PostProcess Technologies
CEO: Jeff Mize
Founded: 2014
Headquarters: 2495 Main St. Suite 615, Buffalo
What the company does: Develops solutions for the additive manufacturing industry
Whether it’s square footage, revenue or partnerships, PostProcess Technologies is growing through multiple channels.
The business, headquartered at Tri-Main Center in Buffalo, builds machines that “clean” parts after they’ve been through additive manufacturing.
CEO Jeff Mize expects the startup’s gross revenue to grow 10x by 2026 and projects being profitable by Q3 2023.
The business, which employs about 64, announced late last year a distribution partnership with EOS, a supplier of powder bed printers. This way, PostProcess solutions can be bundled with EOS printers.
“Being able to announce a partnership with them is a further accelerant with our growth,” Mize said.
PostProcess also announced late last year a partnership with Materialise, an additive manufacturing company that provides software to the industry. The two companies are integrating some of their software platforms, and Materialise has also chosen to use PostProcess' automated and connected gross de-powdering solution.
PostProcess in August added about 3,000 square feet to its headquarters, bringing total space to about 21,500 square feet.
Correction: A previous version of this story stated that PostProcess was expected to double gross revenue by 2026. The company expects to grow revenue 10x by 2026.
