Die Positionierung der ETHICON GmbH und ihrer Business Units ist eindeutig: 

Die Besten sein und immer noch besser werden 

Die ETHICON GmbH 


Die vielfältigen Anstrengungen aller Unternehmungen 

unter dem Dach der ETHICON GmbH beschränken sich 

keineswegs allein auf die Vermarktung ihrer hochwertigen 

Produkte. Vielmehr verstehen sie sich als 

konstruktive und lösungsorientierte Partner auf allen 

Entwicklungsfeldern der operativen 

und konventionellen Medizin. 

Um neu entwickelte OP-Technologien einer kompetenten 

Anwenderschaft zugänglich zu machen, investiert die 

ETHICON GmbH gezielt in die Betreuung und 

Fortbildung ambitionierter Mediziner aus aller Welt. 

Nur so können Innovationen, die Leben retten, 

Krankheiten heilen und Lebensqualität steigern, 

nachhaltig zum Wohle der Patienten 

zur Anwendung gebracht werden. 

In einem Deutschland wirtschaftspolitischer Umbrüche 

und Verlagerungen von Produktions- und 

Entwicklungsstandorten in Länder mit vordergründig 

günstiger erscheinendem Fertigungsniveau setzt die 

ETHICON GmbH erfolgreich auf Kontinuität: 

Auf die Kraft neuer Ideen in der Entwicklung und 

Weiterentwicklung innovativer medizinischer Instrumente 

und Materialien, die zeitlose Gültigkeit 

von Qualität sowie die Kompetenz, Loyalität und die 

Flexibilität erfahrener Mitarbeiter. 

So konnte 2004 – entgegen branchenweiten 

Personalreduzierungen – die Mitarbeiterzahl der 

ETHICON GmbH auf über 2.300 erhöht werden, und 

auch das durchschnittliche Marktwachstum der 

Medizintechnologie konnte deutlich übertroffen werden. 

(To Be the Best and to Become Even Better) 

Ethicon GmbH 

Concentration Focus on Progress 

on Progress 

The companies operating under 

the umbrella of Ethicon GmbH 

are not restricted, in their many 

and varied efforts, to the 

marketing of Ethicon's high 

quality products. They prefer to 

see themselves as constructive, 

solution-oriented partners in all 

areas of development within the 

fields of surgery and conventional 

medicine. In order to make 

newly-developed surgical technologies 

accessible for a competent 

user group, Ethicon 

GmbH is investing in the career 

development and further training 

of ambitious practitioners 

from all over the world. This is 

the only way to ensure that 

innovations which save lives, 

heal diseases and improve quality 

of life are so implemented as 

to bring long-term benefit to 

patients. Economic uncertainty 

in Germany is leading many 

firms to transfer their production 

and development to countries 

which at first seem to offer 

lower production costs. Ethicon 

GmbH, however, is successfully 

following the path of continuity, 

drawing on the strength that 

comes from new ideas in the 

continuing development of 

innovative medical instruments 

and materials, from the enduring 

relevance of quality and 

from the competence, loyalty 

and flexibility provided by experienced 

employees. As a consequence, 

Ethicon GmbH increased 

the number of employees to 

over 2,300 in the course of 

2004 – in contrast to industrywide 

personnel reductions – 

and significantly exceeded the 

average market growth in the 

medical technology industry.

ETHICON GmbH, Norderstedt 

Regionale Größe für internationalen Erfolg 

Die ETHICON GmbH ist eines der größten Tochterunternehmen des Johnson&Johnson 

Konzerns und hat seine Niederlassung in Deutschland auf drei Unternehmensstandorte 

in Norderstedt bei Hamburg konzentriert. 

Im Jahre 2004 sind in der Summe aller Units und Bereiche deutlich 

über 2.300 Mitarbeiter bei der ETHICON GmbH beschäftigt. 

Die Gesamtfläche der drei Norderstedter Standorte beträgt in der Summe 65.500 m2 . 

Die Nadelfertigung, Flechterei, Fertigproduktion, Sterilisation, 

Forschung & Entwicklung sowie die Administration der ETHICON GmbH 

verteilen sich auf 35.200 m2 an der Robert-Koch-Straße. 

Direkt gegenüber ist das EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI) 

in einem Gebäudekomplex auf 12.000 m2 untergebracht. 

Auf weiteren 12.000 m2 an der Oststraße im Norden Norderstedts befinden sich 

die Büros einzelner Business Units sowie das Fertigwarenlager. 

Ein traditioneller Schwerpunkt am Standort Norderstedt ist der Bereich der 

Forschung & Entwicklung. Dieser nimmt in der Medizintechnik im Vergleich 

zu anderen Wirtschaftszweigen einen überproportional großen Investitionsumfang 

ein, sichert aber zugleich Wettbewerbsfähigkeit und Beschäftigung 

am eigenen Standort. In Verbindung mit hochqualifizierten Arbeitskräften, 

einem gut ausgebildeten Arbeitskräftepotenzial und hervorragenden 

infrastrukturellen Bedingungen gilt der Produktions- und Wissenschaftsstandort 

Norderstedt / Schleswig-Holstein als zukunftssicheres Innovationszentrum 

speziell für die Medizintechnologiebranche.

ETHICON GmbH, one of 

Johnson&Johnson’s largest subsidiaries, 

has concentrated its 

German operations in three 

locations in Norderstedt, near 

Hamburg. In 2004, over 2,300 

people were employed in the 

various business units and operating 

areas of ETHICON 

GmbH. The three Norderstedt 

locations have a total area of 

65,500 m 2 . Needle production, 

braiding, finished goods production, 

sterilization, Research 

& Development and ETHICON 

GmbH administration all take 

place in the 32,500m 2 Robert- 

Koch-Strasse premises. Across 

the road is the 12,000m 2 complex 

housing the EUROPEAN 

SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI). 

Individual business units, along 

with the finished goods warehouse, 

are located at a further 

12,000m 2 site on Oststrasse in 

the north of Norderstedt. 

Research & Development is a 

traditional focus in Norderstedt. 

In comparison with other industries, 

R&D in medical technology 

requires disproportionately 

high investment, but it ensures 

both competitiveness and continuing 

employment on-site. The 

combination of highly-qualified 

employees, a well-trained pool 

of potential workers and outstanding 

infrastructure make 

Norderstedt in Schleswig-Holstein 

a safe choice for the future 

as a centre of innovation for the 

medical technology industry.

Das J&J Umwelt-Logo spiegelt 

das Verständnis der kritischen 

wechselseitigen Abhängigkeit 

zwischen menschlicher Gesundheit 

und der Gesundheit unseres 

Planeten wider. 

Das Umweltverhalten der Ethicon GmbH: 

Natürliche Verantwortung 

Die im Johnson&Johnson Credo 

(Seite 054) und im Bewusstsein aller 

Mitarbeiter manifestierte Verantwortung 

des Unternehmens für einen 

sorgsamen und respektvollen Umgang 

mit unserer Umwelt und der weltweiten 

Erhaltung von natürlichen Ressourcen ist proportional 

zur Marktbedeutung des Unternehmens gewachsen. 

Die permanente Anwendung höchster Umweltmaßstäbe bei 

Produktion und Beschaffenheit aller Produkte, die von den Business 

Units der ETHICON GmbH angeboten werden, ist elementarer 

Bestandteil des unternehmerischen Selbstverständnisses. 

Der Environmental, Health and Safety Report zeigt eine Vielzahl 

von Maßnahmen, an denen Johnson&Johnson arbeitet, 

um die Umwelt für künftige Generationen zu erhalten. 

Im Umfeld der Produktion definiert sich Umweltschutz durch Einsparung 

von Energie und Rohstoffen genauso wie durch Reduzierung von 

Abfall, Abluft und Abwasser. Auf diesen Gebieten haben ETHICON 

Entwicklungen immer wieder Maßstäbe gesetzt und Normen neu 

definiert. Bereits 1986 wurde ETHICON der Umweltschutz-Preis des 

Landes Schleswig-Holstein verliehen. Dies unter anderem in Würdigung 

der ersten Installation einer Sterilgas-Rückgewinnungsanlage. 

Die drastische Reduzierung von Aluminiumfolie zur Versiegelung von 

resorbierbaren Materialien durch intelligente Formgebung, die standortweite 

Ächtung von Plastikbechern und anderen Einweg-Utensilien, das 

Verwenden von Recycling-Papieren für Geschäftspapiere, Werbe- und 

Verkaufsunterlagen sowie Verpackungsmaterialien, all dies sind 

tägliche Beiträge zur Reduzierung des Abfallaufkommens und des 

Verbrauchs von Rohstoffressourcen. 

Das ETHICON Umweltmanagement-System in Norderstedt ist nach 

ISO 14001 zertifiziert und unterliegt regelmäßigen 

Überprüfungen des Technischen Überwachungs-Vereins.

(A Major Regional Player: the Norderstedt Site) 

Environmental Awareness: 

Natural Responsibility 

The company’s responsibility for 

caring and responsible interaction 

with the environment and for the 

worldwide preservation of natural 

resources, as manifested in the J&J 

Credo (page 54) and in the consciousness 

of all employees, has 

grown in proportion with the 

company’s significance in the 

market. The most challenging 

environmental yardsticks are continually 

applied to the production 

of the entire range of ETHICON 

GmbH's products. This is a fundamental 

element of the company's 

self-image. The Environmental, 

Health and Safety Report shows a 

large number of measures being 

implemented by J&J to preserve 

the environment for future generations. 

Savings in terms of energy 

and raw materials, along with the 

reduction of waste, exhaust gases 

and waste water, are defining factors 

in environmental protection 

for the production departments. 

In these areas, ETHICON developments 

regularly set the standards 

and redefine the norms. As early 

as 1986, ETHICON was awarded 

the State of Schleswig-Holstein’s 

Environmental Protection Prize. 

This was in recognition of, 

amongst other things, the first 

installation of a sterile gas reclamation 

system. The drastic reduction 

in the usage of aluminium foil 

to seal absorbable materials by 

means of intelligent contouring, 

the site-wide ban on plastic cups 

and other disposable utensils, and 

the use of recycled paper for 

business correspondence, marketing 

and sales documents and 

packaging all contribute daily to 

the reduction of waste production 

and raw material consumption. 

ETHICON’s environmental management 

system in Norderstedt is 

certified to comply with ISO 14001.

ETHICON Ltd. 

EDINGBURGH / LIVINGSTON 

Im Jahr 1947 tritt der schottische 

Nahtmaterial-Hersteller 

George Merson der 

Johnson&Johnson Familie bei. 

ETHICON Ltd. ist geboren. 

1958 wird die Catgut-Fabrik eröffnet. 

In den 50er und 60er Jahren werden 

neue Produkte sowie Prozesse zur 

Herstellung von Nahtmaterial entwickelt, 

1963 der erste kommerziell 

genutzte Strahlensterilisator. 

1975 wird die Fadenflechterei feierlich 

eingeweiht, 1981 beginnt die 

Markteinführung von Vicryl in UK. 

Die Entwicklung und Einführung 

einer FCKW-freien Sterilisationsanlage 

erfolgt in Livingston. 

Heute sind auf 40.800 m2 die Nadelfertigung, 

Endfertigung, Sterilisation, 

Verpackung, Vertrieb und Versand 

vereinigt. Jährlich werden in 

Schottland 54,7 Mio. Verpackungseinheiten 

Nahtmaterial (mehr als 

3.500 verschiedene Codes) und 

62,5 Mio. Nadeln (900 verschiedene 

Codes) für den britischen Markt, 

aber auch für Frankreich, 

Deutschland, Südafrika, Indien, 

Pakistan und China hergestellt. 

In 1947, the Scottish suture 

material manufacture George 

Merson joined the J&J family. 

ETHICON Ltd. was born. The 

catgut factory was opened in 

1958. In the '50s and '60s new 

products along with new processes 

for the manufacture of 

suture material were developed, 

and in the 1963 the first commercial 

radiation sterilizer was 

installed. The ceremonial opening 

of the suture braiding shop 

took place in 1975, and in 1981 

the introduction of Vicryl ® into 

the British market began. A 

CFC-free sterilization plant was 

developed and introduced in 

Livingston. Today, needle production, 

finished goods production, 

sterilization, packaging, 

sales and distribution all take 

place at the 40,800 m 2 site. 

54.7 million units of suture

ASP is a highly specialized provider of innovative problem solutions in the 

field of sterilization and disinfection. In developing the Sterrad ® technology 

for non-damaging sterilization procedures which do not adversely 

affect materials, ASP has defined the standard in this field. The Sterrad ® 

process is based on the revolutionary hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilization 

technology, a dry process requiring temperatures no higher than 45° C 

which does not leave behind toxic residues. The special sterilization conditions 

in Sterrad ® Sterilization Systems enable non-damaging reprocessing 

even of sophisticated moisture and heat sensitive instruments and devices. 

Sterrad ® plasma sterilization systems from ASP are an investment 

which reduces costs and offers safety in the operating theatre. The 

AdaptaScope ® reprocessing system for flexible endoscopes is the epitome 

of the latest innovations in automatic endoscope reprocessing systems. 

Since flexible, thermolabile endoscopes with one or more internal channels 

frequently pick up large amounts of material and become contaminated 

with infectious substances during operations, safe, dependable preparation 

is technically highly demanding. ASP offers the AdaptaScope ® RDG, 

a unique design with independently monitored channels, for endoscope 

preparation. One of the clinically tested Cidex ® products is Cidex ® OPA C, 

a highly effective disinfectant solution in concentrated form developed in 

combination with the detergent solution Cidezyme ® especially for use in 

endoscope reprocessing systems. Both of these products yet exceed 

future standards for the safe, hygienic preparation of flexible endoscopes 

from all manufacturers.

ADVANCED STERILIZATION PRODUCTS (ASP) 

Sterilisation und Desinfektion | ASP ist der hochspezialisierte Anbieter von innovativen Problemlösungen im 

Bereich Sterilisation und Desinfektion. Mit der Entwicklung der STERRAD ® Technologie für unschädliche und materialschonende 

Sterilisationen definiert ASP den Standard auf diesem Gebiet. Das STERRAD ® Verfahren basiert auf der revolutionären 

Wasserstoffperoxid-Plasmasterilisationstechnologie, die trocken und bei einer Temperatur von nur 45°C und 

ohne toxische Rückstände arbeitet. Diese besonderen Sterilisationsbedingungen in STERRAD ® Geräten ermöglichen die

BREAST CARE »Recognizing and treating breast cancer early so that 

more women's lives can be saved« – that is the credo of Breast Care, 

clearly stating the aims of this business unit at ETHICON GmbH: innovative 

procedures and products which serve as their first priority the 

well-being and quality of life of women as patients. Breast Care has 

developed a breast biopsy system, the Mammotome Vacuum Biopsy ® , 

which can relieve women's fears of tissue removal from the breast 

because it is a minimally invasive operation. Radiologists and gynaecologists 

can use any imaging procedures in combination with the 

Mammotome Vacuum Biopsy ® to gently remove tissue from the 

breast and ensure the correct diagnosis. The procedure renders unnecessary 

an open surgical biopsy, for which the patient may, under 

certain circumstances, have to remain in hospital for several days 

and which often results in a disfiguring scar on the breast. The 

Mammotome Vacuum Biopsy ® does not leave behind any scars and 

can be performed under local anaesthetic as 

an out-patient procedure. Yet this procedure 

provides just as reliable a diagnosis as a 

surgical biopsy since it obtains an adequate 

quantity of tissue, despite the gentleness of 

the operation.


Brustkrebsdiagnose | »Brustkrebs frühzeitig erkennen und behandeln, um mehr Frauenleben zu 

retten«, lautet das Credo von BREAST CARE und verdeutlicht die Ausrichtung dieser Business Unit 

der ETHICON GmbH: Innovative Verfahren und Produkte, bei denen das Wohl und die Lebensqualität 

der Frau als Patientin im Vordergrund stehen. Mit der MAMMOTOME-VAKUUMBIOPSIE ® 

hat BREAST CARE ein Brustbiopsie-System entwickelt, das Frauen die Angst vor einer Gewebeentnahme 

aus der Brust nehmen kann, da es sich um einen minimal-invasiven Eingriff handelt. 

Mit der MAMMOTOME-VAKUUMBIOPSIE ® können Radiologen und Gynäkologen unter Einsatz 

aller bildgebenden Verfahren schonend Gewebe aus der Brust entnehmen und eine sichere 

Diagnose stellen. Dadurch wird eine offene chirurgische Biopsie, bei der die betroffene Frau unter 

Umständen einige Tage im Krankenhaus bleiben muss und oft eine störende Narbe auf der Brust 

zurückbehält, überflüssig. Die MAMMOTOME-VAKUUMBIOPSIE ® hinterlässt keine Narbe und kann 

ambulant unter lokaler Betäubung durchgeführt werden. Gleichzeitig ermöglicht dieses Verfahren 

eine ebenso verlässliche Diagnose wie eine chirurgische Biopsie, da trotz des schonenden 

Eingriffs genügend Gewebe gewonnen wird.

CODMAN, founded in Boston in 1838, is presumably the 

oldest manufacturer of medical devices in the world. One of 

the first milestones was the invention of the ether mask in 

1842, which made possible the first operation under a 

general anaesthetic, as well as a set of surgical and amputation 

instruments which was a standard part of every doctor's 

equipment in the Wild West. In the second half of the 20th 

century, the focus of developments shifted to neurosurgery. 

Codman has belonged to the Johnson&Johnson Group 

since 1964 and, as a part of ETHICON GmbH, is responsible 

for surgery on the central nervous system (CNS) and 

implants for neuromodulation. The history of neurosurgery, 

young as it is, has been marked by rapid development and 

high demands for technical realizations. Codman strives to 

meet these demands by making extraordinarily high investments 

in research and development, investments which 

have already paid off in the generation and establishment in 

surgical practice of a number of groundbreaking innovations. 

The first non-invasive, adjustable shunt system, the 

Codman Hakim ® Hydrocephalus Valves, is the standard 

treatment for hydrocephalus ("water on the brain") and has 

made it possible for many patients to lead a perfectly normal 

life. Codman has developed an antibiotic impregnation, 

Bactiseal ® , for silicon catheters as a reliable means of preventing 

infections frequently occurring during this therapy. 

ICP ® Express is a system for measuring brain pressure. 

Intensive care stations are unthinkable today without this 

Codman technology. It can contribute to improvement of 

the outcome for patients with brain injuries, increasing their 

survival rate. Archimedes ® is the name of a method of invasive 

neuromodulation with the help of fully implantable 

medication pumps. These maintenance-free titanium pumps 

administer morphine or baclofen directly into the spinal 

canal over a period of many years. As a consequence, the 

dosages of the required medications can be reduced by as 

much as 98% (!) in comparison with systemic administration, 

drastically reducing the threat of side effects. Instruments 

such as high-speed drilling systems for opening the 

skull, plate systems for closing the skull and the high-frequency 

coagulation apparatus CMC ® III, optimized for neurosurgical 

operations, with self-cooling bi-polar Isocool ® 

forceps round out Codman's neurosurgical product line, 

which comprises well over 4,000 items. The close proximity 

to the European Surgical Institute (ESI) allows us to conduct 

implantation courses under highly realistic conditions – 

a key element in the multifaceted Codman continuing education 

programme for neurosurgeons, which also offers 

training in clinics and continuing education for physicians in 

private practice. Since 2002, Codman has been giving special 

attention to the recognition and treatment of a special 

form of dementia (NPH, normal pressure hydrocephalus), 

with the objective of significantly increasing independence 

and quality of life for sufferers.


CODMAN 

Produkte für die Neurochirurgie | 1838 in Boston gegründet, ist CODMAN der wohl älteste Medizinproduktehersteller der Welt. Erste 

Meilensteine waren 1842 die Äthermaske, die die erste Operation unter Vollnarkose möglich machte, sowie ein chirurgisches 

Instrumenten- und Amputationsbesteck, das zum festen Bestandteil jeder Arztausrüstung im Wilden Westen gehörte. In der zweiten 

Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts verlagerte sich der Entwicklungsschwerpunkt zur Neurochirurgie. Seit 1964 gehört CODMAN zum 

Johnson&Johnson Konzern und ist unter dem Dach der ETHICON GmbH zuständig für die Chirurgie am zentralen Nervensystem 

(CNS) und für Implantate zur Neuromodulation. Die noch junge Geschichte der Neurochirurgie ist geprägt von einer rasanten 

Entwicklung und einem hohen Bedarf an technischen Realisierungen. Diesem Anspruch trägt CODMAN mit außerordentlich hohen 

Investitionen in Forschung und Entwicklung Rechnung, wodurch bereits eine Reihe bahnbrechender Innovationen generiert und 

chirurgisch etabliert werden konnten. Die ersten nicht-invasiv verstellbaren Ableitungssysteme, die CODMAN HAKIM ® Hydrocephalus- 

Ventile, stellen den Standard der Hydrocephalus-Therapie (Wasserkopf) dar und ermöglichen vielen betroffenen Patienten ein völlig 

normales Leben. Zur zuverlässigen Prävention von Infektionen, die häufig mit dieser Therapie verbunden sind, hat CODMAN eine 

Antibiotika-Imprägnierung BACTISEAL ® für Silikonkatheter entwickelt. ICP ® EXPRESS ist ein System zur Hirndruckmessung. Diese 

CODMAN Technologie ist aus heutigen Intensivstationen nicht mehr wegzudenken. Sie kann dazu beitragen, das Outcome hirnverletzter 

Patienten zu verbessern und die Überlebensrate zu steigern. ARCHIMEDES ® heißt die Methode einer invasiven Neuromodulation 

mit Hilfe voll implantierbarer Medikamentenpumpen. Diese wartungsfreien Titanpumpen fördern über viele Jahre hinweg 

Morphin oder Baclofen direkt in den Spinalkanal. Dadurch können die Medikamente gegenüber der systemischen Verabreichung 

um bis zu 98 % (!) geringer dosiert werden, was mögliche Nebenwirkungen drastisch verringert. Instrumente wie Hochgeschwindigkeitsbohrsysteme 

für den Schädelzugang, Plattensysteme für den Schädelverschluss und das für 

neurochirurgische Eingriffe optimierte Hochfrequenz-Koagulationsgerät CMC ® III mit selbstkühlenden 

bipolaren ISOCOOL ® Pinzetten komplettieren CODMANs neurochirurgisches Produktspektrum, das weit 


CMC 

über 4.000 Artikel umfasst. Die Nähe zum EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI) ermöglicht Implantationskurse 

unter sehr realistischen Bedingungen – ein zentraler Bestandteil des vielseitigen CODMAN 

Fortbildungsprogramms für Neurochirurgen, in dem auch Ausbildungsangebote in Kliniken sowie 

Fortbildungen für niedergelassene Ärzte für einen verbesserten Wissenstransfer sorgen. Seit 2002 

engagiert sich CODMAN verstärkt für die Erkennung und Behandlung einer speziellen Demenzform 

(NPH oder Altershirndruck) mit dem Ziel einer deutlichen Erhöhung von Selbstständigkeit und Lebensqualität 

bei den betroffenen Patienten.

THERAKOS is the global market leader in the field of extracorporeal photochemotherapy 

(photopheresis). Photopheresis using the Uvar ® XTS TM photopheresis 

apparatus was approved by the FDA for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell 

lymphoma, a malignant mutation of lymphocytoid cells manifesting itself primarily 

on the skin, in 1988 and is used today in Europe as well as a CE-certified medical 

device. During photopheresis therapy, blood is first removed from the patient 

via a peripheral or central venous access catheter. The white blood corpuscles 

(leukocytes) are then separated in the Therakos Uvar ® XTS TM system. The Uvadex ® 

photosensibilisator (8-methoxypsoralen) is added to the leukocytes in the system 

and they are briefly radiated with ultraviolet light (1.5j/cm 2 ). Following the radiation, 

the treated leukocytes are returned to the patient's system. As a consequence 

of this procedure, the activated 8-methoxypsoralen bonds between the DNA 

strands of a cell and over the course of several hours leads to a controlled death 

of the cell (apoptosis). The apoptotic cells are recognized and assumed by specific 

cells (antigen presenting cells, APC) in the body. Owing to the change in the 

cytokine milieu in the blood, regulatory T-cells are formed; they restabilize the 

immune system which has been disrupted in its balance by the illness. The low 

level of side effects and the specific application of the therapy have led to a series 

of clinical studies now in progress to demonstrate the effectiveness of photopheresis 

for other illnesses. Therakos is the only provider in the world in the field 

of extracorporeal photopheresis to have an approved medication (Uvadex ® ) for 

photoactivation as well as a closed separation/radiation unit (Uvar ® XTS TM system). 

As of 2004, some 400,000 treatments using the Uvar ® system had been conducted. 

As the extracorporeal photopheresis therapy continues to be developed, the latest 

findings and suggestions from users regarding its effectiveness and handling are 

constantly taken into account. A new, continuous photopheresis system is already 

being planned for the near future.


THERAKOS 

Photopherese |THERAKOS ist weltweit Marktführer im Bereich der extrakorporalen Photochemotherapie (Photopherese). Die 

Photopherese mit dem UVAR ® XTSTM Photopheresegerät wurde 1988 von der FDA für die Behandlung des kutanen T-Zell-Lymphoms, 

einer malignen Veränderung von lymphozytoiden Zellen, die sich primär an der Haut manifestieren, zugelassen und ist heute auch 

in Europa als CE-zertifiziertes Medizinprodukt im Einsatz. Bei der Photopherese-Therapie wird dem Patienten zunächst über einen 

peripheren oder zentralvenösen Zugang Blut entnommen. Daraufhin werden im THERAKOS UVAR ® XTSTM System die weißen Blutkörperchen 

(Leukozyten) separiert. Anschließend werden die Leukozyten im System mit dem UVADEX ® Photosensibilisator (8-Methoxypsoralen) 

angereichert und kurzzeitig mit UVA-Licht (1,5 J/cm2 ) bestrahlt. Nach der Bestrahlung werden dem Patienten die behandelten 

Leukozyten wieder zugeführt. Bei diesem Vorgang bindet sich zwischen den DNA-Strängen einer Zelle das aktivierte 

8-Methoxypsoralen und führt über mehrere Stunden zu einem kontrollierten Zelltod (Apoptose). Die apoptotischen Zellen werden 

von spezifischen Zellen (antigen presenting cells, APC) im Körper erkannt und aufgenommen. Durch die Veränderung des Cytokin- 

Milieus im Blut werden regulatorische T-Zellen gebildet, die das im Zuge der Erkrankung aus dem Gleichgewicht geratene 

Immunsystem wieder stabilisieren. Auf Grund der geringen Nebenwirkungen und der spezifischen Anwendung der Therapie laufen 

zur Zeit eine Reihe von klinischen Studien, um die Wirksamkeit der Photopherese auch bei weiteren Indikationen nachzuweisen. 

THERAKOS ist der weltweit einzige Anbieter im Bereich der extrakorporalen Photopherese, der neben einer geschlossenen 

Separations-/ Bestrahlungseinheit (UVAR ® XTSTM System) auch über ein zugelassenes Arzneimittel (UVADEX ® ) für die Photoaktivierung 

verfügt. Bis 2004 wurden weltweit etwa 400.000 Behandlungen mit dem UVAR ® System durchgeführt. Bei der Weiterentwicklung 

der extrakorporalen Photopherese-Therapie fließen ständig neueste Erkenntnisse und Anregungen der Anwender bezüglich der 

Wirkungsweise und der Handhabung ein. Für die nahe Zukunft ist bereits ein neues kontinuierliches Photopherese-System in Planung.

Johnson & Johnson Vision Care is the world's leading manufacturer of contact 

lenses and operates production facilities in Limerick, Ireland, and Jacksonville, Florida. 

The company today employs more than 3,500 worldwide and sells its products in 

more than 70 countries. Back in 1988, Johnson&JohnsonVision Care revolutionized 

the industry for optical eyewear by introducing Acuvue ® , the first disposable contact 

lens. Today, the large majority of contact lens wearers decide to enjoy the many benefits 

of disposable contact lenses. The logical continuation of Acuvue ® was the successful 

introduction of 1-Day Acuvue ® , the first one-day contact lens in the world, in 1995. 

One-day lenses, the most comfortable and healthiest way to wear contacts, were first 

made possible by groundbreaking innovations in manufacturing technology. During 

the SSM procedure, for which the company holds a number of patents, the lenses are 

formed while constantly in a soft, wet condition, enabling the manufacture of all 

Acuvue ® contact lenses in large numbers while maintaining the highest standards of 

quality. In the last few years, the product line has been expanded by the addition of 

numerous innovative products so that now virtually any visual problem can be 

corrected by wearing Acuvue ® contact lenses. Today, products from the Acuvue ® family 

are worn more than any other contact lens in the world. All of the Vision Care products 

are characterized by outstanding oxygen permeability, greatest wearing comfort, 

excellent modelling quality and a highly effective UV filter for the protection 

of the cornea and the interior of the eye. The products are sold exclusively in cooperation 

with opticians and ophthalmologists to ensure the expert consultation and 

follow-up care required for the long-term satisfaction of contact lens wearers.

Nahtmaterial und Implantate | ETHICON PRODUCTS ist die Business Unit der ersten Stunde, denn mit Nahtmaterial begann hier 

1956 auch die Erfolgsstory der heutigen ETHICON GmbH. Das Kerngeschäft von ETHICON PRODUCTS sind heute synthetische, resorbierbare 

und nicht-resorbierbare chirurgische Nahtmaterialien, mit denen das Unternehmen seit Jahrzehnten die nationale und 

internationale Marktführerschaft hält. Das hohe Innovationspotenzial fließt kontinuierlich in die Entwicklung neuer und Weiterentwicklung 

bewährter Produkte wie VICRYL ® plus und PROCEED ® . In der Nadelfertigung führen Kundenwünsche nicht selten zur 

Serienproduktion, so dass die Vielfalt des angebotenen Nahtmaterials die individuellen Ansprüche von Chirurgen für nahezu jede 

operative Herausforderung in sämtlichen chirurgischen Disziplinen abdeckt. Aber auch im angrenzenden Marktsegment fadenloser 

Wundverschlüsse ist ETHICON PRODUCTS führend: Der erfolgreiche DERMABOND ® Hautkleber und seine Weiterentwicklung, die 

DERMABOND ® family. Zum erweiterten Produktportfolio zählen vor allem Netzimplantate für die offene und laparoskopische 

Hernienversorgung wie das mehrlagige, gewebeseparierende PROCEED ® . Die Produktpalette für die vielfältigen Ausprägungen 

dieser Versorgungstechniken reicht von synthetischen, nicht-resorbierbaren sog. Plugs über die teil-resorbierbaren Netzimplantate 

VYPRO ® , VYPRO ® II, ULTRAPRO ® und PROCEED ® bis hin zu komplett resorbierbaren VICRYL ® Netzen, die zur temporären Gewebeunterstützung 

eingesetzt werden. Die herausragenden Entwicklungserfolge auf dem Gebiet der Hernienversorgung 

entstehen in enger Zusammenarbeit mit ausgewiesenen Spezialisten dieser chirurgischen Disziplin. 

ETHICON PRODUCTS is the germinal business unit of the company, because the 

success story of today's ETHICON GmbH began here in 1956 with suture materials. 

The core business of Ethicon Products today is found in synthetic, absorbable and 

non-absorbable surgical suture material; the company has been the national and international 

market leader in this field for decades. The high innovation potential flows 

continuously into the development of new products and the further development of 

proven products such as Vicryl ® plus and Proceed ® . Individual customer requests 

in needle production frequently lead to mass production so that the diversity of the 

suture material offered covers the individual requirements of surgeons for 

virtually any operative challenge in all areas of surgery. 

But Ethicon Products is also the leader in the related market segment of sutureless 

wound closures: the successful Dermabond ® skin adhesive and its further development, 

the Dermabond ® family. The extended product portfolio features surgical 

meshes for open and laparoscopic hernia repair such as the first multi-layer, 

tissue-separating Proceed ® . The product line for the various forms of these 

repair techniques ranges from synthetic, non-absorbable plugs to the 

partially absorbable surgical meshes Vypro ® , Vypro ® II, Ultrapro ® and Proceed ® 

and the completely absorbable Vicryl ® surgical meshes used for temporary 

tissue support. Major successes in the area of hernia repair are developed in close 

collaboration with recognized specialists in this surgical area.

Connected to customers – inspired to innovate | Der fortwährende Dialog zwischen ETHICON PRODUCTS und seinen 

Kunden ist die traditionelle Grundlage dieser Servicephilosophie. Medizinisch geschulte Produktspezialisten helfen Chirurgen, mit 

neuen Produkten neue OP-Techniken zu praktizieren. Krankenhäuser werden durch die kostenreduzierende Einrichtung von 

Konsignationslagern und kundenindividuellen E-PACKS* unterstützt. E-Learning-Gutscheine, Lehrliteratur, Fortbildungsveranstaltungen 

im EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI) und Hospitationsveranstaltungen in ausgesuchten Kliniken umreißen nur grob 

das umfangreiche Serviceangebot für den chirurgischen Nachwuchs. Die freie Nutzung der eigenen wissenschaftlichen Bibliothek 

sowie die Unterstützung und Durchführung von Forschungsreihen und Studien mit führenden Chirurgen sind seit Jahren unbürokratisch 

abrufbare Dienstleistungen im Sinne des gemeinsamen wissenschaftlichen Fortschritts. Projekt Zukunft | Die qualifizierten 

Beratungsleistungen von ETHICON PRODUCTS finden auch jenseits rein medizinischer Belange eine professionelle Fortsetzung. 

Ein beispielhafter Mehrwert, der nicht ausschließlich chirurgischen Anwendern von ETHICON Produkten zugänglich gemacht wird, 

sind regelmäßige Seminare für kaufmännische Belange von Kliniken, die sich mit Trends im Beschaffungsmanagement und der 

Zukunftsgestaltung von Krankenhäusern beschäftigen. Elementarer Bestandteil der ETHICON PRODUCTS Mission ist die Vereinigung 

von Sicherheit und Kosteneffizienz für alle Kundengruppen. Das gilt insbesondere für effiziente Sortimentsstrukturen, Produkt- und 

Verpackungsergonomie, vereinfachte OP-Vorbereitung, optimiertes Bestellwesen und rationelles Lagerbestandsmanagement. 

»Connected to customers – inspired to innovate« The ongoing dialogue between 

Ethicon Products and its customers is the traditional fundament of this service philosophy. 

Medically trained product specialists aid surgeons in the practice of new operating 

procedures using new products. Hospitals are supported by setting up consignment 

stocks, which reduce expenses, and offering customized E-Packs. E-Learning vouchers, 

teaching literature, continuing education programmes at the European Surgical Institute 

(ESI) and visiting physician programmes in selected clinics are only a small part 

of the comprehensive services offered to young surgeons. Free use of our own science 

library as well as the support and conduct of research series and studies with leading 

surgeons are services we have been making available without red tape for years as 

part of our commitment to collaborative progress. 

Project Future. The qualified services of Ethicon Products have a professional extension 

as a supplement to purely medical questions. One example of added value available 

to non-surgical users of ETHICON products as well is the programme of regular 

seminars for commercial problems facing clinics, in which trends in procurement 

management and the future design of hospitals are discussed. 

A fundamental component of the ETHICON PRODUCTS mission is the merging of safety 

and cost efficiency for all customer groups. Particular emphasis is given to efficient 

product line structures, product and packaging ergonomics, simplified operating theatre 

preparation, optimized ordering procedures and streamlined management of stocks. 

* E-Packs enthalten eine vom Kunden individuell zusammengestellte Auswahl 

von Nahtmaterial und Implantaten – jeweils für eine spezielle OP.

SURGERY als eigenständige Business Unit der Johnson&Johnson Gruppe gegründet. 

ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY entwickelt und vertreibt chirurgische Instrumente und 

medizinische Produkte sowohl für die minimal-invasive als auch für die offene 

Chirurgie. Die Entwicklung und Weiterentwicklung von innovativen Produkten und

Kooperation mit Chirurgen, Ingenieuren und Universitäten weltweit. Kompromisslose 

Sicherheit und Zuverlässigkeit sowie optimale Benutzerfreundlichkeit haben 

ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY zum führenden Hersteller in diesem Marktsegment 

gemacht. »Transforming Patient Care through Innovation« steht als originäre Vision 

über der medizinischen Revolution und dem globalen Siegeszug der minimalinvasiven 

Chirurgie (MIC). Seit der ersten laparoskopischen Cholezystektomie 

(Entfernung der Gallenblase) am 22. Juni 1988 haben die Vorteile dieser besonders 

schonenden Chirurgie den zeitlichen Verlauf, die prä- und postoperativen Umstände 

und die medizinische Erfolgsquote von chirurgischen 

Eingriffen erheblich verändert. Dank 

innovativer chirurgischer Produkte und der ausgereiften 

Technologie medizinischer Instrumente 

– nicht zuletzt durch die Leistungen von 

ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY – wird heute die 

minimal-invasive Chirurgie von Patienten in aller 

Welt präferiert. Das Produktsortiment umfasst 

Instrumente für die minimal-invasive Chirurgie 

Ligaturclips. HARMONIC

have made Ethicon Endo-Surgery into the

»Transforming Patient Care Through Innovation« 

stands as the original vision of the medical 

revolution and the global triumph of minimally 

invasive surgery. Since the first laparoscopic 

cholecystectomy (removal of the gall bladder) 

on 22 June 1988, the advantages from this 

especially gentle form of surgery have significantly 

changed the temporal course, preoperative 

and post-operative circumstances and 

the medical success rate of 

surgical procedures. Thanks to 

innovative surgical products 

and mature technology of 

medical instruments – in no 

small part owing to the work 

of Ethicon Endo-Surgery – 

minimally invasive surgery is 

today the preferred choice of 

patients around the world. 

The line of products includes 

instruments for minimally 

invasive surgery (e.g., trocars),

as well as ligating clips.

EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE The European 

Surgical Institute (ESI) in Norderstedt near Hamburg/ 

Germany is one of the most modern and innovative 

training centres for continuing medical education in 

Europe. ESI was established in 1991 and since that time 

has provided continuing and further training to more 

than 100.000 health care professionals, above all from 

Europe, Japan, Middle East, South Africa and USA. ESI 

became the first private institute in continuing medical 

education to receive EACCME (European Accreditation 

Council for Continuing Medical Education) with the 

highest possible award of training credits to courses 

and symposia, via the UEMS, the European Union of 

Medical Specialists. This achievement guarantees 

medical specialists from EU countries and the USA a 

high standard of qualification in training and professional 

development that will receive full credit in their 

home countries. The multifaceted course programme 

with its focus on minimally invasive surgery covers 

nearly every surgical discipline. Learning and training 

conditions at ESI are exemplary. In addition to the 

Joseph Lister Auditorium, numerous conference rooms, 

laboratories and workstations with virtual reality 

systems for an intensive surgical training are available. 

The state-of-the-art communications technology enables 

live broadcasts from operating theatres around 

the world and ideally supports the training sessions. ESI 

offers an ideal forum for the exchange of academic and 

practice–related medical information and innovations 

within the scope of large international symposia. But 

physicians are not alone; politicians, health care economists, 

legal experts and representatives from health 

insurance companies take advantage of the ESI events 

as a form of joint orientation on the constantly changing 

health care market. With the monthly event series 

Health Forum ESI offers the general public the opportunity 

to discuss current questions in medicine with 

experts. The excellent mediation of knowledge and 

skills as practiced at ESI is the right way to offer 

patients interdisciplinary medical care at the highest 

level in conformity with the Ethicon Endo-Surgery 

motto »Transforming Patient Care through Innovation«. 

But what would medicine be without art, music and 

other cultural events? The traditional Schleswig- 

Holstein Music Festival is an annual guest at ESI. The 

pianist Leon Fleischer (Baltimore/USA) gave samples of 

his virtuosity. Ida Bieler, accomplished violinist, presented 

her master class, and the Gorky Symphony 

Orchestra enchanted audiences with an acclaimed 

Beethoven concert. In the series Text and Music, 

Christian Quadflieg, a German actor, and the Ensemble 

Resonanz complemented each other in the 

Kreutzersonate, a story by Tolstoy and music by 

Beethoven and Janácek. Art exhibitions with photos, 

sculptures, paintings and objects in the open courtyard 

are also a tradition at ESI.


EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI) 

(eine Division von ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY) 

Excellence in education | Unter dem Dach der ETHICON GmbH ist das EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI) dem 

Geschäftsbereich ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY angeschlossen. Das Schulungszentrum wurde 1991 gegründet und hat seitdem rund 

100.000 im Gesundheitswesen Beschäftigte – vor allem aus Europa, Japan und den USA – weiter- und fortgebildet. Das ESI zählt damit 

zu einer der größten und renommiertesten medizinischen Fortbildungseinrichtungen in Europa. Über die UEMS, die Europäische 

Union aller Fachärzte, ist das ESI als erste private Fortbildungseinrichtung durch den European Accreditation Council for Continuing 

Medical Education (EACCME) mit der höchstmöglichen Fortbildungspunktzahl für Kurse und Symposien anerkannt. Dadurch wird eine 

hochwertige, qualifizierte Aus- und Weiterbildung sichergestellt, die in den EU-Ländern und sogar den USA im gesamten Umfang anerkannt 

wird. Das vielschichtige Kurssystem mit dem Schwerpunkt auf der minimal-invasiven Chirurgie deckt nahezu alle chirurgischen 

Disziplinen ab. Die Lern- und Trainingsbedingungen im ESI sind einzigartig. Neben dem Joseph Lister Auditorium stehen zahlreiche 

Konferenzräume, Labore sowie Arbeitsplätze an virtuellen Trainingssystemen zur Verfügung. Neueste Kommunikationstechno-logien 

ermöglichen Live-Übertragungen von Operationssälen aus aller Welt und unterstützen die Schulungen optimal. Im Rahmen von 

großen internationalen Symposien bietet das ESI ein ideales Forum zum Austausch wissenschaftlicher und praxisbezogener medizinischer 

Informationen und Innovationen. Neben Medizinern nutzen auch Politiker, Gesundheitsökonomen, Juristen und Vertreter von 

Krankenkassen die ESI-Veranstaltungen zur gemeinsamen Orientierung im sich wandelnden Gesundheitsmarkt. 

Das ESI stellt auch immer wieder das ideale Ambiente für Patientenforen. In der monatlichen Veranstaltungsreihe »Gesundheitsforum« 

erhalten Betroffene die Möglichkeit, sich mit Experten zu brennenden Fragen der Medizin auszutauschen. Die exzellente Wissens- und 

Fähigkeitsvermittlung, wie sie im ESI praktiziert wird, ist der richtige Weg, Patienten eine interdisziplinäre medizinische Versorgung auf 

höchstem Niveau anbieten zu können – gemäß dem ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY Motto: »Transforming Patient Care through Innovation!« 

Doch was wäre die Medizin ohne Kunst, Musik und andere kulturelle Veranstaltungen? Das traditionelle Schleswig-Holstein Musik 

Festival gastiert jährlich im ESI. Der weltweit gefeierte Pianist Leon Fleischer (Baltimore/USA) gab Kostproben seiner Virtuosität. Ida 

Bieler, renommierte Geigerin und Musikprofessorin, präsentierte ihren Meisterkurs, und das Gorki Symphonieorchester verzauberte mit 

einem vielumjubelten Beethoven-Konzert. In der Reihe Text und Musik ergänzten sich Christian Quadflieg und das Ensemble Resonanz 

mit der Kreutzersonate, einer Erzählung von Tolstoi und Musik von Beethoven und Janácek. Eine Tradition im ESI haben auch die 

Kunstausstellungen mit Fotos, Skulpturen, Gemälden und Objekten im Lichthof.

One Face to the Customer | Unter diesem Motto wird jeder Kunde von 

einem festen Ansprechpartner betreut. Unabhängig davon, welche Produkte 

er bestellen möchte, verbindet bei Anwahl der zentralen Hotline-Nummer 

0180 1 000 829 (0,046 Euro/Min. von 9:00 bis 18:00 Uhr, sonst 0,025 Euro/Min.), 

Fax: 0800 1 016 138 (kostenfrei) jeden Disponenten automatisch mit dem richtigen 

Sachbearbeiter(in) im CUSTOMER SERVICE. Dieses System gestaltet das 

Geschäft zwischen ETHICON und seinen Kunden persönlicher. Das ist nicht 

nur ein weiterer Benefit im Spektrum eines professionellen Dienstleistungsangebots, 

sondern auch eine konsequente Anwendung der kundenorientierten 

ETHICON Philosophie. Der Customer Service von ETHICON ENDO-SURGERY 

ist unter einer separaten Servicenummer erreichbar. 

Logistik | Der Bereich DISTRIBUTION der ETHICON GmbH ist mit dem 

Warehouse und der Exportabteilung der zentrale Umschlagplatz für rund 

11.000 Produkte aller Business Units am Standort Norderstedt. Auf einer 

Gesamtfläche von 12.000 m2 gewährleisten 90 Mitarbeiter einen täglichen 

Durchlauf von über 50.000 Verpackungseinheiten. Auf nationaler Ebene werden 

täglich bis zu 1.500 Bestellungen von Krankenhäusern, Ärzten und 

Apotheken bearbeitet und mit Kurierdiensten auf den Weg gebracht. Bei 

einem durchschnittlichen Versandgewicht von 3,5 kg erfolgt die Anlieferung 

beim Kunden in der Regel innerhalb von 24 Stunden, bei Bedarf auch schneller. 

Der internationale Versand erfolgt überwiegend im Rahmen der weltweiten 

Johnson&Johnson Supply Chain an Konzernunternehmen im Ausland. Es werden 

jedoch auch Lieferungen direkt an Kunden in über 100 Länder der Welt 

verschickt.

Aufgaben: Suchen, Finden und Nutzen aller Möglichkeiten, die das Internet 

bietet, um für ETHICON Kunden immer den optimalen Service zu generieren. 

Ein beispielhaftes E-COMMERCE Projekt ist GHX | GHX (Global Healthcare 

Exchange) ist eine offene elektronische Einkaufsplattform für Krankenhäuser, an 

die Johnson&Johnson zusammen mit vielen anderen Unternehmen der 

Medizinprodukte- und Pharmaindustrie angeschlossen ist. GHX hat das Ziel, 

die Versorgungsprozesse im Krankenhaus der Zukunft weitestgehend zu automatisieren. 

Die zukunftsweisende Dimension des GHX-Systems ist die 

Vernetzung eines unternehmenübergreifenden Gesamtkatalogs der Industrie 

mit den internen Materialwirtschaftssystemen der Krankenhäuser. Der Nutzen 

von E-Procurement liegt für alle Geschäftspartner in der Aufhebung der 

Medienbrüche, der Fehlervermeidung und der Minimierung der Bestellprozesskosten. 

Dies führt zu einer Qualitätssteigerung bei gleichzeitiger 

Kostensenkung. Die Module im Einzelnen: Elektronischer Produktkatalog 

ermöglicht Zugriff auf aktualisierte, vom Lieferanten gepflegte Stammdaten 

und ist online verfügbar | Elektronische Bestellung papierlos, schnell, 

sicher, fehlerfrei, unkompliziert | Elektronische Auftragsbestätigung 

erhält das Krankenhaus sofort als Rückmeldung für einwandfreien Versand 

Elektronische Bestell-Statusmeldung erhält das Krankenhaus unmittelbar 

nach Versand mit Information über Verfügbarkeit der Produkte. 

Elektronischer Lieferschein führt zur Optimierung der Wareneingangsbearbeitung 

im Krankenhaus | Elektronische Rechnung digitalisierte 

Rechnung zur Optimierung der Rechnungsbearbeitung und Beschleunigung 

der Abrechnung | Elektronische Konsignationslagerabrechnung übermittelt 

die Verbräuche und erzeugt ggf. Wiederauffüllung. Für die interne 

Prozessoptimierung in den Krankenhäusern besteht die Möglichkeit der papierlosen 

Bestellung per Scanner direkt aus dem OP. 

Internet Services | E-Commerce is the 

abbreviation for Electronic Commerce, and the 

name of the cross-unit Business Service Area 

with, primarily, the following strategic tasks: 

indentify, locate and exploit all possibilities 

the internet offers which assist ETHICON to 

continually provide its customers with optimal 

service. GHX is an exemplary E-Commerce 

project. GHX (Global Healthcare Exchange) 

is an open electronic purchasing platform for 

hospitals where Johnson&Johnson, along 

with many other medical and pharmaceutical 

companies, presents its products. The aim of 

GHX is, as far as possible, to automate the 

supply process for the hospital of the future. 

The forward-looking dimension of the GHX 

system is the way it links an inter-company 

catalog for the industry with hospitals’ 

internal inventory control systems. E-Procurement 

benefits all parties by eliminating 

middlemen, avoiding errors and minimizing 

the costs of the ordering process. 

This leads at the same time to both increased 

quality and reduced costs. 

The individual modules: 

Electronic Product Catalog enables online 

access to updated product information direct 

from the supplier. 

Electronic Ordering – paperless, fast, secure, 

error-free and simple. 

Electronic Order Confirmation is sent to the 

hospital immediately. 

Electronic Order Status Information is issued 

to the hospital immediately after dispatch, 

with information regarding product 

availability. 

Electronic Delivery Notes optimize the 

goods-in procedure in the hospital. 

Electronic Invoicing digitalises invoices to 

optimize invoice processing and accelerate 

payment. 

Electronic Stock Control transfers consumption 

data and, where necessary, generates refill 

orders. For internal process optimization in 

hospitals, there is the possibility of paperless 

ordering by scanner directly from the 

operating theater.


Finanzen und Controlling | Der Finanzbereich unterstützt mit betriebswirtschaftlichen 

Analysen die Wirtschaftlichkeit der Business Units und ist durch die 

Sicherstellung einer ordnungsgemäßen Buchführung für die Einhaltung von 

Gesetzes- und Konzernvorschriften verantwortlich. Eine zentrale Buchhaltung 

und ein auf die Business Units ausgerichtetes dezentrales Controlling sorgen 

für eine durchgängige Betreuung. 

Operative Administration | GENERAL SERVICES setzt sich aus sechs Teilbereichen 

zusammen, die für die interne Infrastruktur und die administrative 

Entlastung der Mitarbeiter zuständig sind. Der Employee Service umfasst 

den Postverkehr, die Kasse, die Pflanzen- und Grundstückspflege, die 

Abfallentsorgung, die Organisation der Raumpflege, die Ausgabe von Ausweisen 

und Parkberechtigungen, den Kopierservice. Ein Helpdesk nimmt 

Wünsche, Feedbacks und Anregungen der Mitarbeiter entgegen. Das 

Building Management übernimmt alle Aufgaben rund um die Gebäude und 

deren Versorgungseinrichtungen (Aufzüge, Klima, Heizung, Feuerlöscheinrichtungen, 

Wasserversorgung etc.). Im Purchasing Non-Stock werden alle 

strategischen und operativen Einkaufsaktivitäten für den Eigenbedarf (inkl. 

EDV, Marketing und technische Teile), sprich alle Waren, die nicht eingelagert 

werden, sowie Dienstleistungen gebündelt. Die Security Abteilung betreut die 

Rezeptionen und Telefonzentralen in der Robert-Koch-Straße und Oststraße 

und ist überdies für den Werksschutz verantwortlich. Im Bereich Safety & 

Environmental werden alle Aufgaben aus den Bereichen Arbeitssicherheit 

und Umweltmanagement zusammengefasst. Die Cafeteria ist mit ihrer 

herausragenden Servicequalität unter allen Mitarbeitern der ETHICON GmbH 

bekannt und beliebt. 


FINANCE 

Finances and Controlling | The Finance 

area supports the commercial viability of the 

business units with economic analysis and is 

responsible to ensure that relevant laws and 

company by-laws are adhered to by means 

of regulated accounting procedures. 

Central accounting, in conjunction with 

decentralised controlling built around the 

business units, facilitate complete and 

thorough financial management. 



Operative Administration | General 

Services is composed of six areas, responsible 

for the internal infrastructure and the 

administrative support of employees. 

Employee Services includes post, cash desk, 

estates management, waste disposal, 

cleaning, photocopying and the issuing of 

identity passes and parking permits. 

A helpdesk accepts requests, feedback and 

complaints from employees. 

Buildings Management is responsible for 

everything to do with the buildings and 

their provision with utility services 

(lifts, air conditioning, heating, fire 

extinguishers/sprinklers, water, etc.). 

Purchasing Non-Stock are responsible for all 

strategic and operations-related purchasing 

of non-stock items (incl. IT, marketing and 

technical items) – that is, all goods which are 

not used in production or for resale – along 

with purchasing of services. 

The Security department takes care of 

reception and the telephone switchboard at 

the Robert-Koch-Strasse and Oststrasse sites, 

as well as being responsible for plant security. 

The Safety & Environmental area includes 

all tasks related to work safety and environmental 

management. The Cafeteria, with its 

outstanding service quality, is known and 

loved by all employees at ETHICON GmbH.

Personaldienstleistungen | Der Business Services Bereich HUMAN 

RESOURCES funktioniert wie eine übergeordnete Personalabteilung, von der 

aus alle Business Units und anderen Business Service Departments mit personalwirtschaftlichen 

Dienstleistungen versorgt werden. Neben den klassischen 

Aufgaben wie Gehaltsabrechnung und Rekrutierung von Mitarbeitern liegt ein 

besonderer Schwerpunkt auf der individuellen Förderung und Weiterentwicklung 

der Mitarbeiter (siehe Kapitel Training & Transfer Seite 064). Einheitlich 

strukturierte Mitarbeitergespräche und -beurteilungen schaffen unternehmensweit 

faire Grundlagen für alle Formen der Personalentwicklung. Die 

Vermittlung von Mitarbeitern zur Teilnahme an einem der vielfältigen internationalen 

Austauschprogramme innerhalb von Johnson&Johnson ist eine konstruktive 

Unterstützung bei der Vorbereitung auf weiterführende Aufgaben in 

den Strukturen der ETHICON GmbH. Ausbildung | Ein weiterer Aufgabenbereich 

von HUMAN RESOURCES ist das individuelle Integrieren von Berufsanfängern 

und Hochschulabsolventen in die spezifischen Arbeitsfelder des 

Unternehmens (siehe Kapitel Ausbildung Seite 057). Vor diesem Hintergrund 

bietet HUMAN RESOURCES Hochschulabsolventen praxisorientierte Trainee- 

Programme in den Business Units an. Die Betreuung durch erfahrene 

Führungskräfte, das Erarbeiten eigenständiger Projekte und die Einbindung in 

die tägliche Praxis ermöglichen den Berufsanfängern einen interessanten und 

erfolgreichen Einstieg in ihr Berufsfeld und ein solides Fundament für ihre persönliche 

Karrierefindung. In enger Abstimmung mit den einzelnen Business 

Units und anderen Business Services ist HUMAN RESOURCES ein elementarer 

Faktor für die sprichwörtliche Mitarbeiterqualität der ETHICON GmbH. 

Betriebsärztliche Versorgung | Dem Bereich HUMAN RESOURCES unterstellt 

ist auch die betriebsärztliche Versorgung mit den Schwerpunkten: Allgemeine 

Versorgung, Berufskrankheiten, Bildschirmarbeitsberatung, Impfempfehlungen 

bei Fernreisen, Impfungen i. A. (Grippeschutz, Hepatitis A, B, C, etc.) 

Personnel Services | The Human 

Resources area of Business Services functions 

as a central personnel department, providing 

all business units and other Business 

Services departments with personnel-related 

services. Alongside the classic duties such 

as salary calculation and recruiting staff, 

particular attention is given to employees’ 

individual promotion and development 

(see Training & Transfer, page 064). 

Company-wide standard formats for 

employee performance reviews ensure a 

fair basis for all personnel issues. Coordinating 

the participation of employees 

in the many and varied international 

exchange programs within J&J provides 

constructive support in preparing for further 

duties within ETHICON GmbH itself. 

Trainee Programs: Human Resources is also 

charged with the individual integration of 

trainees/apprentices and university graduates 

into the company’s various specific 

activities (see Trainee Programs, page 057). 

Human Resources offers university graduates 

practice-oriented trainee programs in 

the business units. Trainees receive an 

interesting and successful start to their 

careers through supervision by experienced 

managers, co-ordinating their own projects 

and involvement with daily business. 

This provides a solid foundation for their 

personal career development. Human 

Resources is a key factor for the proverbial 

quality of staff at ETHICON GmbH, 

achieved through close co-operation with 

the individual business units and other 

Business Services areas. 

Site Medical Care is also part of Human 

Resources, focusing on: general medical 

care, work-related illnesses, VDU consultation, 

immunization advice for travelers, 

immunization (influenza, hepatitis 

A,B,C, etc.).


Kontrolle auf Vorschriftsmäßigkeit | Der Business Services Bereich 

REGULATORY AFFAIRS ist dafür verantwortlich, dass alle von den Business 

Units der ETHICON GmbH produzierten oder vertriebenen Produkte den 

Regularien, also den anwendbaren Gesetzen und Vorschriften, entsprechen 

und somit verkehrsfähig sind. Der Aufgabenbereich umfasst sowohl die 

Leitung von Produktzulassungsverfahren als auch die nationalen und internationalen 

behördlichen Registrierungen der Produkte. Auch alle produktbezogenen 

Informationen, die an Ärzte und medizinisches Fachpersonal 

abgegeben werden, sind von REGULATORY AFFAIRS auf gesetzeskonforme 

und sachliche Richtigkeit geprüft. 



Supervision of Conformity with 

Regulations | The regulatory Affairs area of 

Business Services is responsible to ensure 

that all products, manufactured and/or sold 

by ETHICON GmbH business units, conform 

to the applicable laws and regulations and 

are therefore fit for sale. 

This area includes co-ordinating product 

certification procedures and the national 

and international registration of products. 

All product-related information to be issued 

to doctors and specialist medical personnel 

are first checked by REGULATORY AFFAIRS 

for accuracy and for conformity with legal 

requirements.

production facilities, to the Regulatory Affairs 

Department and to ESI on the one hand, 

and the outstanding contacts maintained 

with scientifically active surgeons and surgical 

opinion-formers throughout Europe 

on the other, facilitate a particularly efficient 

working model and have led to the

Koalitionen und Partnerschaften mit Kostenträgern und anderen Entscheidungsträgern 

im Gesundheitssystem aufgebaut vor dem Hintergrund einer 

adäquaten Vergütung aller J&J Produkte und Verfahren durch die gesetzlichen 

und privaten Krankenversicherungen. Gerade im Hinblick auf zukünftige 

gesundheitspolitische, ökonomische und gesetzliche Veränderungen spielen 

Flexibilität und Anpassungsgeschwindigkeit eine wesentliche Rolle für die 

rechtzeitige Aufnahme der Produkte in die Leistungskataloge der Kostenträger 

beziehungsweise die Vereinbarung alternativer Finanzierungsformen. Wichtige 

Aufgabe für J&J HEALTH CARE MANAGEMENT ist es, detaillierte Systemkenntnisse 

intern zu erwerben und extern zu vermitteln, um es den Business Units 

zu ermöglichen, visionäre Strategien zu realisieren. Nur so ist es möglich, langfristig

Diagnostics Business Units in developing 

and implementing solutions that are practical 

and effective for all those concerned. 

Long-term coalitions and partnerships with 

payers and other decision makers in the 

health care system are crucial to achieving 

appropriate funding and reimbursement 

for all J&J products and procedures through 

the sickness funds and private health care 

insurers. With a view to future changes and 

reforms in health policy and economics 

flexibility and speed of adaptability are key 

to the establishment of reimbursement by 

the payers or through alternative means of 

funding. A fundamental responsibility of 

J&J Health Care Management is to obtain 

detailed insight into the system as well as 

making this knowledge available throughout 

the organization. Enabling the business units 

to implement innovative and creative strategies 

is essential to maintaining long-term 

market leadership and to ensuring patients 

and care-givers timely access to the best 

and most effective products and services.

Unternehmensentwicklung 

Vom Familienunternehmen zur ETHICON GmbH 

1956 übernimmt Johnson&Johnson die Hamburger 

Katgut- und Arzneimittelfabrik. Sehr schnell wachsen 

die Aktivitäten über die Räumlichkeiten im Stadtteil 

Winterhude hinaus, wo der frühere Familienbetrieb 

mit 60 Mitarbeitern ansässig war. So entsteht 1962 in 

Glashütte am Nordrand Hamburgs, dem heutigen 

Norderstedt, ein moderner Firmenkomplex, 

in dem die Produktionskapazitäten erheblich 

ausgeweitet werden können. 

Der Name ETHICON ist geboren. 

Das im selben Jahr gegründete Forschungs- und 

Entwicklungszentrum hat maßgeblichen Anteil 

am künftigen Erfolg der ETHICON GmbH. 

1993 wird das EUROPEAN SURGICAL INSTITUTE (ESI) 

eröffnet. 1999 fusionieren die in Norderstedt 

ansässigen Business Units zur ETHICON GmbH. 

Hier in Norderstedt wurde die ETHICON GmbH 

dank zukunftsweisender Produktpolitik und traditionell 

geführter Kundenbetreuung zu einem der größten 

Hersteller von hochspezialisierten chirurgischen 

Medizinprodukten. Der permanente Zugriff 

auf alle globalen Ressourcen des Konzerns 

sowie konsequente Forschung und Entwicklung 

definieren schon heute den Standard von morgen 

in Bezug auf Innovation und Perfektion der Branche. 

Die Historie der ETHICON GmbH in Deutschland 

Corporate Development 

The ETHICON history 

In 1956 Johnson & Johnson took 

over the Hamburger Katgut- und 

Arzneimittelfabrik. The activities 

quickly outgrew the premises in 

the Hamburg district of Winterhude, 

where the former family 

business with its 60 employees 

was based. And so, in 1962, a 

modern corporate complex was 

constructed at Glashuette, on 

the northern edge of Hamburg – 

the village is now part of the city 

of Norderstedt – where production 

capacities could be significantly 

expanded. The ETHICON 

name was born. The R&D department, 

founded in the same year, 

played a considerable part in 

the future success of ETHICON 

GmbH. In 1993 the European 

Surgical Institute (ESI) was 

opened. In 1999 the business 

units based in Norderstedt were 

merged into ETHICON GmbH. 

Here in Norderstedt, thanks to 

forward-looking production policies 

and traditional customer service, 

ETHICON GmbH became 

one of the largest manufacturers 

of highly-specialized surgical 

products. Continual access to all 

the global resources of the J&J 

group, along with consistent 

research and development, define 

tomorrow’s standards today 

when it comes to innovation and 

perfection in the industry.

Credo – ich glaube | »Allem voran steht unsere Verantwortung gegenüber 

den Ärzten, Krankenschwestern und Patienten, aber auch gegenüber 

Müttern, Vätern und all den Menschen, die unsere Produkte 

verwenden oder unsere Dienste in Anspruch nehmen. Die Erfüllung 

ihrer Ansprüche erfordert von uns stets hohes Qualitätsniveau. Wir 

müssen ständig bemüht sein, unsere Kosten so niedrig wie möglich zu 

halten, damit wir vernünftige Preise beibehalten können. Aufträge 

unserer Kunden müssen umgehend und zuverlässig ausgeführt werden. 

Unseren Lieferanten wie auch unseren Abnehmern sollen wir die 

Möglichkeit geben, einen angemessenen Gewinn zu erzielen. 

Verantwortung tragen wir auch für unsere Mitarbeiter, für all jene 

Frauen und Männer, die auf der ganzen Welt bei uns tätig sind. Jeder 

von ihnen ist als Individuum zu achten. Ihre Würde muss respektiert 

und ihre Verdienste müssen anerkannt werden. Sie müssen auf die 

Sicherheit ihres Arbeitsplatzes vertrauen können. Die Vergütung für 

die Arbeit muss fair und angemessen sein, die Arbeitsplätze unfallsicher, 

sauber und ordentlich. Wir müssen unsere Mitarbeiter auch bei 

der Wahrnehmung ihrer Verantwortung gegenüber ihren Familien 

unterstützen. Die Mitarbeiter sollen sich ermutigt fühlen, Vorschläge 

zu machen und auch Beschwerden vorzutragen. Bei entsprechender 

Qualifikation muss Chancengerechtigkeit gegeben sein, sowohl bei der 

Einstellung als auch bei Förderung und Beförderung. Dabei ist es unsere 

Aufgabe, dafür zu sorgen, dass fähige Führungskräfte zur Verfügung 

stehen, die gerecht und ethisch handeln. 

Verpflichtet fühlen wir uns auch gegenüber dem Gemeinwesen, in dem 

wir leben und arbeiten, aber auch gegenüber der ganzen Menschheit. 

Wir müssen uns als gute Staatsbürger erweisen, das Gemeinwohl im 

Auge haben, Wohltätigkeits-Organisationen unterstützen sowie auch 

unseren angemessenen Teil an Steuern tragen. Wir müssen uns für die 

Verbesserung allgemeiner Lebensbedingungen, speziell der Gesundheitsfürsorge 

und der Bildung, einsetzen. Wir haben das uns für unsere 

Arbeit anvertraute Firmeneigentum in gutem Zustand zu erhalten 

und wollen dabei den Schutz der Umwelt nicht außer Acht lassen. 

Schließlich sind wir unseren Aktionären gegenüber verantwortlich. Ein 

angemessener Gewinn muss erwirtschaftet werden. Wir sollen neuen 

Ideen gegenüber stets aufgeschlossen bleiben. Die Forschung ist voranzutreiben, 

fortschrittliche Entwicklungsprogramme sind zu entwerfen, 

durch Fehler entstandene Verluste müssen getragen werden. Neue 

Ausrüstungen müssen erworben, neue Einrichtungen erstellt werden; 

auch sind neue Produkte auf den Markt zu bringen. Reserven als 

Vorsorge für schlechtere Zeiten müssen gebildet werden. Wenn wir 

nach diesen Grundsätzen handeln, werden die Aktionäre eine angemessene 

Dividende erwarten können.« 

We believe our first responsibility 

is to the doctors, nurses and patients, 

to mothers and fathers and 

all others who use our products and 

services. In meeting their needs 

everything we do must be of high 

quality. We must constantly strive to 

reduce our costs in order to maintain 

reasonable prices. Customers’ 

orders must be serviced promptly 

and accurately. Our suppliers and 

distributors must have an opportunity 

to make a fair profit. 

We are responsible to our employees, 

the men and women who work

good works and charities and bear 

our fair share of taxes. We must 

encourage civic improvements and 

better health and education. We

to these principles, the stockholders 

should realize a fair return.

Unternehmenskultur 

Die Kraft des Credos 

Der Name ETHICON verkündet bereits den ethischen 

Anspruch des Unternehmens. Das von Robert Wood 

Johnson 1943 verfasste Credo (credo, lat.: ich glaube) 

ist – nahezu unverändert – bindende Grundlage für alle 

Mitarbeiter in allen Johnson&Johnson Unternehmen. 

Die unsichtbaren Bande dieses Bekenntnisses harmonisieren 

die Werte des Unternehmens global und lassen die 

Mitarbeiter in Norderstedt mit demselben Selbstverständnis 

handeln wie Johnson&Johnson Mitarbeiter in Mexiko, 

Südafrika oder Australien. 

Die Kraft, die sich daraus generiert, stellt einen der 

maßgeblichen Erfolgsfaktoren des Konzerns dar. 

Umgekehrt profitiert jeder einzelne Mitarbeiter von der Kraft 

des Ganzen, von seiner nationalen und internationalen 

Glaubwürdigkeit, von den fast grenzenlosen 

Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten und von der 

Unternehmenskultur, die im Credo formuliert und von den 

Menschen im Konzern gelebt wird. 

Damit die im Credo enthaltenen Aussagen nicht bloße 

Theorie bleiben, werden die Unternehmen alle zwei Jahre 

einer Mitarbeiterbefragung unterzogen, in der gemessen 

wird, in welchem Umfang die Leitsätze zur praktischen 

Anwendung gebracht werden. 

Die Werte der ETHICON GmbH 

Grundlagen der Authentizität 

Corporate Culture 

The Power of the Credo 

The name ETHICON proclaims 

the company’s ethical demands. 

The Credo (credo, lat.: I believe) 

was composed by Robert Wood 

Johnson in 1943 and remains, 

almost without alteration, the 

binding charter for all employees 

in all Johnson&Johnson companies. 

The invisible bonds of this 

confession harmonize the values 

of the group globally, and allow 

employees in Norderstedt to operate 

with the same self-image as 

Johnson&Johnson employees in 

Mexico, South Africa or Australia. 

The power that this generates 

represents a substantial success 

factor for the group. Conversely, 

every individual employee benefits 

from the power of the whole, 

from the national and international 

credibility, from the almost 

unlimited opportunities for development 

and from the corporate 

culture formulated in the Credo 

and lived out by J&J’s people. 

So that the statements in the 

Credo do not remain simple theory, 

Johnson&Johnson issues a 

questionnaire to employees every 

two years, to determine the context 

in which the declarations are 

being practically applied.

Vocational Training at ETHICON ETHICON GmbH: training 

The Best Qualifications from the Very Beginning

independent project work provide 

systematic support in the search for

path to a specialist trade qualification 

possible. ETHICON GmbH in Norderstedt 

2004 initiative, Apprentice +

apprenticeship places to 72. This 

provides a constructive easing of the 

apprenticeship market on the one 

hand, and enables the company to 

fill vacancies with engaged and

other. In 2004, eleven of the twelve 

apprentices who had successfully 

completed their training were given 

permanent positions as administrators, 

chemical laboratory technicians,

People Development 

Kontinuierliches und systematisches Investment in die Kompetenz aller Mitarbeiter 

der ETHICON GmbH ist eine weitere Grundlage des anhaltenden Geschäftserfolgs 

in einem sich permanent wandelnden und ausweitenden Markt. 

Spezielle Schulungsprogramme in den USA, Rezertifizierungskurse und regelmäßige 

Vertriebstagungen sind nur einige beispielhafte Instrumente im Repertoire zukunftsichernder 

und vorsprunggenerierender Maßnahmen. Seit langem bewähren sich vertriebsseitig auch 

Produktspezialisten mit fundiertem medizinischen Background, die den Einsatz von 

Implantaten und Instrumenten direkt im OP beratend unterstützen. 

In allen Organisationsstrukturen der ETHICON GmbH versteht sich People Development 

als kontinuierliche Suche nach persönlichen Verbesserungspotenzialen 

und ist definierter Bestandteil der Selbstreflexion der Mitarbeiter. 

Continual and systematic investment in 

the competence of all ETHICON GmbH 

employees represents another key to the 

company’s persistent success in an everchanging 

and growing market. Special 

training programs in the USA, re-certification 

courses and regular sales conferences 

are just a few examples of the 

many tools in the company’s progressgenerating 

and forward-looking repertoire. 

Product specialists with sound 

medical knowledge have been taking an 

active sales role by providing consultative 

support for the usage of implants and 

instruments directly in operating theaters. 

In all of ETHICON GmbH’s organizational 

structures, People Development 

is seen as the continual search for the 

potential for self-improvement. This is 

a clear aspect of our employees’ selfanalysis.

The specialist and interdisciplinary knowledge 

of ETHICON’s sales and marketing 

staff is one of many reasons for the close 

partnerships the company has with 

almost all medical disciplines. The trust 

that doctors have for the high quality and 

the level of innovation of our products 

is certainly another significant success 

factor. The lion’s share of credit for 

ETHICON’s good name, however, must 

go to the long tradition of fair and 

responsible co-operation and to the permanent 

willingness of all employees to 

work personally on the challenges and 

tasks facing their customers. Solutionoriented 

and far removed from all forms 

of bureaucracy. Competence and reliability 

without compromise distinguish all 

ETHICON employees. Continuity and 

passion in quality and service are the 

embodiment of the Credo as Robert 

Wood Johnson originally intended it to 

be understood, and generate emotional 

capital for a company that is daily placed 

under the microscope by an especially 

demanding and critical customer base. 

Das Image der ETHICON GmbH 

Nur Leistung schafft Vertrauen 


Erfolg aus Leidenschaft 

(Success from Passion) 

Das fachliche und interdisziplinäre Verständnis der ETHICON Mitarbeiter in Vertrieb und 

Marketing ist einer der vielen Gründe für die engen partnerschaftlichen Beziehungen 

des Unternehmens zu nahezu allen Disziplinen der Medizin. Sicher ist auch das Vertrauen 

der Ärzte in die hohe Qualität und den Innovationsgrad der Produkte ein bedeutender 

Erfolgsfaktor. Den größten Anteil am positiven Klang des Namens ETHICON aber haben 

wohl die lange Tradition eines immer fairen und verantwortlichen Miteinanders 

und die permanente Bereitschaft aller Mitarbeiter, sich persönlich für die Aufgaben 

und Herausforderungen, die seitens ihrer Kunden an sie herangetragen werden, 

einzusetzen. Lösungsorientiert und fernab jeder Bürokratie. Kompromisslos zuverlässig 

und mit der Fachkompetenz, die alle ETHICON Mitarbeiter auszeichnet. 

Kontinuität und Leidenschaft in Qualität und Service sind gelebtes Credo im ursprünglichen 

Sinne von Robert Wood Johnson und emotionales Kapital eines Unternehmens, 

das jeden Tag neu auf den Prüfstand einer besonders anspruchsvollen 

und kritischen Kundschaft gestellt wird.

Zukunftsfaktor Entwicklung 

Um das über Jahre erarbeitete positive Image der ETHICON GmbH 

auch in Zukunft mit neuen Inhalten füllen zu können, 

arbeitet das Unternehmen in enger Kooperation mit der 

Konzernmutter Johnson&Johnson auf vielen Ebenen an 

der fortgesetzten Qualifikation seiner Kapazitäten. 

Forschung und Entwicklung sind tragende Säulen des 

unternehmerischen Innovationsanspruchs und per se in ihrer 

Bedeutung zukunftsgerichtet. 

Hier werden heute die Materialien, Instrumente und OP-Verfahren 

konzipiert und konstruiert, die morgen das Geschäft des 

Unternehmens sichern werden. 

Die enge wissenschaftliche Verzahnung mit führenden Medizinern 

generiert immer wieder neue, oft überraschende Lösungen 

für die anspruchsvollen Problemstellungen 

unterschiedlichster Indikationen.

(Building Blocks for Securing the Site) 

In order to refresh the positive 

image that ETHICON GmbH has 

built over a period of several years, 

the company is working in close cooperation 

with the parent company 

Johnson & Johnson on many levels. 

The aim is to add new content to 

the company’s image by continually 

expanding its capacities. Research 

and development are pillars of the 

company’s expectations for innovation 

and are, per se, future-oriented. 

The materials, instruments and surgical 

procedures conceptualised 

and constructed here today will 

secure the company’s operations 

tomorrow. The close scientific collaboration 

with leading physicians continually 

generates new, often surprising 

solutions to the demanding 

problems associated with widely 

varying conditions.

ETHICON Training & Transfer: 

Zukunftsfaktor Lernen 

Unsere Zukunft erfordert lebenslanges 

Lernen. Diese Herausforderung 

anzunehmen, liegt in der 

Verantwortung jedes einzelnen 

Mitarbeiters. Die ETHICON GmbH 

hat mit der TT AKADEMIE ein 

internes System entwickelt, das 

das Unternehmen durch Training 

und Transfer zu einer lernenden 

Organisation macht. Im 

Mittelpunkt aller Fortbildungen 

steht die Eigeninitiative und 

Selbstverantwortung der Teilnehmer 

sowie deren Fach-, Sozialund 

Managementkompetenz auf 

Basis des Credos und der 

Standards of Leadership. Durch 

Intervallseminare, Coaching am 

Arbeitsplatz und Follow-ups wird 

das vielfältige Wissen effektiv und 

nachhaltig transferiert: 

Fachliche Trainings + Methodische 

Trainings + Persönlichkeitstrainings 

+ Führungstrainings + Unternehmensspezifische 

Trainings + Teamentwicklung 

+ J&J Führungstrainings 

+ Sprachkurse 

+ EDV-Kurse 

Our future demands lifelong 

learning. It is the responsibility 

of every employee to accept this 

challenge. ETHICON GmbH has 

developed an internal system – 

the TT Academy – that uses 

Training and Transfer to turn the 

company into a learning organisation. 

Central to all further 

education and training are the 

participant’s own initiative and 

responsibility, along with his or 

her technical, social and management 

competence based on 

the Credo and the Standards of 

Leadership. Extensive knowledge 

is effectively transferred by 

regular seminars, on-the-job 

coaching and follow-ups: 

Specialist training + methodological 

training + personal coaching 

+ leadership training + 

company-specific training + team 

development + J&J management 

training + language courses +

ETHICON EINBLICK: 

Zukunftsfaktor Information 

Bewusst den Weg in die gemeinsame 

Zukunft zu beschreiten, 

heißt informiert sein über Hintergründe 

und Konsequenzen. 

Das gilt für das Management im 

gleichen Maße wie für jeden 

Mitarbeiter. Als alle Abteilungen 

und Business Units übergreifendes 

Medium hat die ETHICON GmbH 

das Mitarbeitermagazin EINBLICK 

etabliert. Auf meist 24 Seiten 

erfährt der interessierte Leser 

quartalsweise alles über neue 

Richtungen in der Unternehmenspolitik 

und deren Hintergründe, 

neue Trends und Innovationen, 

aktuelle Kongressaktivitäten, 

Highlights in der Produktion und 

im Betriebssport. Ein internes 

Redaktionsteam generiert die 

jeweiligen Themenschwerpunkte, 

die daraufhin journalistisch recherchiert 

und verfasst werden. 

Die Gestaltung jeder Magazinausgabe 

liegt in den professionellen 

Händen einer Agentur. 

Der EINBLICK trägt maßgeblich zu 

dem hohen Informationsniveau in 

der gesamten Belegschaft bei. 

To consciously take the path 

towards a common future 

means being informed of the 

background and consequences. 

This applies as much for management 

as it does for every 

employee. ETHICON GmbH 

established the employee magazine 

Einblick as a medium to 

reach all departments and 

business units. The quarterly 

magazine, normally 24 pages, 

contains everything the interested 

reader wants to know about 

new directions in company 

policy and their background, 

new trends and innovations, 

current conference activities, 

production highlights and the 

works sport program. An internal 

editorial team generates the 

subject focus for each edition, 

which are then journalistically 

researched and reported. The 

design and production of each 

edition is in the professional 

hands of an agency. Einblick 

makes a considerable contribution 

to the high level of 

information throughout the 

workforce.

Process Excellence: 

Zukunftsfaktor Qualitätsmanagement 

Um die Zukunftsfähigkeit des Konzerns auch langfristig zu gewährleisten, 

hat Johnson&Johnson über die gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen 

Qualitätsmanagement-Zertifizierungen hinaus ein für all seine 

weltweiten Niederlassungen gültiges Management- 

System mit einheitlichen Reglements entwickelt. 

Mit dieser – Process Excellence genannten – Initiative werden 

branchenübergreifend Maßstäbe in der Verbesserung 

von Geschäftsprozessen gesetzt. 

Alle Unternehmen des Konzerns werden seit 1989 von einem 

globalen Management-Board regelmäßig aufgefordert, sich einem 

Assessment zu stellen und ihre zentralen Geschäftsprozesse 

im Rahmen der Process Excellence Parameter zu dokumentieren, zu 

reflektieren und – wenn nötig – Verbesserungen einzuleiten. 

Da sich das Assessment in einem Rhythmus von drei Jahren 

wiederholt, wird nach Abschluss der internen Interviews ein 

Management Action Plan erstellt, der konkrete Maßnahmen und 

Optimierungsvorschläge der Geschäftsprozesse enthält. 

An der Erfüllung dieser Maßnahmen wird das Unternehmen nach 

Ablauf der Dreijahresfrist gemessen und erneut bewertet. 

Diese analytische und sehr systematische Methode, das eigene 

Unternehmen zu durchleuchten, bietet den Verantwortlichen eine 

objektive Transparenz und die Option gezielter Steuerungsmaßnahmen 

im Sinne einer zukunftssicheren Planung: 

Identifizierung der Optimierungspotenziale 

+ Steigerung der Effizienz aller Kernprozesse 

+ Optimierung der Geschäftsprozesse 

+ Verbesserung des Geschäftsergebnisses

To ensure the long-term viability 

of the group, Johnson&Johnson 

has developed a management 

system, exceeding the legislative 

and regulatory requirements of 

quality management certification, 

which applies to all affiliates 

worldwide. With this initiative, 

known as Process Excellence, standards 

are applied to improve 

business processes in all industries 

in which J&J are active. 

Since 1989, all group companies 

have been regularly required by 

a global management board to 

submit to an Assessment and to 

document their central business 

processes in the context of 

Process Excellence parameters for 

analysis and – where necessary 

– to introduce improvements. 

As the Assessment is repeated 

every three years, at the end of 

the internal interview process a 

Management Action Plan is created, 

containing concrete measures 

and suggestions for optimization 

of business processes. 

The company is then assessed 

and re-evaluated on the basis of 

the fulfilment of these measures 

at the end of the three year period. 

This analytical and very systematic 

approach to inspecting 

one’s own company presents 

those responsible with an objective 

transparency and the option 

of targeted management measures 

in the sense of planning for 

the future: Identification of optimization 

potential + increased 

efficiency in all core processes + 

optimization of business processes 

+ improvement of business 

results
