“With its unparalleled expertise in making some of the industry’s most challenging products, Tegra Medical is the core of SFS Division Medical,” said Jens Breu, SFS Group Chief Executive Officer. “It’s in our DNA to partner closely with customers. We’re excited to be expanding globally so we can extend our local presence and be closer to the customers we partner with in Europe and Asia.”

“We’re excited about furthering the recent growth of Tegra Medical,” said Walter Kobler. “Earlier in 2020 we purchased a 120,000 square foot building across the street from the Franklin, MA headquarters and began expansions in Hernando, MS to accommodate a new manufacturing cell and in Hallau, Switzerland to create additional capacity for injection molding and tooling. Expanding globally is our next step in bringing medical devices to life around the world.”
