Why invest in Coloplast
Market leader in Chronic Care
We hold the global #1 position in Chronic Care (Ostomy and Continence Care). Building on this strong foundation, we see significant market expansion opportunities outside Europe. Our strategy for driving continued above-market growth is focused on the underpenetrated US market and fast-growing emerging markets.
Growth opportunities outside of Chronic Care
Looking beyond the Chronic Care market, we’ve invested in important growth platforms through M&A.
We see many growth opportunities in the segments we’ve now entered, including the ‘white space’ (unserved patients) in Voice and Respiratory Care, the underpenetrated biologics market in Advanced Wound Care, and fast-growing adjacencies in Interventional Urology, such as the over-active bladder segment.
A culture of innovation
At its core, Coloplast has a strong culture of innovation and customer focus, dedicated to improving patient outcomes through products and services.
Through innovation, we aim to benefit users, while at the same time creating value for healthcare professionals, payers and the society.
Operational excellence
We’re driving operational efficiency and scalable infrastructure through a robust manufacturing setup, our business support centre in Poland, and our streamlined IT infrastructure.
By optimising our manufacturing footprint, investing in automation and improving productivity, we’re reducing costs and benefiting from scalability and simplicity.
Financial strength
We have a strong track record of earnings growth, cash flow generation, and a solid return on invested capital, based on growth above the market and operational efficiency.
