What Multigate Medical Products does

Multigate Medical Products Pty Limited, founded in 1986 and headquartered at Villawood, New South Wales, is an Australian privately held manufacturer and supplier of surgical procedure packs and single-use medical consumables serving public and private hospitals across Australia and New Zealand. The company employs approximately 450 people, with the majority based at its Villawood head office and manufacturing site, and operates a 5,900 square metre distribution facility in Derrimut, Victoria, alongside automated distribution capability at Yennora.

Its core product platform centres on custom and off-the-shelf procedure packs — over 2,000 configurations spanning 14 surgical specialties including wound management, general surgery, orthopaedics, obstetrics and gynaecology, urology, cardiovascular, neurology and ophthalmology — built from more than 1,800 components. Complementary branded lines include CubeWare 2.0 hollowware, Cadence laparoscopic instruments (Gold Good Design Award 2019), Protex4 surgical drapes, Pro-Zone sterilization wraps, ProSeries and V-Tex surgical gowns (AAMI Levels 2, 3 and 4), SafeCount needle counters, MamaCool perineal cooling pads and Fluro-Tec X-ray detectable abdominal sponges. Manufacturing leverages direct ownership stakes in Chinese production facilities and a supplier base of approximately 200-300 partners across China, Malaysia, Singapore, Pakistan, the UK, India, Taiwan, Vietnam, Burma, the USA and Australia.

Revenue is generated through one-time sales of procedure packs and consumables under direct enterprise sales contracts, with custom procedure pack design positioned as a professional services-adjacent offering that reduces picking errors and procedure times. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; standard commercial terms include an AUD$250 minimum order with an AUD$30 freight surcharge below threshold and 30-day payment terms for credit-approved customers. Go-to-market relies on Business Development Managers engaging hospital procurement, clinical staff and management, supplemented by conference participation (notably ACORN national conferences), an R&D co-design community with nurses, and the MxU Learning customer education platform. All Australian procedure packs have been supplied Climate Neutral since 1 July 2022 under South Pole verification, with New Zealand extension from 1 September 2023; the company additionally holds EcoVadis Bronze (top 35% globally) and ISO 9001 quality governance standards. The company is led by CEO Ben Chen and Chairman Peter Chang.
