Success Needs Strong Partners
Bauerfeind develops its products with people in mind. In research and development, specialists from a wide range of disciplines collaborate – including scientists, physicians, medical retailers, and orthopedic technicians. At our in-house Innovation Center in Zeulenroda, existing products are continuously refined, new ideas are created, and both technical and medical solutions are explored – independently from production. Insights from patients and experiences gained in professional sports constantly inform and improve our product development.
Our work is made possible through a strong and well-connected network of partners. Learn more about our collaborations with:

Experts in Bauerfeind Product Care
Bauerfeind has always focused on developing products that maintain health, restore mobility, and enhance well-being. Our high-quality supports, orthoses, medical compression stockings, and orthopedic insoles are available through professional medical retailers.

The Bauerfeind Academy
Quality is not only our benchmark for products but also for the people who work with them.
Since 2007, the Bauerfeind Academy has promoted continuous education and training across all areas of medical craftsmanship and retail. Under the motto “Training for All,” the Bauerfeind Academy provides learning opportunities worldwide for the management and staff of our retail partners in orthopedic technology, orthopedic shoe technology, and medical supply retail, as well as for physicians, therapists, and other healthcare professionals.

Testing quality can be fun: Bauerfeind regularly subjects its products to tests and inspection procedures — as seen here during the stability testing of the SecuTec Genu Flex at the Laboratory for Biomechatronics at Münster University of Applied Sciences (Photo: Sven Hillert).
Knowledge by and for Healthcare Experts
Bauerfeind develops its products with people at the center. In research and development, experts from various disciplines collaborate — including scientists, physicians, medical supply retailers, and orthopedic technicians.
Insights from patients and findings from the care of athletes are continuously incorporated into our product development process.
Healthcare professionals can explore these topics in greater depth on our Medical Expert Portal. Alongside the latest news and upcoming events such as trade fairs and congresses, the portal features interviews and reports with specialists from science, research, and clinical practice.

Elite Sports and Bauerfeind – Reaching Goals Together
Sports are part of our DNA. Our products play an essential role in promoting movement — in everyday life and in elite sports alike. Supporting athletic performance at regional, national, and international levels was therefore a natural next step.
