With the acquisition of Chr. Diener in 2022, Koscher & Würtz in 2023, and Rudischhauser in 2026 Gilde Healthcare is forming a leading group of specialized contract manufacturers. Building on market leading reputations and many decades of experience, the companies specialize in designing and manufacturing precision surgical instruments. The group manufactures reusable- and disposable instruments, for world-class Original Equipment Manufacturers in various fields of surgery, including orthopaedic- and spinal surgery, endoscopy and neurosurgery.

The group employes c. 350 highly skilled workers across four production locations in the Tuttlingen area (Germany), the Global center of surgical instrument production. Being part of one group allows the companies to offer their clients an even broader portfolio of products, while benefitting from the sharing of expertise and best practices.

With ongoing consolidation in the surgical instrument market, Gilde Healthcare sees opportunities to continue to expand the group through further acquisitions.
