Bactiguard is a global medtech company with a purpose to prevent infections. We provide safe, cost-effective, and easy-to-use infection prevention technology and solutions across five therapeutic areas – orthopedics, urology, intravascular/critical care, dental, and wound care. Bactiguard's unique technology is based on a thin noble metal coating that prevents bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on medical devices. Bactiguard's solutions are biocompatible and make a positive impact by decreasing patient suffering, saving lives and healthcare resources, and fighting antimicrobial resistance, one of the most serious threats to global health and modern medicine. Bactiguard operates through license partnerships with leading global medtech companies, such as BD and Zimmer Biomet, differentiating their medical devices with our technology, and through the Bactiguard Infection Protection (BIP) product portfolio. BIP includes coated medical devices such as catheters and trauma implants, and wound care products and sutures.
