October 17, 2025 – LuxCreo, a leader in polymer 3D printing technology and solutions, announced the completion of a new funding round. This round was strategically invested by Angelalign Technology, with Index Capital serving as the exclusive financial advisor. Concurrently, Angelalign and LuxCreo will establish a global strategic partnership to jointly develop a new generation of high-performance 3D printing materials for clear aligners, promote the innovative application of direct 3D printing technology in the orthodontics field, and build a future-oriented digital orthodontic ecosystem.

01 Strategic Synergy: Deep Integration of Market Leadership and Cutting-Edge Technology

Against the backdrop of intense competition in the clear aligner market, the strategic cooperation between Angelalign and LuxCreo represents a forward-looking initiative aimed at breaking through industry bottlenecks and exploring next-generation technical standards. This collaboration achieves a synergistic effect where "1+1 is greater than 2":

Angelalign, as an innovation driver in the global clear aligner industry, continuously advances clear aligner solutions by strengthening its R&D and clinical support capabilities, enhancing user experience, and expanding its global footprint, while also making long-term investments in infrastructure such as intellectual property, global supply chains, and data security.

LuxCreo, as an innovator in frontier 3D printing technologies, possesses the world's first direct 3D printing clear aligner solution certified by multiple authorities including NMPA, FDA, and CE MDR. Its core advantages lie in its innovative ActiveMemory™ shape memory material and integrated intelligent production process.

The partnership merges Angelalign's advanced product capabilities and extensive experience serving numerous clinicians with LuxCreo's innovative strengths in 3D printing technology, jointly committed to building a more comprehensive digital orthodontic ecosystem.

02 Technological Innovation: Creating Core Value for Doctors and Patients

The core of this collaboration is an intelligent treatment solution based on LuxCreo's direct 3D printing technology and ActiveMemory™ shape memory material, which will fundamentally enhance the treatment experience and outcomes:

More Precise and Efficient Orthodontic Force: The innovative memory material features thermally activated shape memory function, capable of delivering continuous, stable orthodontic force – equivalent to the patient "wearing a new aligner every day" – thereby potentially shortening treatment cycles and improving the predictability of tooth movement.

Unprecedented Design Freedom: Direct 3D printing technology supports personalized designs such as variable thickness, zonal elasticity, solid fills, and built-in microstructures. This enables doctors to create highly customized treatment plans for patients, addressing more complex cases.

Superior Patient Experience: The new technology is expected to reduce reliance on traditional attachments, enhancing both the aesthetic appearance and comfort of wear.

Mr. Jiezhang Hu, CEO of Angelalign, stated: "Angelalign consistently prioritizes technological innovation as our core driver, making long-term investments in frontier R&D areas like material science, smart manufacturing, and digitalization. We believe the cooperation with LuxCreo will further accelerate the clinical application of new technologies, providing global doctors with more innovative solutions and allowing patients to enjoy more comfortable, aesthetic, and efficient treatment experiences. We will continue to lead the industry towards greater intelligence and personalization with an open and collaborative approach."

Mr. Shangyu Yang, Co-founder and CEO of LuxCreo, stated: "We are delighted to partner with an industry leader like Angelalign, which possesses both scale and vision. Angelalign's rich clinical service experience and industrial chain resources will accelerate the expansion of LuxCreo's advantages in material innovation, production automation, and our digital AI dental platform. We aim to jointly establish an efficient and precise new paradigm for digital orthodontics, allowing more patients worldwide to benefit from technological innovation."

03 Future Outlook: Leading High-Growth Global Market

According to industry forecasts, the global clear aligner market is expected to grow from approximately $6.5 billion in 2024 to nearly $99.4 billion by 2034, indicating immense market potential. The strategic cooperation between Angelalign and LuxCreo precisely aligns with the market's core demand for more efficient, precise, and personalized treatment solutions. This partnership is expected to drive the implementation of technological innovations in clinical applications, injecting momentum into the industry's future development. The shared goal of both parties is to enable more global users to access high-quality oral health services brought by technological progress and to radiate confident smiles.
