What CreaMED does

CreaMED is the medical-specialized division of Crea3D S.R.L., an Italian private limited company headquartered in Ruvo di Puglia, Italy. Operating as a B2B solution provider since 2020, it supplies and integrates 3D scanning, CAD design, and additive-manufacturing (SLA, LCD, DLP, FFF/FDM) equipment for medical and dental professionals across six verticals: dentistry, podiatry, orthopedics, surgical planning, bioprinting, and audiology. Its portfolio combines distributed third-party hardware (Shining3D Aoralscan intraoral scanners and AccuFab DLP/LCD printers; Raise3D E2 and Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle systems) with third-party materials (BEGO VarseoSmile dental resins, Evonik RESOMER bioresorbable polymers, polypropylene orthotic media) and software (Exocad CAD, Accuware print management). Named users include individual practitioners (Dr. Michele Di Cosola, Dott. Mirko Valenti, Dental Laboratory of Giuseppe Vallarelli), an integrated startup (Holey), and a nonprofit (HK Maker Club).

The business model is a hybrid of capital-equipment resale, recurring consumables (resins, filaments, orthotic materials), and service revenue from training, consulting, and R&D support for medical practices adopting digital workflows. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is a consultative, enterprise-field-sales motion targeted at dentists, podiatrists, orthopedic specialists, and surgeons, combined with active participation in industry events (Expodental Meeting, SIPeP Congress, Federodontotecnica, ANDI training events) and a long-running webinar program archived from 2020 through 2025.

Operationally, CreaMED runs as a micro-organization (1–10 employees) within the parent Crea3D, is ISO 9001:2015 certified at the parent level, GDPR-compliant, and has raised no external funding. It leverages its parent for organizational infrastructure and certification, while building outward through core technology partnerships with Shining3D, BEGO, Raise3D, Evonik, and a co-development relationship with orthopedic-startup Holey. The company serves primarily Italian and broader European medical customers, with a website localized in Italian and English and an e-commerce storefront operated via the linked Crea3D online shop.

Core offering

CreaMED distributes and integrates 3D printing and 3D scanning hardware, dental resins, bioresorbable polymers, and supporting CAD software for medical applications across dental, podiatry, orthopedics, surgical planning, bioprinting, and audiology verticals. Alongside hardware supply, the company offers training courses, consulting for digital transition, and R&D services to medical professionals in Italy and Europe.

Product overview

CreaMED is a division of Crea3D S.r.l. specializing in digital solutions for the medical and healthcare sector. Rather than a single software product, CreaMED functions as a solution provider that selects, integrates, and distributes the best 3D hardware and software technologies for medical applications. Their portfolio encompasses six solution areas: Dental (models for crowns, bridges, aligners, surgical guides, Hawley plates, provisional and definitive restorations), Podiatry (orthotic insoles), Orthopedics (custom braces, orthoses, prostheses), Surgical Planning (anatomical models for pre-operative planning), Bioprinting (research applications for tissue engineering), and Audiology (custom earpieces). They distribute and support products including Shining3D scanners (Aoralscan, AutoScan DS-MIX) and printers (Accufab-D1, Accufab-L4D), Raise3D and Ultimaker industrial printers, BEGO dental resins, Evonik RESOMER bioresorbable polymers, and CAD software including Exocad and Accuware. Services include supply, training, consulting, and research and development.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• 3D Systems: 3D Systems offers broad healthcare 3D printing solutions including dental, orthopedic implants (VSP surgical planning), and bioprinting research. It overlaps with CreaMED's full medical vertical range but at a much larger scale and with proprietary technology rather than reseller models.
• Materialise: Materialise provides medical 3D printing services (surgical planning, patient-specific implants, orthopedics) plus dental software (Dental Module, Ortho System). Comparable range of medical verticals to CreaMED, combining software, services, and printable parts.
• Carbon (Carbon3D): Carbon provides CLIP/DLS 3D printing systems widely adopted in dental (e.g., KeySplint Soft) and athletic/orthopedic custom manufacturing. Same dental/orthopedic end-customers as CreaMED but a higher-end, higher-throughput positioning with proprietary hardware.
• EOS GmbH: EOS is a leading industrial SLS/DMLS 3D printing vendor serving medical device OEMs and orthopedic implant production. Comparable to CreaMED's orthopedic and surgical planning focus, but at industrial scale for serial production rather than clinical distribution.
• Stratasys: Stratasys has an established dental/orthopedic 3D printing business (PolyJet, FDM) and partner channel through Align Technology/Dental Wings. Comparable in serving dental labs and orthopedic applications, though with proprietary printer platforms rather than distributing third-party brands as CreaMED does.

Direct peers

• Desktop Health: Desktop Health is the healthcare-focused spin-out of EnvisionTEC with extensive dental and bioprinting 3D printing solutions. Comparable to CreaMED's combination of dental focus plus bioprinting research applications, though with proprietary printers rather than a distribution model.
• Formlabs: Formlabs is a major dental and medical 3D printing hardware/materials vendor. It competes directly with CreaMED's distributed-product offering (e.g., AccuFab series from Shining3D) and addresses the same dental labs and orthodontic clinics with end-to-end SLA/LED workflows.
• DWS Systems: DWS Systems is an Italian-headquartered SLA/DLP 3D printing manufacturer with strong dental and biomedical application focus. Domestic Italian competitor overlap with CreaMED in dental prosthetic production and biomaterial 3D printing research offerings.
• SprintRay: SprintRay provides dental 3D printers, post-processing units, and resins targeted at chairside dental workflows. It competes head-on with CreaMED's dental solutions portfolio (crowns, bridges, surgical guides, Hawley plates) using similar open-material DLP/LCD printers.

Emerging players

• Structo: Structo produces Mask Stereolithography (MSLA) dental 3D printers and is integrated into clear aligner/dental lab workflows. Competes in the same dental-3D-printing niche targeted by CreaMED's Shining3D AccuFab and similar LCD-based dental printers.
