Finding a Better Way
We are committed to improving the healthcare experience by creating products that prioritize patient safety, comfort, and efficiency, reflecting our dedication to making a positive impact on lives around the world.
Under Founder Lee McDonald’s leadership, Southmedic has thrived by adhering to a core philosophy of “Finding a Better Way,” challenging traditional thinking, and delivering innovative solutions that improve healthcare globally. This philosophy is embedded in every aspect of our operations, from product development to customer service.
For over 40 years now, right back to our humble beginnings in Hamilton, ON, Southmedic has been Canadian owned and operated, and our current manufacturing and distribution campus in Barrie, ON continues to generate some of the most innovative medical products Canada has to offer.
With over 600 employees, Lee and the team continue to believe in Canadian innovation and supporting the Canadian jobs that go into making our products of the highest quality that ‘find a better way’ in today’s healthcare landscape the world over.
How Do We Accomplish This?
We achieve our mission through relentless research and development, focusing on creating proprietary medical products that set new industry standards. For example, our in-house R&D team pushes the boundaries of innovation, resulting in products like the Oxy2Mask and Precision Plus Safety Scalpels (PPSS), which not only meet but exceed the expectations of healthcare providers.
Our commitment to quality is unwavering, as seen in our cleanroom manufacturing processes and our rigorous quality assurance protocols. Moreover, our customer-centric approach ensures that we are not just a supplier, but a trusted partner in healthcare, providing technical support, knowledge, and solutions that truly address the needs of our clients.
In addition, Southmedic’s global distribution network, coupled with our Canadian Distribution Division, ensures that our innovative products are available and supported in over 80 countries, making us a trusted leader in healthcare innovation.
