About Sinto Advanced Ceramics
Pioneers in Ceramic Additive Manufacturing
Sinto Advanced Ceramics is a specialized contract manufacturer for technical ceramics, focused on the additive manufacturing of high-precision ceramic components.Founded in 2016 as CeriX and later operating as Bosch Advanced Ceramics, we were among the first companies to bring ceramic additive manufacturing into stable industrial series production. Since 2026, we have been part of the Sintokogio Group and operate under the global brand Sinto Advanced Ceramics.
Sinto Advanced Ceramics is a global orgnization with a network of regional entities. Our production and engineering center is located in Immenstadt, Germany, operating as Sinto Advanced Ceramics Europe GmbH. To support the Asian market, we also operate a dedicated sales office in China. Additional Sinto Advanced Ceramics units in the USA and Japan serve their respective local markets. Despite this regional structure, we supply and support customers worldwide.
Our mission: to enable reliable, scalable, and application-driven ceramic components for advanced engineering challenges across industries.
Our Expertise:
Engineering, Manufacturing, and QUALITY
Our international team combines expertise in materials science, ceramic processing, additive manufacturing technologies, and functional engineering. We cover the entire process chain in-house:
- CAD data analysis and application-oriented design support
- AM manufacturing via SLA, LFD and LCM
- Proprietary pre-processing and post-processing workflows
- Thermal processing and sintering
- Mechanical, dimensional, and functional qualification
- Global logistics and customer support
Our background in the Bosch Group enabled us to integrate more than 100 years of ceramic manufacturing and sintering expertise into our processes. This foundation is key to the repeatability and reliability of our components.
"Additively manufactured technical ceramics enable designs that expand what is technically feasible. By industrializing these manufacturing processes, we support our customers in transferring advanced engineering concepts into robust industrial applications."
