License Partnerships

We develop a safe, biocompatible technology that prevents medical-device-related infections, and through licensing partnerships, we bring our innovation into the global device market so that patients everywhere can benefit. We collaborate with leading MedTech companies that apply the technology to their medical devices, whether under their own brand or co-branded with Bactiguard.

Our impact ambitions remain bold: to decrease patient suffering, save lives, unburden strained healthcare resources, and help fight against antimicrobial resistance, one of the greatest threats to modern medicine.

Our partnerships are more than a business alliance; they are a joint mission to protect more patients and make a substantial impact in the medical world.

Enhance your medical devices with advanced infection control

Bactiguard’s coating technology offers a comprehensive solution for MedTech companies seeking to differentiate themselves from competition and enhance the performance and success of their medical devices. A Bactiguard coated surface prevents primary adhesion as fewer bacteria attach to the surface, reducing the risk of biofilm formation and subsequent infections.

By reducing the risk of device-related infection, it ensures more consistent treatment outcomes and fewer complications.

This facilitates faster patient recovery and ultimately leads to improved clinical results; a compelling reason to choose your product over the competitor’s. Our coating technology is adaptable to any application area where it is important to reduce the risk of infections.

Support in bringing Bactiguard coated devices to the market 

Bactiguard provides license partners not only with coating technology but also application know-how, for instance through setting up manufacturing production lines. Providing clinical expertise, sales and marketing support, coupled with comprehensive training on our technology’s functionality and value, we ensure that our partners are well-equipped to effectively market and sell their Bactiguard coated products. This includes engaging with healthcare professionals and other stakeholders within the healthcare system. 

We support our partners by:

  • Technology and know-how
  • Regulatory guidance and expertise
  • Sales and marketing support and training
  • Medical and clinical expertise

A vision to become the global standard of care

At Bactiguard, we are driven by a vision far beyond business success – we are committed to becoming the global standard of care in infection control, because we believe the best way to protect against infections is to prevent them.

Our goal is clear: to make our innovative infection control solutions universally available, setting a new benchmark for medical device safety and efficacy.

By integrating Bactiguard’s coating technology, your MedTech company can be at the forefront of this transformative journey, making a profound impact on global healthcare.

License partners

Bactiguard has had a successful license partnership with CR Bard since the early 90s, now BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company), one of the market leaders within the urology field. 

Well Lead Medical, China’s leading manufacturer of consumable medical devices, has since 2018 the exclusive right to market and sell Bactiguard coated Foley catheters in China.

Bactiguard has a licensing partnership with Zimmer Biomet related to orthopedic trauma implants, for which Bactiguard received a CE mark for the coated version in 2021.

 

Manufacturing

We work collaboratively to customize the coating manufacturing process for each specific device, ensuring safe and efficient large-scale production. Leveraging our extensive expertise, we are equipped to mass-produce and reliably meet increasing demands without fail. Our coated products do not necessitate specific packaging requirements and can be sterilized using standardized methods, providing flexibility and convenience. Furthermore, the manufacturing process is designed to be hazard-free, guaranteeing worker safety without the need for additional safety certifications, thus maintaining a high standard of operational integrity.
