Nowadays, the manufacture and export of medical technology and equipment has strong potential in the Czech Republic. This sector has a high share of innovations, and many companies from this sector finance their own research and development, cooperating with scientific institutions and universities.
Therefore, many Czech companies have developed new solutions and innovative products.
The most significant companies in this sector include LINET (hospital beds), BMT Medical Technology (sterilising devices), ELLa-CS (biodegradable stents), MEDIN (medical instruments for surgery, C-NAIL calcaneal nail), BEZNOSKA (growing endoprosthesis of femur) and BLOCK (turnkey solutions in healthcare).
Top medical beds from LINET featured in the American series House of Cards or in the Bond film Casino Royale, among others. Czech companies also provide complex turnkey supplies of healthcare facilities and departments with already implemented projects throughout the world (for example in Laos, Papua New Guniea, Gabun and Georgia). Among new technologies, we can list NANOVIA and Nanopharma, producers of nanofibres for medical purposes. PARDAM NANO4FIBERS produces reusable nanofibre masks. The Czech Republic is also a major global producer of electron microscopes with companies like Thermo Fisher Scientific and TESCAN GROUP for example.
