Alacer Biomédica

What Alacer Biomédica does

Alacer Biomédica is a privately held Brazilian medical-device manufacturer founded in 2000 and headquartered in São Paulo. The company develops diagnostic equipment, consumables, and training services for gastroenterology, urology, and pelvic floor physiotherapy. Its customers include gastroenterologists, urologists, pelvic floor physiotherapists, hospitals, and diagnostic centers in Brazil, with additional reach through distributor partners in Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Angola, Nigeria, and South Africa. The company operates with a headcount in the 11–50 band and runs a manufacturing facility co-located with its headquarters.

The product portfolio is organized across four clinical channels. The MULTIPLEX platform supports both esophageal and anorectal high-resolution manometry in 12-channel high-definition or 24- and 36-channel high-resolution configurations using perfusion-based pressure measurement. The AL-4 ZpH system performs pHmetry and impedance-pHmetry for detection of acid and non-acid gastroesophageal reflux. The H2X device measures expired hydrogen for diagnosis of lactose intolerance, SIBO, and related carbohydrate malabsorption conditions. The Uranus II system delivers urodynamics and uroflowmetry compliant with ICS standards, and an EMG biofeedback platform supports pelvic floor evaluation and rehabilitation. The portfolio is complemented by a full range of single-use probes, catheters, balloon probes, and accessories that drive recurring revenue.

Alacer generates revenue primarily through capital-equipment sales and consumable (probe and accessory) sales, supplemented by professional training services and remote technical support. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales targeting healthcare providers, event-driven demand generation through medical conferences such as SBAD, and a community-led education model anchored on long-standing partnerships with MoDiNe (hands-on manometry training) and NAFAD (scientific content, including the Motility On podcast). International distribution operates through regional partners, supported by in-person training courses in Chile and Argentina. The company has no disclosed external funding and is organized as a Brazilian limitada (LTDA).
