WHO WE ARE
A Pioneering Furnace Legacy to Sapphire Crystal Growth
FAMETEC is a European company born from the innovation and expertise of the EBNER Group, a leader in industrial plant engineering with over 75 years of experience in furnace design.
FAMETEC’s story began in 2012, when EBNER’s research and development efforts led to the successful development of a unique furnace specifically designed for growing high-quality sapphire single crystals.
Following this breakthrough, FAMETEC spun off from EBNER in 2020. FAMETEC leverages EBNER’s extensive knowledge in furnace design and crystal growth methods to continuously develop McSAP furnaces, allowing us to focus on cutting-edge technology while benefiting from EBNER’s established production capabilities.

SUSTAINABILITY AT THE CORE
Our Green Sapphire Vision
Extensive knowledge of the sapphire market and commitment to sustainability
FAMETEC prioritizes sustainability throughout its operations. This is exemplified by its key role in the “ARCTIC Sapphire“ project, Europe’s pioneering „Zero-Emission“ sapphire crystal production facility established in 2019. The Norway-based facility draws entirely on hydropower for its energy needs, drastically minimizing its environmental impact.
This operation underscores our dedication to the mission of providing zero-emission sapphire material. We aim to reduce dependence on sapphire suppliers within jurisdictions of concern while significantly contributing to CO2 reduction goals. With their innovative approach and commitment to sustainability, FAMETEC and its operating partners are shaping the future of the sapphire market.
