Unprecedented disruptions to our supply chain ignited our commitment to deliver for you — and we’re on the road to recovery.
Meeting your needs has shaped our recovery road map:
- Resilience: Reenforced our supply chain
- Relentless innovation: Introduced new features across stapling and energy
- Ready: Prepared to take you into tomorrow with a choice of open, robotic, or lap surgical solutions
See how we’re recovering across stapling and energy.
A resilient partner
The COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical upset, and unprecedented weather-related events brought unforeseeable and unprecedented disruptions to our supply chain — and the world.
With fierce commitment to deliver for you, we’ve rallied by:
- Strengthening supplier relations
- Implementing manufacturing continuity strategies
- Optimizing inventory, forecasting and distribution
- Engaging in advocacy
The result? We’ve successfully increased production output and hardened our supply chain. Plus, we’re investing over $100M in production capacity expansion and established healthier habits, including business continuity, risk, and crisis management to ensure we prevent future occurrences that might impact you and your patients.
These efforts have paid off. Our Advanced Energy devices are steadily recovering, and our Stapling technology is beginning to stabilize.
You can rely on the resilience we’re building to be the partner you need for the life-changing work you do — today and tomorrow.
Relentlessly innovating for you
With recovery underway, we're continuing to advance our intelligence-based innovation so you can advance your practice into the future.
We’re also evolving our LigaSure™ Maryland jaw and blunt tip devices to be better for the environment1 while continuing to help you and your patients:
- Eco-friendly: removing the black plastic wrap reduces waste, eliminating 2.7 million feet of plastic each year1
- Reliable: using less plastic helps increase supply chain stability1 so you can be confident your go-to LigaSure™ devices will be on hand when you need them
- Simplified: same great performance with a simplified design of modern, textured stainless steel2
See where we are and what’s next for LigaSure™, Valleylab™ generators, Sonicision™ dissectors, and the Signia™ stapling system with Tri-Staple™ technology.
