Saving lives and advancing healthcare innovations
Schiller India, a proud subsidiary of Schiller AG – a Swiss multinational corporation renowned globally for its cutting-edge medical technology – has made significant strides in the Indian healthcare sector over the past 27 years, firmly establishing itself as a leader in the medical technology industry, offering a wide range of products that cater to the critical needs of healthcare professionals and patients alike.
A legacy of excellence
Schiller AG has a longstanding reputation as a world leader in the manufacturing and supply of devices for cardiopulmonary diagnostics, defibrillation, patient monitoring, and medical software solutions. Drawing on this rich heritage, Schiller India has expanded its portfolio to include critical care, anesthesia, emergency care, cardiology, pulmonology, radiology, and even robotics. This broad range of products is designed to meet the diverse and evolving needs of the Indian healthcare sector.
Innovation
Through a robust research and development (R&D) team, the company has developed homegrown solutions that are specifically tailored to the Indian market. By listening to continuous feedback from healthcare professionals across the country, we ensure that our products are not only innovative but also practical and effective in real-world scenarios.
Cardiac arrest is one of the leading causes of death in India, and timely intervention with the right equipment can make the difference between life and death. Our range of defibrillators, have been designed to be easy to use, reliable, and are available at a price point that makes them accessible to a broader range of healthcare facilities.
Spreading awareness on the use of defibrillators
Schiller India has taken proactive steps to spread awareness about the use of public access defibrillators (AEDs). These AEDs are designed to be used by non-medical personnel in emergencies, significantly increasing the survival rate of individuals suffering from sudden cardiac arrest.
Our commitment to public health extends beyond just providing the devices. The company actively engages with various stakeholders, including medical professionals, local communities, and organizations, such as Rotary clubs, to train both medical and non-medical personnel in the effective use of AEDs. These training programs are vital in ensuring that individuals are prepared to act quickly and confidently in the event of a cardiac emergency, whether it occurs in a public space like a shopping mall, airport, or gym, or in a more private setting such as a residential building.
By promoting the widespread availability and use of AEDs, Schiller India is not only saving lives but also empowering communities to take charge of their health and safety. This initiative reflects our broader mission to make advanced medical technology accessible to everyone, regardless of location or background.
Supporting Make in India
As part of its commitment to contributing to India’s healthcare infrastructure, we have embraced the Government of India’s Make in India initiative. By focusing on local manufacturing, Schiller India is reducing the country’s dependence on imported medical devices, thereby enhancing self-reliance in the healthcare sector.
Schiller India’s R&D team, supported by technological and logistical expertise of its parent company in Switzerland, plays a crucial role in this effort. The team designs and manufactures a range of medical devices, including defibrillators that are specifically engineered to meet the needs of the Indian market. These products are not only aligned with global quality standards but are also developed with an acute awareness of the challenges faced by Indian healthcare providers, such as cost constraints and the need for durable, easy-to-use equipment.
Looking to the future
As Schiller India continues to innovate and expand its product offerings, the company remains steadfast in its commitment to enhancing healthcare outcomes across the country. By combining Swiss precision with Indian ingenuity, we are well-positioned to address the growing demands of the healthcare sector, from advanced diagnostics and critical care solutions to life-saving emergency devices.
In the years to come, Schiller India aims to further deepen its impact on the Indian healthcare landscape, ensuring that high-quality, reliable medical technology is within reach of all. Through ongoing investment in R&D, local manufacturing, and public health initiatives, we are not only contributing to the nation’s healthcare infrastructure but also playing a vital role in saving lives and improving the quality of care for millions of Indians.
Schiller India’s journey over the past 27 years is a testament to the power of innovation, collaboration, and a deep-rooted commitment to making a difference in the lives of people. As the company looks ahead, it will continue to lead the way in shaping the future of healthcare in India, one innovation at a time.
