Terumo's unique technology
makes medical treatment
kinder and gentler
The physicians, led by Dr. Shibasaburo Kitasato, that founded Terumo
in 1921 to design and make superior thermometers had a larger goal:
healthier living abetted by superior medical technology. The will
to contribute to society through better health care still drives every
Terumo employee. In the 21st century, Terumo is rising to the challenge
of making health care more accessible and suitable to a range of needs,
wherever in the world we possibly can.
Expanding the reach of our global technology
Microtechnology. Regenerative medicine. Biocompatible materials. As
these and other innovations combine to accelerate the pace of new
medical product development, Terumo is pioneering implantable left-ventricular
assist systems, artificial vessels, minimally invasive surgery devices,
nano-capsule and more.
Terumo's mission: to lead technology in ways that make its medical
products as practical to use as possible, and spread their use for
the benefit of more patients and health practitioners throughout the
world.
Introducing more people-friendly products
Time and technology touch everyone's life. At Terumo, we stay true
to our mission to apply the latest advances to everyone's advantage
in the quest for better medical care. By innovating and introducing
a range of products to prevent infection and reduce risk to patients
and medical practitioners, we advance our longstanding commitment
to offer products that are as safe, patient-friendly and trouble-free
as possible for people to make. Ultimately, such peace of mind is
priceless.
Making home health care easier and more comfortable
Interest in home healthcare and preventive medicine is growing. So
is demand for care beyond what hospitals and other conventional medical
service providers offer. Terumo's patient-centric focus on home medicine
is a vital factor in maintaining high quality-of-life standards, with
minimal disruption to comfortable routines. Collaboration with the
most progressive innovators in the field brings us closer to our aim:
to develop medical services that help people live life to the fullest.
