Our History
Ferrosan Medical Devices is a global leader in gelatine-based hemostatic and biopsy products, supporting healthcare professionals in more than 100 countries. Our successful journey began approximately 70 years ago with the launch of SPONGOSTAN™ – our first absorbable hemostatic gelatin sponge.
Our Innovation
Our core technology merges biomaterials like gelatin with active agents such as thrombin to create advanced surgical hemostats. Additionally, we develop, industrialize, and manufacture biopsy devices. With over 35 years of expertise in miniature electromechanics, we specialize in innovative biopsy systems including the world’s first handheld, tetherless, single-insertion device that collects multiple breast tissue samples for faster, more efficient cancer diagnosis.
