There is growing speculation that the US based company Dentsply will announce a deal with Astrazeneca to purchase Astratech.

Astratech was founded in 1948 in Molndal Sweden and has 2200 employees.

The auction process is being handled by JP Morgan and it is thought to have attracted interest from other medtech companies and private equity firms. However Dentsply is thought to be in pole position for Astratech due to its particular interest in the dental side of the business.

It is rumoured that Dentsply is in discussion and are believed to be offering up to 2 billion for the business. Dentsply is cash rich and is known to be hunting out acquisitions.

Globally Astratech is the 3rd biggest supplier of dental implants.

It would appear that a deal is imminent but neither party are prepared to comment at the moment.
