Think surgical instruments – Think Aesculap
“Sharing expertise” has been B. Braun’s philosophy for more than 180 years. Sharing expertise across all divisions of the company helps create a broader and deeper foundation of knowledge for all involved and results in long-term, detailed solutions and maximum safety for the benefit of both, patients and healthcare professionals.
With more than 145 years of experience with surgical instruments, Aesculap is a competent partner for interdisciplinary knowledge sharing. The Aesculap brand represents a varied spectrum that combines high-quality products with process-oriented services both in terms of knowledge and economics. Aesculap is a reliable and recognized partner for the entire surgical process in the hospital.
Aesculap owes its position among the best in the industry to its employees, who are never satisfied with the first idea that appears, but keep testing, studying in detail and refining each development until they find the best possible solution. Aesculap is therefore much more than a supplier of high-precision surgical instruments: We are a partner who listens carefully and contributes ideas, who understands the customer’s needs and wishes and takes them into account at a high level. From products to service and seminars for all areas of activity at the hospital.
