Medtech Life was started on the basic principle of giving more consumers access to high quality medical devices that were made in India . The company started over 20 years ago , with their first product being an innovative single hole needle burner which completed both operations of disposing a needle in a single hole . The first product being a resounding success gave us the confidence to venture into more products . Over the years we have developed and introduced over 40 products in the market and have become one of the largest manufacturers of medical devices in India . We are proud to know that our products have given people better access to medical care than before .
