Thermo-Calc Software AB, based in Solna, Sweden, has announced its 100% acquisition of QuesTek Europe AB. Previously a joint venture, QuesTek Europe is known for its expertise in integrated computational materials engineering (ICME). The company will now operate under the new name Thermo-Calc Solutions AB, expanding its ability to deliver advanced ICME services alongside software solutions.

Going forward, Thermo-Calc Solutions will leverage Thermo-Calc Software’s suite of products to deliver cutting-edge services in materials design, process simulations, and alloy optimisation. The company aims to enable its clients to accelerate product development, reduce costs, and meet performance and sustainability targets.

“Thermo-Calc Solutions is the next step towards delivering a comprehensive ICME platform,” said Anders Engström, CEO of Thermo-Calc Software AB. “Full integration enables closer collaboration and greater innovation for our global customers.”

The engineering services team, formerly operating as QuesTek Europe, has a history of solving materials challenges across aerospace, energy, industrial, and automotive sectors using a variety of commercial and proprietary modelling design tools and simulation-based workflows. Under Thermo-Calc Solutions, the group will retain its experienced workforce while gaining broader resources and visibility within the Thermo-Calc network.

“This new name reflects our identity and mission,” said Ida Berglund, Managing Director of Thermo-Calc Solutions. “Clients can expect the same dedication to innovation and engineering excellence, now more tightly aligned with the software and tools that power our work.”

The integration delivers key benefits for customers, including tighter cooperation between engineering services and Thermo-Calc’s software products and seamless ICME workflows from simulation to material deployment. Customers will also benefit from expanded global support across Europe, North America, and Asia, along with a unified brand experience that combines software, data, and engineering solutions.
