The today's Lobeck Medical was founded 1979 under the premise, to qualify and develop productionlocations for high-quality textiles. The choice fell on Italy due to the then existing exzellent preconditions. From the beginning Lobeck was successful in the eastern countries, within four years Lobeck made a name for themself as a considerable supplier within this industry for high-quality textiles.
In the late eighties big customers from almost all European states were added to the customer portfolio. The changed structure of the map by the collaps of the former Soviet Union opened new markets, a clear expansion was essential.
With up to 350 coworkers annual turnovers of 50 millions CHF were generated. In 1995 Lobeck began the first production of textiles for the medical sector. The very first customer was found in the country of the manufacturing plants: An Italian wholesale distributor for medical textile products. After initial big success a genuine threat for the core business arose Lobeck from the competitive situation to Asiatic competitors.
Under this pressure the management decided, to diversify the business fields of Lobeck. Thus the business unit Medical developed in close co-operation with other Biotech companies diabetes and IVD-home test products. The 2003 formed and patented brandname "MediSmart of Switzerland®" meanwhile became an internationally recognized synonym for diabetes and IVD-home test products.
The management of Lobeck Medical Ltd carries all the experience of many years to lead the company to a successful future of coming generations.
