As the second most populous country in Africa, Ethiopia's healthcare system has long been constrained by outdated equipment and insufficient infrastructure, particularly in the operating room, severely impacting the quality and efficiency of medical services.

Aging operating tables fail to meet the growing surgical demand, while surgical lights are dim and their light sources unstable. There is a severe shortage of mobile examination equipment and nursing beds, limiting the surgical capabilities of primary hospitals and increasing patient safety risks.

An Urgent Mission Across Borders

Thousands of kilometers away in China, Saikang Medical received this heavy responsibility. Saikang was tasked with the urgent production and delivery of $4.35 million worth of 1,476 operating room devices within 60 days, helping Ethiopia to modernize its operating rooms and enhance primary healthcare capabilities.

This batch of equipment includes a full range of products, from high-end electric hydraulic operating tables and advanced surgical lights using high-brightness LED technology, to mobile examination lights, trolleys, and nursing beds suitable for primary healthcare facilities. The equipment meets the needs of various specialty areas and can be used in diverse scenarios across different levels of medical institutions in Ethiopia.

A Test of Manufacturing System Limits

Completing the production and delivery of so many operating room devices in just over 60 days is a tough challenge for any manufacturing company. Thanks to Saikang Medical's years of advanced manufacturing technology and rich experience in international projects, the company quickly activated its emergency production mechanism.

Upon receiving the order, Saikang immediately set up a dedicated project team, re-planning production processes to ensure the production line operated 24/7 without interruption.

Workers remained committed to their tasks, utilizing their professional skills and craftsmanship to meticulously produce each device. The quality control team strictly monitored every process to ensure each step was precise, eliminating any potential quality issues.

Saikang’s quality inspection team repeatedly tested the stability and reliability of the equipment, considering the complex local usage environment in Ethiopia, ensuring excellent performance in real-world conditions.

Meanwhile, the supply chain team coordinated the procurement and distribution of key components and raw materials in advance, ensuring a continuous supply of materials and safeguarding the production schedule.

Commitment and Responsibility of the Team

The final device was successfully packed, shipped, and left the factory, marking the successful completion of the entire project. This was not just a delivery milestone but the result of several days of intense, continuous work. Every meticulous process and each efficient coordination came together to make this moment possible.

Continuing to Deepen and Expand Global Partnerships

The success of this Ethiopia project has not only elevated the modernization of local operating rooms but has also greatly enhanced Saikang Medical’s influence in the African market.

Saikang has established long-term stable cooperation networks in East Africa, West Africa, and North Africa, while actively expanding its business in Asia, Europe, and the Americas. As collaborations deepen, Saikang will continue to adjust and optimize product designs and service models based on local medical needs, ensuring that equipment meets local demands and performs at its highest potential.

In the future, Saikang will continue to promote the wider distribution of advanced medical equipment and technology to remote and impoverished areas, enabling more patients to receive safe and efficient healthcare services.

The company also plans to participate in more international medical cooperation projects, spreading China’s medical manufacturing standards and service philosophy worldwide.

A Chinese Brand with Responsibility and Commitment

Looking ahead, Saikang will continue to provide practical, effective medical solutions based on the actual needs of different countries and regions, improving primary healthcare conditions and helping more people receive timely and safe treatment.

Through its actions, Saikang Medical embodies the quality, speed, and responsibility of Chinese manufacturing. For Saikang, delivering equipment is not just about the product itself, but about respecting life and committing to the global healthcare cause.

From Africa to Asia, from Europe and the Americas to broader international markets, Saikang's steps are firm and determined. One project after another is being implemented, hospitals are quietly improving, and lifelines are being reconnected. Healthcare improvement won’t happen overnight, but as long as we keep doing the right things and move forward steadily, change will ultimately come.
