Overview

GE Additive is the name associated with GE’s additive manufacturing activities, while Concept Laser is an associated brand name included in this dossier’s subject identity. The supplied official-site evidence presents the current business as Colibrium Additive, a GE Aerospace company. The evidence does not specify when or how the GE Additive and Concept Laser names were incorporated into the current Colibrium Additive identity, so this dossier treats the names as related but does not assert a detailed corporate sequence. The business focuses on metal additive manufacturing. Its official description identifies metal 3D printers, additive powders, and services as parts of its offering, alongside additive expertise and customer support. It describes two powder-bed-fusion printer approaches: Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (EB-PBF), which uses an electron beam in a vacuum and is presented for productive manufacture of dimensionally accurate parts; and Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF), which uses lasers to melt fine metal powder in successive layers to produce complex geometries from CAD files. The official site also identifies AP&C as a Colibrium Additive company. The company describes its work as serving global manufacturers and helping customers apply additive printing technology. Its offering combines machines, services, powders, and expert guidance rather than focusing on printers alone. The support model includes a customer portal for service requests, parts orders, technical questions, and other issues. The official leadership page identifies Alexander Schmitz as CEO and lists leaders for finance, supply chain, services, and communications. No headquarters, original founding date, founder, detailed ownership history, or specific country-by-country market coverage is established by the supplied evidence.

History

The supplied evidence establishes a relationship between the subject’s GE Additive / Concept Laser naming and the current Colibrium Additive business, but does not provide a dated corporate history of those names. The current official homepage identifies Colibrium Additive as a GE Aerospace company. Its About page describes it as a world leader in metal additive design and manufacturing and presents an integrated offer of experts, machines, services, and quality powders. Accordingly, the available evidence supports describing the current operation as a GE Aerospace-associated metal additive manufacturing business, but not asserting the exact dates or legal steps by which earlier names or businesses became part of it. The official product description identifies two major metal powder-bed-fusion approaches. EB-PBF printers operate in a vacuum and use a high-power electron beam, with the site highlighting productivity and dimensionally accurate parts. L-PBF printers use lasers to melt layers of fine metal powder and produce complex geometries from CAD files; the company notes that multiple machine envelope sizes are available. The site also identifies AP&C as a Colibrium Additive company and describes additive powders and services as part of the wider offering. The company’s official services material describes a portal through which customers can submit service queries, order parts, ask technical questions, and report other issues. The leadership page lists Alexander Schmitz as CEO since 2023, Jan Siebert as Head of Supply Chain since 2024, Jai Venkatraman as Global Service Leader since August 2024, and Federica Dellacasa as CFO since 2026. The supplied sources do not establish a founding year, founder, headquarters, or a fuller historical timeline.
