Medical Devices

Medical devices range from silicone, implants, prostheses and pacemakers to crutches, needles, thermometers, patches, condoms and technological devices such as health trackers or watches.

The industry has seen many innovative companies and products in the last couple of years. However, the European law on medical devices has become stricter recently due to various scandals. Switzerland is gradually adjusting its medical devices law, closely modelled on the new EU-requirements. The aim is to improve the safety and quality of medical devices.

Keeping up with new and stricter requirements may seem like a challenge. Let our experienced professionals help you determine in what areas you need to make adjustments in order to comply with the law or – if you are about to launch a product – what you need to pay attention to.
