What Vygon does
Vygon is a French-headquartered, privately held medical device manufacturer founded in 1962 that designs and produces sterile single-use and electronic medical devices organized into seven therapeutic categories: vascular access, enteral feeding, hemodynamic monitoring, regional anesthesia and pain management, respiratory care, surgical consumables, and urinary care. Its portfolio spans acute dialysis catheters, central and peripheral venous catheters, PICC lines, midlines, implantable ports, neonatal-specific feeding systems (Nutrisafe2, celebrating a 20-year heritage in 2026), ISO 80369-3 / 80369-6 compliant safety connectors (ENFit/Nutrifit, NRFit), nerve block and epidural delivery systems, endotracheal tubes and Boussignac CPAP accessories, and the MostCare Up hemodynamic monitor. The company invests approximately 5% of revenue into R&D through a 60-person team operating across four development centers in France and Germany, supported by a portfolio of 183 globally filed patents.
Vygon produces roughly 210 million medical devices per year from predominantly European factories in Écouen (SIPV, SIPA), Belgium (Dimequip), and Germany, and sells through 26 wholly-owned subsidiaries and complementary distribution partners serving healthcare facilities in over 120 countries. Revenue is generated almost entirely through B2B hardware sales of single-use devices under quote-based, multi-year procurement contracts negotiated with hospitals, clinical departments, and group purchasing organizations; no consumer-facing pricing is published. The company employs 2,783 people globally and is led by CEO Ludovic Richard-Vitton and Chairman Stéphane Regnault, with CFO Anne Najaint and a broader executive team overseeing strategy, manufacturing, operations, and international deployment.
FY2025 reported revenue was €423 million, reflecting the cumulative scale of organic expansion and a steady M&A track record (Perouse Medical 2015, Advanced Perfusion Diagnostics 2020, Macatt Medica 2022, Stiletto 2026). Co-development partnerships with Institut Curie (oncology safety devices, Qimono line) and Carmat (artificial heart connectivity) extend the company's specialization into adjacent safety-critical niches, while management rotations in the UK and German subsidiaries during 2026 signal continued investment in commercial leadership across its two largest European markets.
