About us - Filax Medical AG

Working together to improve patient care

Our vision is a healthcare system where clinical teams are freed from repetitive manual tasks – so their time and attention can stay where it matters most: with patients.

Whether intraoperative irrigation, transurethral bladder irrigation or urine output: managing fluids is part of daily life in almost every hospital. Yet this work is still often done manually – measured, observed and documented by hand.

That costs valuable time, increases the risk of errors and makes consistent care harder to achieve. This is where we focus – on digital tools that make clinical workflows more efficient and noticeably ease the workload for nursing teams.

More efficient fluid management in hospitals

for urology, endoscopy and intensive care

We specialise in fluid management solutions for hospitals – from urology and endoscopy through to intensive care. Working closely with clinical teams, we develop systems that meet the complex requirements of different specialties.We combine digital innovation with real-world clinical insight and Swiss quality. These principles shape our work and make Filax Medical a trusted partner for hospitals worldwide.

Smart digitalisation

We automate manual steps where it makes sense – precisely, reliably and with clear clinical relevance.

Focused innovation

We add new functions where they genuinely support clinical teams and simplify processes.

Practice-oriented solutions

Developed in close collaboration with hospital teams – so they can be used straight away in daily practice.

Reliable quality

Our systems are robust, well thought through and built for continuous use in the hospital environment.

What guides us – as a team and in our work

We don’t chase every new technology trend. We focus on what genuinely helps. Four principles guide how we work:

Co-creation

We develop our solutions in partnership with the people who use them.

Commitment to relevance

We focus on changes that make a meaningful difference in clinical practice.

Close to clinical reality

Our products are developed where they are meant to be used: in the middle of everyday hospital life.

Hands-on. All-in. Every day.

Everyone gets involved – directly, pragmatically and on equal footing.

Our systems are created in close cooperation with hospital teams – from the first idea through to everyday use. We listen, test together and refine continuously. The benefit defines the functionality – not the other way round.
