Natec Medical is a global leader specializing in the design and production of endovascular devices.
With nearly three decades of industry-leading manufacturing experience, we operate as a world-class CDMO (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization). This means global healthcare brands trust us as an all-in-one partner to handle the entire journey of a medical device under one roof: from the initial design and prototyping, through to rigorous safety testing, cleanroom manufacturing, and final sterilization.
To support our growing capabilities, we recently relocated our operations to the state-of-the-art AVA Technopark in Mauritius- the region’s premier technological park dedicated entirely to medical devices technology. From this modern infrastructure, we combine decades of engineering discipline with advanced precision to build products that save patient lives around the world
