On January 6, 2025, Exail acquired Leukos, a laser company specializing in advanced laser sources for metrology, spectroscopy, and imaging applications. The financial terms of this acquisition have not been disclosed yet. Leukos will operate as a subsidiary of Exail, retaining its product portfolio and brand.

 



This acquisition combines Leukos' advanced technologies, including pulsed micro lasers, supercontinuum sources, and ultrafast fiber lasers, with Exail's expertise in specialty fibers, modulation, micro optical components, and quantum systems. This merger also expands Exail's product offerings and solutions to address new markets including biophotonics and microelectronics.

It is understood that Exail is a high-tech industrial company specializing in robotics, maritime, navigation, aerospace, and photonics technology. The company was established in 2022 through the merger of ECA Group and iXblue, after Group Gorg é acquired iXblue. The company signed contracts with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory last year.
