Commitment to quality blades

Every day, surgeons perform critical and delicate operations and so demand the highest quality, most reliable surgical blades available.

SWANN-MORTON, founded and based in Sheffield, says it is the world’s leading manufacturer and supplier of surgical blades, scalpels and handles to the health industry.

This reputation has been gained through its commitment to precision excellence and stringent quality control. Every blade undergoes meticulous laboratory and production checks before being inspected, manually, under controlled lighting conditions, by a member of Swann-Morton’s intensely trained and highly skilled inspection team.

This attention to detail allows surgeons GPs, nurses and paramedics to carry out their work, having total confidence in the blades they are working with.

A new scalpel – retractable, to improve handling safety, and disposable, to eliminate the chance of cross infection – has recently been launched, along with a blade remover tool and unit for the safer handling of blades.
