XO CARE A/S Announces Change of Ownership
Hørsholm, Denmark, July 1, 2026: XO CARE A/S, the Denmark-based dental unit manufacturer, today announced that ownership of the company will transfer to Impilo. The change follows the decision of Kim Sørensen, majority owner and CEO, to retire after successfully leading the business for several decades.
XO CARE was founded in 1951 by Verner Sørensen, father of Kim Sørensen. Kim later assumed leadership of the family business and, over subsequent decades, played a central role in developing XO CARE into the leading company it is today, with a strong reputation for innovation, ergonomics and high-quality dental equipment and instruments. “We have consistently prioritised innovation, ergonomics and product quality, and I am proud of what the company and its people have achieved. I am happy to pass the ownership to Impilo as the new owner because I am confident, they will continue this journey”, said Kim Sørensen.
“The priorities that have defined XO CARE – innovation, ergonomics and product quality remain, and we look forward to the journey ahead with our team, customers and partners and Impilo”, said Mark Hvidberg da Silva, who following the change in ownership formally takes the step from Deputy CEO to CEO. Kim Sørensen will remain involved with the company in an advisory capacity while leadership will otherwise remain unchanged.
The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
