Partnering for Better Health

The partnership between Sartorius and action medeor dates back to 2015. As a life science group, Sartorius contributes to the development of new and better therapies and affordable medicine. Through our donations, people in need can be provided with life-saving medicines, medical personnel can be trained, and access to drinking water can be improved. In this way, we directly support medical care for people in need.

Founded in 1964, the non-governmental organization  action medeor e.V. is providing medical aid for healthcare facilities worldwide. Furthermore, action medeor implements sustainable health projects, supports the training of health personnel and strengthens the quality control of drugs. The aid is supported by donors such as Sartorius.
