Sol-Millennium Medical Group

We are one of the world's largest manufacturers of needles and syringes. We are vertically integrated with locations across the globe. Our innovative technology helps reduce unnecessary injuries, saves on medication and enhances both clinician and patient experience. Our international sales team is dedicated to delivering knowledge and outstanding customer service. Our goal is to partner with those in healthcare, focusing on a healthier tomorrow. Originally a leading producer of plastic moulds for the global medical industry - we were the first syringe mould producer in China and now supply over 60% of China’s syringe mould needs, as well exporting globally. This background sets the stage for our current focus in developing high quality and affordable safety medical devices that support best clinical practice – whilst also protecting healthcare workers (and their patients) from the risks associated with needlestick injury and accidental blood exposure. We currently manufacture a range of safety syringes, needles and blood collection devices under the Sol-Care and Sol-Guard brands. We also produce syringes and needles for the veterinary industry under the Sol-Vet line of products, as well as an extensive range of standard (non-safety) needles and syringes. We have a rich pipeline of new product innovation, and ambitious plans to grow our brands and our business. Close collaboration with frontline healthcare professionals is critical to the way we work – by sharing knowledge and ideas together we continuously improve our offer and work toward our goal of ‘Building a Heathier Tomorrow’.   Sol Millennium has global presence with sales and marketing offices in Brazil, Poland and USA and a European R&D Centre, based in Switzerland.
