Global experts

Since 1993, GV Health has been a trusted partner and contract provider for organisations in Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, Africa and Asia. We are trusted to support their commitments in preventing disease and infection to create safer environments for people to live and work in.

With established expertise in research, development, manufacturing and distribution, GV Health leads the way in environmental hygiene, spill management, PPE, health worker and patient safety, and healthcare waste management solutions.

Protecting people

Every hospital within the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) uses our products as do leading healthcare providers around the world. We innovate for the widest variety of clinical settings across the world including veterinary practices and dental clinics, as well as commercial enterprises including hospitality and office spaces looking to protect customers and staff.

Protecting people extends to sustainability commitments. Advancements in manufacturing and regulation not only improve human health but help reduce the net impact on the wider environment.

Strong on innovation

Our commitment to transforming standards in healthcare and public health sees us combine research and development with our global manufacturing. Our deep understanding of the challenges, needs and goals of all end users ensures we innovate to drive the sector forward in terms of product design and education platforms, as well as minimising the environmental impact.

From products to our aftercare support and our digital systems; we bring together a uniquely integrated approach across broad disciplines and fields.

With this commitment, it’s unsurprising that GV Health is at the forefront of invention
