In a recent press release, Healthmark announced that it has been acquired by Getinge, a Swedish public healthcare provider of innovative solutions for operating rooms, intensive-care units, sterilization departments, cardiovascular procedures and for life science companies and institutions.
This strategic step enhances Getinge’s presence within sterile reprocessing in the US and facilitates a global expansion for Healthmark.
Mark Basile, President of Healthmark, states: “We are pleased with Healthmark being integrated into the Getinge family. This combination makes sense due to the minimal overlap in our product portfolios. By bringing together our strengths, we are well positioned to better serve our customers, gain greater control over our supply chain and finished products, and expand our reach outside the United States.”
“We are excited and honored to team up with Healthmark”, says Stéphane Le Roy, President Surgical Workflows at Getinge. “Together we will offer a broad range of solutions to sterile processing departments in hospitals. Healthmark’s position in the field of consumables for cleaning verification and packaging will be an ideal complement to our consumables, reprocessing capital equipment, and software solutions. The acquisition strengthens Getinge’s position in the infection prevention sector in the US, and our global customer reach in Europe and Asia will also accelerate Healthmark’s international development.”
