What SteelcoBelimed does
SteelcoBelimed designs, manufactures, and services cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization systems for medical devices, flexible endoscopes, laboratory instruments, and pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment. The portfolio spans automated endoscope reprocessors (EW Series, EPW 100 S), drying and storage cabinets with up to 840-hour microbiological integrity (ED Series), and cGMP-compliant parts washers (PH, DS, LC Series) for pharmaceutical and biotech customers. Core proprietary technology includes the One-Time Connection System (OCS), a single-connection architecture shared across pre-wash, wash/disinfection, and drying/storage stages that reduces handling and cross-contamination risk, and the SteelcoData Suite (Live, Pro, SD Ares) for real-time equipment monitoring, instrument traceability, and endoscope reprocessing management. Products are engineered to comply with EN ISO 15883-1/4/5, EN ISO 14937, MDR 2017/745, revised EU Annex 1, and 21 CFR Part 11.
The business operates three primary verticals — Healthcare (hospital CSSD/SPD, endoscopy, general ward/elderly care), Lab & Research (laboratories, biomedical research facilities), and Pharma & Med Tech (pharmaceutical, biotech, cosmetics manufacturing) — across Europe, the Americas, APAC, the Middle East, and Africa. Revenue is generated primarily through capital-equipment hardware sales, with supporting streams in technical services, training (SteelcoBelimed Academy), validated process chemicals and consumables, and emerging cloud-ready software subscriptions. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with direct engagement of hospital sterile processing departments, endoscopy units, and pharma manufacturing sites, complemented by channel partners such as In Vitro Technologies for exclusive ANZ distribution. The company is a member of the Miele Group, formed from the June 2024 joint venture between Metall Zug and Miele combining Steelco and Belimed, headquartered in Zug, Switzerland, with manufacturing in Riese Pio X (Treviso), Italy, and an Innovation Hub opened in Zug in July 2025.
