Bio Compression Systems

What Bio Compression Systems does

Bio Compression Systems, Inc. is a privately held U.S. medical device manufacturer founded in 1983 and headquartered in Moonachie, New Jersey. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes pneumatic compression therapy devices and compression garments for the treatment of lymphatic and circulatory disorders. Its core technology is a non-peristaltic action system designed to mimic the body's natural muscle pump function, applying calibrated gradient pressure to reduce swelling, decrease pain, and improve range of motion.

The product portfolio spans sequential compression pumps (SC series with 4, 8, and 16-chamber configurations), an arterial pump (Bio Arterial Plus) for peripheral arterial disease, DVT prophylaxis systems (Multi-FLO DVT Combo and VascuEase), a cold compression pump (BioCryo) for sports medicine and post-operative recovery, and a comprehensive line of compression garments including custom-tailored options. The company has accumulated a clinical evidence library over four decades, including peer-reviewed studies supporting efficacy across lymphedema, wound care, and arterial applications.

Bio Compression Systems operates a B2B go-to-market model, distributing devices through DME (Durable Medical Equipment) suppliers and clinicians via a dedicated DME/Clinician portal with credit application processes and custom garment ordering. End patients typically access devices through physician prescriptions for home use. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of pumps and garments, with quote-based pricing for institutional buyers. The company operates primarily in the U.S. domestic market and has no disclosed funding, M&A activity, or significant leadership changes in the available data.
