Medical materials

Medical consumables are of central importance in the healthcare sector.

Importance of consumables in the healthcare sector

Medical consumables are essential for the daily work of nursing staff and doctors. If these materials are missing, this can have serious consequences: Without examination gloves, the risk of spreading infectious diseases increases significantly. If dressing materials are missing, wounds cannot be properly treated, leading to infections and prolonged healing processes. A lack of surgical instruments can delay surgical procedures or make them impossible, which can have life-threatening consequences in an emergency.

Involvement of action medeor

In many regions around the world, the supply of these materials is poor. Especially in overcrowded hospitals and for people whose bodies are already weakened, the lack of medical supplies can quickly have life-threatening consequences.

Medical consumables are therefore part of action medeor's standard range, alongside medicines and medical equipment. In action medeor's 4,000 square meter medical warehouse, we store bandages, cannulas, catheter sets, respiratory tubes, examination gloves, face masks and many other products that are urgently needed for the operation of medical facilities.
