About us
Located in the internationally well-known Mirandola Bio-medical district, RanD is a knowledge-based company, established in 1999 exploiting more than 30 years’ experience in the bio-medical field. The name RanD originates from the phonetic transcription of the English acronym R&D (Research and Development) direct expression of RanD core activity: the development of technologically innovative systems based on extracorporeal circulation technologies, marked, at the same time, by extremely simplified operative management. Over the years RanD developed a whole range of products mainly focused on surgical oncology, but it also exploited its own know-how in the development of third-party cutting-edge projects in the fields of liver support, cardiopulmonary support and dialysis. RanD directly handles the whole manufacturing cycles of equipment and disposable devices, thus ensuring highest quality standards for each manufacturing phase.
