the next‑generation co‑developed implant and made forward‑looking assessments of global implant design trends.

This visit marks a solid step forward in the integration of global expansion and deep local penetration. Embracing openness, professionalism, and mutual benefit, Hanzu will continue to join hands with international partners, connecting global wisdom with Chinese craftsmanship, to jointly elevate oral healthcare to new heights.
