Welcome
For more than half a century, the name of Rudolf Storz has stood for highest precision, reliability and the proverbial Swabian inventiveness. This is the tradition of our company, which remains family-run to this day. As a forward-looking manufacturer, we have modernized the entire production in recent years and invested heavily in the automation of our machinery. In addition, we work in two to three-shift operation and were therefore able to significantly increase our output.
The broad range of products from Rudolf Storz GmbH in the area of surgical instruments extends from services such as electro-polishing, passivating and grinding and the development of customer-specific solutions all the way to assembly with a high level of vertical integration. Everything is “Made in Germany” at our location in Emmingen near Tuttlingen. For highest quality, speed and efficiency.
Tradition
When Rudolf Storz senior founded our company nearly 70 years ago, he started with a team of five men. Today, three generations later, Rudolf Storz GmbH is managed by owner Olaf Storz and employs 120 people in Emmingen-Liptingen on an area for production and administration of more than 4,000 square meters.
There are good reasons for this successful development: highest quality “Made in Germany”, absolute reliability in dealing with customers, partners and employees as well as comprehensive project services from design through production to sales and customer service.
Philosophy
We are your reliable partner for high-quality surgical instruments.
With our motivated and flexible team we have an open ear for your wishes and suggestions. The respectful treatment of our partners and employees is the key to our joint success.
Quality
All Rudolf Storz GmbH employees pursue one primary goal: supplying instruments in the best possible quality at a competitive price.
But today, this quality standard not only applies to the product itself, but rather extends over the entire process chain – from the design/drawing, examination of the technical feasibility and planning of the machine use all the way up to the offer preparation/order acceptance, production and control. That’s why we have our own tool manufacture and a high level of vertical integration.
We also take care of shipping and transporting your products, even optionally in the company’s own vehicles. Rudolf Storz thus offers you everything from a single source and thus a tried and tested as well as efficient complete service around your medical product.
