U.Jet

What U.Jet does

U.Jet S.r.l. is an Italian manufacturer of sterile single-use medical devices for the operating room, founded in 1983 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Servizi Ospedalieri SpA. The company designs and produces surgical drapes (teli chirurgici), sterile gowns (camici sterili), procedure packs and kits (pacchi procedurali), caps, and accessories across 493 SKUs in approximately 20 clinical categories, including orthopaedics, urology, gynaecology, ophthalmology, angiography, cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, and dialysis. Production is fully vertically integrated in-house across two facilities — the main plant in Bastia Umbra, Italy, and a wholly-owned Romanian subsidiary — running from Hotmelt lamination of base materials through automated and manual converting, procedure-pack assembly, and ethylene oxide sterilization, all under computerised control.

The business operates a direct B2B enterprise sales model with no intermediaries, targeting approximately 600 hospital, clinic, and outpatient healthcare customers across all regions of Italy. Each customer is assigned a dedicated account contact for orders, technical consultation, and documentation; bespoke procedure kits are assembled to hospital-specific protocols. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with reserved portal access for registered partners. All products are CE-marked under EU MDR 2017/745 and certified to ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 (both valid until 2028), with EN 13795 compliance for surgical drapes and gowns. The company employs approximately 100 staff and reported €10 million in revenue for fiscal year 2021, the most recent figure publicly stated. Beyond the surgical core, U.Jet has extended into adjacent verticals — dental, veterinary, wellness, industrial PPE, and community apparel — broadening the addressable market within its existing manufacturing footprint.

Broad incumbents

• Medline Industries: US-headquartered, privately held manufacturer and distributor of medical supplies including surgical drapes, gowns, and procedure packs. Competes with U.Jet across European hospital supply contracts, with broader portfolio and scale.
• Cardinal Health: US-listed medical products distributor and manufacturer with a substantial surgical products portfolio (drapes, gowns, packs) sold across Europe. Overlaps with U.Jet on procedure packs and OR consumables through hospital supply agreements.
• 3M Health Care: Major multinational with a legacy surgical drapes and gowns line (now under Solventum post-spinoff). Competes across the same hospital procurement channels with significantly broader portfolio and global scale.
• Halyard (Owens & Minor): Owens & Minor's surgical solutions business supplying surgical drapes, gowns, and sterilization packaging under the Halyard brand. Comparable product mix to U.Jet with broader geographic reach and integrated sterilization capability.

Direct peers

• Paul Hartmann AG: German medical and hygiene products manufacturer with a dedicated surgical consumables range (Foliodrape drapes, surgical gowns, procedure sets). Closely comparable mid-sized European competitor with similar customization and sterilization capabilities.
• Lohmann & Rauscher: German-Austrian manufacturer of single-use surgical drapes, gowns, and custom procedure packs (Sentinex, Kitpack). Direct competitor in European OR consumables with similar mid-market positioning and customization emphasis.
• Mölnlycke Health Care: Swedish-headquartered global leader in single-use surgical drapes, gowns, and procedure packs (ProcedurePak). Directly comparable product portfolio, customer base (hospitals/OR), and integrated manufacturing model; principal competitor in European tenders for surgical consumables.

Emerging players

Regional players

• Multigate Medical Products: Asia-Pacific manufacturer of single-use surgical packs, drapes, and gowns. Comparable product category but primarily serves Australia, New Zealand, and Asian markets rather than competing directly with U.Jet in Italy or the EU.
• Barrier Healthcare / Medline Europe: European arm of Medline Industries competing in Italy and Southern Europe with surgical drapes, gowns, and procedure packs under local distribution. Comparable mid-market European competitor to U.Jet's core Italian footprint.
