hestomed is your reliable partner for high-quality medical technology, practical medical consumables, and customized equipment solutions within the healthcare sector. We develop and distribute innovative products designed to meet the rigorous demands of emergency services, hospitals, and mobile medical operations worldwide.
Our medical technology is created in close collaboration with end-users, specialist trade partners, vehicle outfitters, and medical professionals. Many products in our *redfamily* series are manufactured in-house at Werkzeugbau Hartmann GmbH.
By incorporating real-world operational expertise from the very outset, we make medical products more efficient, safer, and more ergonomic—ensuring optimal workflows in the daily operations of emergency and healthcare services. One example: Our proven *redox.tube* system is now considered standard equipment in almost all emergency vehicles manufactured in Germany, demonstrating how practice-oriented medical technology sets new benchmarks.

In January, a hestomed team travelled to India to service a mobile intensive care unit on board a Boeing 777. Amidst ventilators, customs adventures and night markets, we spoke to Moritz Bugner and Amir Mustafic about technology, teamwork and the magic of everyday life in India.
