"We are continuing to deepen our partnerships with hospitals and pharmaceutical companies around the world to combat COVID-19 and in the third quarter we delivered more advanced ICU ventilators than we normally do in a whole year", says Mattias Perjos, President & CEO Getinge.
The order intake for ventilators increased in the third quarter, but at a less spectacular level and the capacity will be adjusted accordingly. The strong sales of ECMO therapy products for hospitals and Sterile Transfer products for the pharmaceutical industry continued. All in all, Getinge's sales increased organically by 33.4% and the order intake fell by 5.3% in the quarter.
Parts of the business continues to be negatively affected by COVID-19. Getinge sees an upcoming need for managing the medical care that is being postponed in connection with COVID-19, even though it's hard to determine exactly when, and to what extent, this can take place. Surgical Workflows is the business area that was hardest hit in terms of orders and Getinge does not forsee a lasting turnaround until the second half of 2021, given the longer lead times in this business.
In the quarter, Getinge announced its objective to become CO₂ neutral by 2025, which will be achieved by a combination of activities, such as switching to renewable energy sources, new virtual ways of conducting meetings, smarter logistics and sustainable product development.
"I would again like to thank all hospital staff, our partners and my coworkers for your extraordinary efforts when they were needed the most", ends Mattias Perjos.
