The Quality Edge

Swann-Morton and have a reputation for quality worldwide that is second-to-none.

That reputation has been built on exceptionally – and consistently – high standards of durability and sharpness. Swann-Morton is accredited to BS EN ISO 13485, enabling the company to CE mark its products under the Medical Device Directive (93/42/EEC). All standard fitting surgical blades and handles are produced in accordance with BS 2982, ISO 7740 / BS EN 27740. Every single batch of blades is subject to the strictest possible quality control procedures at every single stage of its manufacture, and the company also has a fully equipped microbiological laboratory.

Such attention to quality is, of course, vital for Swann-Morton. The company’s products play an important role in one of the most demanding environments in the world – the operating theatre.

For the same reason, Swann-Morton blades are subject to constant development and refinement. As surgical techniques become ever more highly refined, so must Swann-Morton develop blades that are equal to the challenge.

Surgeons in just about every country in the world trust other people’s lives to Swann-Morton blades. There can surely be no better evidence

of the importance the company places on quality.
