With the acquisition, NKT wants to establish Crystal Fibre as the leading supplier of crystal fibre products. Crystal Fibre will have access to technical competences and patents that to a large extent complement those which Crystal Fibre already possesses.

Crystal Fibre and BlazePhotonics have been the leading players in the development and manufacture of microstructured optical fibres (crystal fibres). Crystal fibres are a new range of optical fibres offering significant new possibilities and functionality within a broad range of applications including fibre lasers, telecommunications, entertainment and optical components in general.
