HCM Medical was established in November 2014, marking the beginning of an innovative journey in the medical manufacturing industry. Founded by biochemists Henriette Valster and Christian van Munster, both of whom brought extensive experience from the Pharmaceutical, Medical Device, and Tissue Processing industries, HCM Medical was set up with a clear vision. As former colleagues in a Medical Device company, where they were responsible for Operational and Quality operations, they saw an opportunity to create a Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO) dedicated to the niche market of high-tech medical products. Their goal was to offer comprehensive development and manufacturing services for unique medical products, catering to international companies and various industry sectors.
By 2016, HCM Medical had achieved significant milestones. The company constructed state-of-the-art clean rooms, including an ISO class 5/6 clean room specifically designed for aseptic manufacturing. This development was a testament to the company’s commitment to meeting the highest standards of production quality and safety. Furthermore, acquiring a Medical Device manufacturing license marked a pivotal moment, enabling HCM Medical to expand its offerings and cement its position in the medical manufacturing industry.
Leveraging the founders’ deep knowledge and experience in manufacturing biological products, HCM Medical rapidly diversified its capabilities. The company’s expertise grew to encompass a wide range of products, from vaccines and tissue constructs to collagen and hydrogels. This expansion was driven by a strategic selection and installation of technologies, specifically tailored to meet the evolving needs of customers. HCM Medical’s focus on innovation and quality ensured that they remained at the forefront of developing and producing cutting-edge medical products.
Over the years, HCM Medical has continued to grow and evolve, constantly adapting to the dynamic needs of the medical manufacturing sector. The company’s dedication to innovation, quality, and customer service has earned it a reputation as a trusted partner in the industry. Today, HCM Medical stands as a beacon of excellence in medical manufacturing, continually pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the development and production of medical products.
As HCM Medical looks to the future, the company remains committed to its founding principles of innovation, quality, and excellence. With plans for further expansion and continual enhancement of its technological capabilities, HCM Medical is poised to lead the way in pioneering new solutions and advancements in the medical manufacturing field.
