Since its inception, Endovastec™ has seen rapid development through continuous innovation and become a leader in the field of aortic and peripheral vascular interventional medical devices in China. It was among the first companies listed on the STAR Market in 2019, and the fast growth since then has enabled us to speed up the implementation of our conglomerate-style development and global development strategies,” said President Zhu Qing, “Through this project, we will further optimize our product strategies, scale up industrialization, and strengthen our comprehensive competitiveness, thereby laying the foundation for the long-term high-quality growth of the company.”


As a leader in the field of aortic and peripheral vascular interventional medical devices in China, Endovastec™ currently has already launched 13 products, five of which have obtained CE marking.

Besides, Endovastec™ will develop in the form of a conglomerate to gradually improve the product line layout in the field of peripheral vascular intervention and tumor intervention, continuously optimize the product layout, enhance the competitiveness of the products in the market, and continue production capacity expansion, striving to create the next pole of growth. The company now has various peripheral vascular intervention and tumor intervention products under research and development, and it is expected that they will be rolled out and put into production in the near future to meet the growing market demand at home and abroad.
