Production of high-quality medical devices in a country that has experienced a war and economic sanctions is like building pieces of life. Today, in the suburbs of Tehran there lies a medical devices factory called SUPA. Given the circumstances under which SUPA Medical Devices emerged and grew, we like to put it next to exceptional. What follows is a report on establishment and development of SUPA plus the statements of its president. As the saying goes, it is the story of blood, sweat and tears.

Giving Life at Home: The idea behind SUPA’s establishment was production of high-quality, low-cost medical devices at home. Inspired by such vision, a small group of professional surgeons founded SUPA in early 1990. While many industrial plants run with ambition of higher profitability, SUPA runs with the ambition of higher quality of life for all.

Passion for Excellence: Medical products can make the difference between life and death. Therefore, at SUPA Medical Devices, error detection has been replaced by error prevention. Quality goes above all in SUPA not only in pursuit of discipline, but also in pursuit of a passion for excellence. The result of this approach has been winning credit among internationally-reputable auditing bodies to receive certificates of Total Quality Management (TQM), ISO 9001 and CE Marking.
The most recent honor of SUPA – CE Marking – was awarded by the renowned British Standards Institution (BSI). To present the certificate and congratulate SUPA on this accomplishment, the then British Ambassador to Iran Nicholas W. Browne personally appeared in SUPA Factory.

SUPA is honored that its performance is supported by certificates of Total Quality Management (TQM), ISO 9001 and Conformity European (CE Marking).

Producing the Most Needed: Expanded over 50,000 square meters of production facilities and utilizing some of the most sophisticated methods and machinery, SUPA manufactures some of the most-wanted disposable medical devices in various sizes and types. Working with 1500 employees, SUPA is capable of manufacturing 2.5 billion units of medical components per year. The factory’s annual production capacity is 450 million units of finished goods.
Only some of these products can be listed as: Endotracheal Tube, Blood Exchange Set, Blood Transfusion Set, Micro Infusion Set, I.V. Infusion Set, Thalassu, I.V. Catheter, Syringes and Hypodermic Needles, C.V.P Manometer, Cuffed Pharyngeal Tube, Tracheostomy Tube, Bloodline Set for Haemodialysis, Foely’s Balloon Catheter, Urine Metering Device and Corrugated Drain.

Perfection on Agenda: All human resources at SUPA continue their endeavor to improve the existing potentials for production and quality. On the walls of SUPA Medical Devices, you can read the company’s living philosophy: We should all endeavor to possess Science, Competence and Intelligence.
