Mölnlycke Health Care and Etteplan to commence cooperation

Mölnlycke Health Care in Sweden has chosen Etteplan as its product development partner for two new innovative products, which the company is planning to introduce in the coming years. Mölnlycke Health Care is a world leading manufacturer of wound care and single-use surgical products and a service provider to the healthcare sector.

Etteplan’s responsibilities include full responsibility of project management and prototyping of the products including all required technical and regulatory competencies.

Etteplan has a long track record in the development of medical devices for companies such as NeoDynamics, Vivoline, Invacare, Getinge, CefarCompex, and Redsense.

– We chose Etteplan to complement our product development teams because of the company´s unique competencies and track record in helping speed up time-to-market. It is important for us to keep some core product development activities in-house, whereas we see the benefits of acquiring specific competencies from Etteplan, says Cecilia Rydin Development Manager for New Therapy Areas at Mölnlycke.
