What BTL zdravotnická technika, a.s. does

BTL zdravotnická technika, a.s. is a Czech joint-stock medical device manufacturer founded in 1993 and headquartered at Šantrochova 16, Prague 6, operating as part of the international BTL Industries holding group with localized operations in over 30 countries. The company manufactures and sells a broad portfolio of medical equipment across three primary verticals: physiotherapy/rehabilitation (BTL-4000, BTL-5000, BTL-6000 series covering electrotherapy, ultrasound with HANDSFREE SONO, laser, magnetotherapy using FMF technology, cryotherapy, diathermy, lymph drainage, traction, and spinal decompression), cardiology (the unified BTL CardioPoint software platform integrating resting ECG, stress test, Holter, ABPM, spirometry, and the SDS sudden-death screening module, plus wireless BTL FLEXI ECG), and aesthetic medicine (EXION AI-powered fractional RF platform, EXILIS, EXILITE, EMBODY, and X-Wave devices). In January 2025 the company entered interventional cardiac electrophysiology with the Easy Pulz Pulsed Field Ablation catheter system for atrial fibrillation, co-developed with Nemocnice Na Homolce and 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University.

The business model is primarily B2B hardware sales to licensed healthcare professionals (per Czech advertising law No. 40/1995 Coll.), distributed through a multi-channel structure including a direct e-shop (btl-shop.cz), a Prague showroom at CUBE for demonstrations, and an international distribution network via BTL Group country subsidiaries. Recurring revenue is generated through authorized device servicing (including exclusive FOTONA service), software support, and paid professional training workshops (e.g., 700 CZK per workshop). R&D operates from Prague with manufacturing in Benešov. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; sales are conducted via direct inquiry and e-commerce. Distribution partnerships with KAPS (microscopes/colposcopes), Kinetec (CPM devices), OXY.LIFE (oxygen concentrators), and Extremiter (vacuum-compression therapy) extend the catalog beyond manufactured products. The company holds ISO certifications and operates in compliance with EU GDPR (data controller: BTL Medical Technologies s.r.o., IČO 28978404).
