The German medical machinery industry is prominent in the global healthcare market and is known for its advanced technology and stringent quality standards. In terms of market share, Germany is by far the most significant European market in this area. With a positive domestic market outlook and strong exports, there are substantial growth opportunities within the medical technology industry, which comprises almost entirely small and medium-sized companies. Thanks to high productivity and advanced manufacturing leadership, Germany is an attractive production location. The country enjoys a long and successful mechanical medical engineering and high-quality manufacturing tradition.
