Long-standing expertise in dialysis and value-based care

This provided our teams with a very detailed knowledge of dialysis, which has led us to a number of breakthroughs. From the leading-edge invention of polysulfone dialyzers to the production of dialysis fluids and drugs for kidney diseases, Fresenius Medical Care continues to push innovation through its constant commitment to excellence.
Every day, we remain faithful to the same principle that inspired Dr. Eduard Fresenius throughout his career: an unwavering commitment to quality.
