JULY 14, 2025

Getinge and Zimmer Biomet Holdings announced a strategic partnership where Zimmer Biomet will distribute Getinge’s operating room (OR) capital products to its ASC customers, according to a release. Customers will now be able to get Getinge’s infection control and surgical portfolio—surgical equipment, OR integration and lighting—with Zimmer Biomet’s joint replacement implants and surgical robotics technology from a single source.

“For us, this partnership represents a significant advancement in our efforts to innovate and expand the boundaries of healthcare," said Patricia Fitch, president of North America at Getinge, in the release. "We are thrilled to collaborate with Zimmer Biomet to deliver value to healthcare professionals and patients within the orthopedic ASC sector. This collaboration shows our commitment to making life-saving technology accessible to more people."

Said Jehanzeb Noor, senior vice president and chief strategy, innovation and business development officer of Zimmer Biomet, in the release, “Together with Getinge, we are expanding our ability to deliver a comprehensive, turnkey solution for our ASC customers—faster and more seamlessly—from a company they know and trust. As orthopedic surgeries increasingly migrate from traditional hospital settings to ASCs, the imperative to drive efficiency, enhance patient safety and improve clinical outcomes has never been greater. By aligning with Getinge, we are accelerating our ability to support surgeons in advancing these priorities, while shaping the future of orthopedic care.”

The partnership will be implemented in phases, starting in the US, with the ambition to eventually offer the combined portfolio of ASC solutions in additional regions around the world, according to the release.
