DZ BANK advises the owners in a competitive international bidding process


PHS Medical, founded in 1996 by Peter Hankel-Shepherd, specializes in the development and production of implantable vascular port catheter systems (including accessories). The medical technology company, based in Fuldabrück, Germany, focuses on highly regulated class III medical devices that are marketed through a global distribution network. The MDR-certified company is committed to improving the quality of life of patients. The products optimize patient safety due to the innovative port geometry, a simplified venting and flushing of the port catheter – which, for example, reduces the risk of port occlusion.

DELTA MED / NUMANTEC with its headquarters in Viadana, Italy, specializes in the development and production of intravenous catheters, vascular access systems and products for infusion therapies. The company offers procedure trays for hospitals and home care specialists, among others, and is considered a reliable partner providing innovative solutions.

The transaction will create specific synergy potential, enabling both companies to offer their customers an even broader range of products while maintaining the highest quality standards, and thus to further expand their already excellent market position.

Responsible on the side of DZ BANK were Dr. Georgi Bontschev, David Bechert and Sebastian Korz.

Headquarters in Fuldabrück, Germany
The image shows a series of medical devices known as implantable ports or vascular access devices. These are typically used in healthcare settings to facilitate the administration of medication, intravenous fluids, or for drawing blood in patients who require frequent or long-term intravenous therapy.

**Description of Features:**

1. **Shape and Design:**
   - The devices appear to be round or triangular shaped with a central circular area designed for needle access.
   - The ports are available in different colors, suggesting variations in the material or specific use cases.

2. **Material:**
   - They seem to be made from biocompatible silicone or metal to ensure durability and safe implantation under the skin.
   - Some may have metallic components used to anchor the device securely in place.

3. **Tubing:**
   - Each device features tubing for connecting to intravenous catheters or syringes.
   - The ends of the tubes are colored, possibly indicating different sizes or configurations.

These ports are critical for minimizing patient discomfort, reducing the risk of infection associated with repeated needle entries, and providing convenient and reliable access to veins for treatment. They can be used in various medical conditions requiring ongoing intravenous treatment, such as chemotherapy, dialysis, long-term antibiotics, or hydration treatments.
