The Netherlands, your gateway to Europe

Warehousing and distribution of medical devices to hospitals 
In Europe, it is estimated that over 140,000 heart valve operations are carried out every year, an average of more than 500 per day. It may look like a daily routine, however, replacing a heart valve is a complicated operation every single time. 

The hospitals form a medical team, arrange a proper operating area, and prepare the patient for the operation. Heart valve manufacturers produce and supply heart valves that function perfectly based on years of research and product development in combination with close contact with heart surgeons. 


Right heart valve at the right moment 
Rhenus Warehousing Solutions must ensure that the right heart valve is delivered at the right moment to the hospital where the operation will take place. We ensure that the valuable heart valves are in stock, register accurately the orders and the returns as well as being responsible for all the related financial arrangements. 


Our primary focus is on flexibility 
Whether it concerns heart valves or other medical devices, Rhenus Warehousing Solutions offers a range of services throughout the entire supply chain. Our primary focus is on flexibility, enabling us to effectively address the requirements of the medical device and life sciences manufacturers aiming to establish their presence in Europe. In collaboration with our customers, we create tailored solutions that emphasize optimal efficiency and cost-effectiveness. 

At Rhenus Warehousing Solutions, we prioritize quality, environmental considerations, continuity, and health. Our operations adhere to the standards of ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 14001, and ISO 28000, reflecting our commitment to excellence.
