Šiauliai FEZ was established four years ago and has been operating actively for just two years but already has two serious investors. Medicinos Linija UAB, a manufacturer of odontological materials, has leased a 1.5 ha area for production purposes. Works have been started in 2018 and it is estimated that the company's investments will exceed EUR 2 million next year. The company specialises in the materials for dental treatment and prosthodontics. The demand for its products abroad has been increasing as they are relatively cheaper but the quality is very high.
