Descriptiontext

Sivantos is one of the world's leading manufacturers of hearing aids, tracing its origins to the Siemens hearing aid business unit before being spun off as an independent entity in January 2015. Headquartered in Singapore as Sivantos Pte. Ltd., the company designed, manufactured, and distributed hearing aid devices and complementary digital services including an online hearing test and a Shopfinder tool that connected consumers with local hearing care professionals. Its technology portfolio centered on AI-enabled hearing aids and tele-audiology platforms, positioning Sivantos alongside Sonova, Demant, and Cochlear as one of the four major manufacturers in the global audiology devices market.

The company's go-to-market relied on a network of certified hearing care professionals and audiologists rather than direct-to-consumer retail, with devices dispensed and fitted through professional channels that provided calibration and ongoing service. Sivantos also built a hearing benefits distribution channel through the April 2018 strategic partnership and acquisition of TruHearing, extending reach into US managed-care and employer-benefit pathways. Revenue was generated primarily through hardware sales of medical-grade hearing aids priced as prescribed devices varying by technology tier, supplemented by digital lead-generation assets including audibene, acquired in March 2015.

On March 1, 2019, Sivantos Group merged with Denmark-based Widex to form WS Audiology A/S, combining two of the largest hearing aid manufacturers into a single global entity headquartered in Lynge, Denmark. Following the merger, Sivantos operates as a subsidiary within WS Audiology and the Sivantos.com website now functions as a legacy corporate site directing visitors to wsa.com, with current operations conducted under the WS Audiology brand.
