With the takeover of Andre Surgical GmbH, we are further expanding our manufacturer network and range in the areas of disposable fluid management and specialized microsurgical products and instruments.
The Heintel Group is the exclusive distribution partner in Austria for the American medical technology company Cardinl Health Medical Solutions and is thus significantly expanding the product range in areas such as thoracic drainage, compression and fluid management.
We are investing in simplifying our organizational processes and merging HEI COM. GmbH with the Rudolf Heintel Gesellschaft m.b.H.
