Vernacare

Vernacare is due to open a new service centre in Bangalore, India, creating high quality engineering jobs to support installation, commissioning and servicing of its technology. It anticipates setting up service centres in every major Indian city.

Bolton-based medical products manufacturer Vernacare agreed a five-year, multi-million pound supply deal with Manipal, one of Asia's largest healthcare management groups, to provide its single-use infection prevention system. Vernacare expects sales in India to exceed £11 million over three years and is exploring creating an Indian manufacturing base.
