Belmont

What Belmont does

Belmont (legal entity TAKARA COMPAGNIE PARIS – BELMONT) is the French distribution subsidiary of Japanese dental equipment manufacturer Takara Belmont Corporation, operating as a SARL headquartered at ZAC du Petit Nanterre, 56 rue des Hautes Pâtures, 92000 Nanterre, France. The subsidiary markets and distributes the parent company's Japanese-manufactured dental equipment — including flagship EURUS treatment units (S1, S4, S6, S8, S8 Rod Swing, Swivel), VOYAGER III orthodontic units, CLAIR and PROGRES standalone chairs, CLESTA EURUS hybrids, EURUS and ceiling-mounted scialytic lights, the PHOT X II Touch intraoral X-ray generator, mobile carts, and ergonomic operator stools — to dental professionals across France and the Benelux region.

Technical differentiation rests on several proprietary technologies protected by patents: the Place Type (blind-return) instrument system that allows cords to glide without friction, reducing musculoskeletal strain; foot-activated joystick controls for hands-free chair positioning; silent and smooth hydraulic movement systems used across the product range; and the Eurus Touch interface for streamlined procedure selection. The portfolio spans EU MDR Class I, IIa, and IIb medical devices, with quality assurance certified by TÜV Rheinland under MDD Annex II (registration HD 60042394 0001). All products carry a 5-year manufacturer warranty.

The business operates an indirect, distributor-only go-to-market model, selling exclusively through a network of authorized distributors (including ABW Dental as exclusive Belgian partner) without any direct-to-consumer channel. Revenue is generated through hardware sales plus aftermarket parts and service, with pricing quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Commercial activities combine trade show presence (ADF Paris and Bordeaux, IDS Cologne, DENTEX Brussels), digital marketing across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube, downloadable brochures, and a formalized technical training program for distributor partners. The subsidiary has 11-50 employees, share capital of €152,400, and is part of a corporate group selling dental and medical equipment in more than 120 countries.
