Bactiguard expands partnership with Mediplast in Europe

Bactiguard expands its partnership with Mediplast to include Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. The previous agreement covered sales and distribution of Bactiguard’s product portfolio for infection prevention (BIP) in Scandinavia. Mediplast now becomes distributor of the BIP portfolio in six European countries.

“By teaming up with Mediplast and their experienced, professional team, we are confident that our European market expansion will accelerate. At the same time, we will achieve economies of scale by working with one distributor for several countries”, says Christian Kinch, CEO at Bactiguard.

“Mediplast has the ambition to grow in Europe and we are happy to expand our collaboration with Bactiguard, an exciting company in an expansive phase with high-end products. Bactiguard’s strong brand together with their focus on infection prevention makes us highly motivated to extend our cooperation to more markets”, says Johan Bongstorp, CEO at Mediplast.

The partnership is based on an exclusive distribution agreement for the entire Bactiguard infection prevention (BIP) portfolio, which includes products for the urinary tract, blood stream and respiratory tract, and covers Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.

The new distribution agreement for the Benelux countries replaces a previous agreement with Ecomed Services NV, which has now been terminated.
