Belintra

What Belintra does

Belintra NV is a Belgian designer and manufacturer of healthcare logistics equipment, founded in 1965 in Semmerzake and operating today as a subsidiary of ScanModul International Holding (itself acquired by Asker Healthcare Group in July 2025). Originally active in industrial laundry, the company pivoted to hospital logistics in the 1990s and now describes itself as the market leader in Belgium for sterile workflow and intra-hospital transport solutions, with an active distributor presence in France, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, and the United States. The portfolio spans five product families: mobile IT workstations and medication carts (BELINTRA COWs, Medicarts, Roll-IT); the Sterisystem® sterile logistics flow including MDR Class 1 certified Dry-Base® instrument baskets, Steri-TOP lids, Perfo-Safe® wire shelving, Stericart® open and closed case carts; modular transport and storage (UBeFlex®, UBeTrack™, OptiScanBan®, CSSD/SPD packing tables, stackers); ScanModul®-branded modular cabinets and trolleys; and the recently launched Push-to-Order electronic labels for pharmacy restocking.

The business is predominantly a direct field-sales enterprise hardware model: Area Managers cover Belgium and export territories through daily hospital visits, supplemented by senior sales and marketing leadership (Dirk Deruytere, Sales and Marketing Director) and active trade-congress participation (World Sterilization Congress, IAAS, SF2S, DGSV, AFISO/ASTER). International reach is accelerated by a distribution agreement with Halyard (Owens & Minor): exclusive in North America from July 2018 and non-exclusive in EMEA from February 2019. Pricing is quote-based (no public list), invoiced EUR EXW Semmerzake per Incoterms 2000, with a 30% prepayment required for orders above €50,000. Manufacturing and final assembly take place at the Semmerzake headquarters, with metal machining, welding, powder coating, and sub-assembly performed at partner WAAK's sheltered workshop (described as an extension of Belintra's own assembly unit).

Customers are overwhelmingly healthcare providers — public and private hospitals and hospital networks — with named references including ZNA (15-hospital Antwerp network that expanded from 65 to 130 Medicarts), Heilig Hart Lier, AZ Sint-Maria Halle, Saxenburgh Medisch Centrum, and a non-hospital deployment with Brussels Airport Fire Rescue. The company holds EN ISO 9001:2015 certification (renewed March 2024) and EU MDR Class 1 registration for Dry-Base® and Steri-TOP. Approximately 32 Belintra employees operate alongside ~4–5 WAAK workers; the broader ScanModul International Holding group employs approximately 100 FTE.
