Proving indispensable
to those who care
The Healthcare Profession, as caring for life, is arguably the most responsible and most respected professions known to man. To fall short when a life, (or lives), are at stake is unthinkable – on your part and ours.
Hallmark Surgical – the name stands for excellence – has deliberately set the bar high. The instruments and devices we provide are devoted to preserving that life.
But, more than that, Hallmark Surgical upholds the skill and experience of people by providing you with the trusted knowledge and support, at all levels of healthcare.
Because, like you, every day we both protect and serve.
Since our founding in 2001, Hallmark Surgical has strived to become an indispensable part of Healthcare in New Zealand. 20 years later, and now servicing every public hospital in New Zealand, and 95% of private hospitals along with many clinics, Hallmark Surgical continues to grow as a critical link in the healthcare delivery chain in New Zealand.
Hallmark Surgical focuses on providing best-in-class products in Gynaecology, Colorectal, Electrosurgical, Surgical Suction, Endoscopy and Instrumentation categories. Our recently constructed, purpose-built distribution centre in Ashburton, Mid Canterbury, enables us to offer these critical medical devices to customers throughout the country as needed. It is the hub of our excellence in the global supply chain.
