Based in Minnesota, US, Smiths Medical is a leading provider of interventional medical devices for the hospital, emergency, home and specialist environments. Its products are used during critical and intensive care, surgery, pre- and postoperative care, and in a series of high-end home infusion therapies. The company also offers products for veterinary and industrial use.
The company’s product portfolio serves three main markets:
Vital Care – including airway products, patient monitoring, temperature management and IVF reproduction solutions
Medication Delivery – including drug-delivery systems, chemotherapy delivery systems and diabetes pumps
Safety Devices – including needle protection devices and peripheral IV catheters.
Brands within this portfolio include: Portex, Medex, Deltec, Level 1, Pneupac, Wallace, CADD, BCI, Jelco, Medfusion, Graseby and SurgiVet.
In March 2009, following a review of its operations, Smiths Medical announced its intention for a gradual exit from the diabetes market since, as its only direct-to-consumer enterprise, it had little synergy with the rest of the company’s businesses. The company’s diabetes portfolio included Deltec Cosmo insulin pumps and Cleo and Comfort infusion sets.
Smiths Medical competes with different businesses across a range of product areas. Its main competitors include: Baxter, Covidien, Teleflex/Arrow, B Braun, Becton Dickinson, Hospira, Alaris (CareFusion), Arizant, Edwards Lifesciences and Codan.
Smiths Medical employs some 8,400 people globally, with manufacturing concentrated in the US, the UK, Mexico, Germany, Italy and China.
Smiths Medical is part of the Smiths Group, a UK-based technology company which, in addition to Smiths Medical, operates four other divisions – Smiths Detection (manufacture of sensors that detect and identify explosives, narcotics, weapons, chemical agents and contraband); John Crane (products and services for the major process industries, including the oil and gas, chemical, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper and mining sectors); Smiths Interconnect (specialised electronic and radio frequency components and sub-systems) and Flex-Tek (engineered components that heat and move fluids and gases, flexible hosing and rigid tubing). Smiths Medical is the largest contributor to its parent company revenues, generating 31% of the group’s total sales and 37% of group profit.
In January, Smiths Group rejected a US$2.45 billion offer for Smiths Medical from an undisclosed suitor. The Group turned down the “best and final” offer and said it would not be in the interests of shareholders to pursue discussions on the basis of an indication “at this price level.”
