A Partnership Built on Expertise, Development, and Trust: Meet TriconMed.
Since its founding in 2007, TriconMed has established itself as a trusted distributor in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland within the fields of compression therapy, scar management, and post-operative care. With founder Burkhard Reis at the helm, the company has grown from five employees to a strong team of 18, serving a market that demands both medical precision and innovation.
Tytex and Triconmed have collaborated for more than 15 years, building a partnership defined by mutual expertise, respect, and a relentless drive for improvement. Together, the companies have brought the Carefix® Breast Care portfolio to market, creating real impact for both healthcare professionals and patients.
Shared expertise as a foundation
Triconmed’s deep knowledge of reconstructive and aesthetic surgery markets has been invaluable in positioning Tytex’s post-operative bras. What sets this collaboration apart from other distributor-supplier relationships is not only the continuity of the partnership but also the shared ambition to innovate.
Burkhard emphasizes that the Carefix® post-op bras stand out in the market because of their seamless design, three-dimensional compression, and superior comfort compared to competitor products. This gives Triconmed strong arguments when meeting healthcare professionals who demand both functionality and patient comfort.
Our partnership with Tytex is built on trust, expertise, and the willingness to always improve. What I value most is that our needs are carefully listened to and transformed into real product solutions. From packaging adjustments to entirely new bra designs, Tytex consistently shows commitment to both us and our customers. Together we can be proud of providing the best possible products to patients. And we never stop developing.

Co-creation in product development
One of the most powerful aspects of the Tytex x Triconmed collaboration is joint product development. Triconmed gathers insights from surgeons, gynecologists, and patients, distills them into actionable feedback, and brings them to Tytex.
This process has led to the creation of products like the Alma bra, which was designed for the growing indication of lipofilling augmentation. Alma quickly proved equally valuable in breast reconstruction using body’s own tissue, showing how customer-driven insights can broaden indications and strengthen product relevance.
Small but crucial details such as softer seam placement, external sutures to reduce pressure, and zipper flaps for patients with reduced finger sensitivity all stem from this close collaboration. Each improvement reflects the philosophy that post-op bras are never “finished” products, but rather part of a continuous development journey.
Strenght in reliability and communication
Another cornerstone of this partnership is communication. Burkhard highlights the importance of having a reliable and consistent contact person at Tytex, ensuring that Triconmed’s needs are heard and acted upon. Packaging solutions, product adaptations, and even regulatory aspects are handled with a genuine willingness to find the right outcome for the market.
This creates trust not only between Tytex and Triconmed but also across the healthcare providers and patients who rely on the products.
Jørn Ole Andreasen, our International Key Account Manager, elaborates: "Having a partner like Triconmed is invaluable for Tytex. Their deep knowledge of the German market and close contact with healthcare professionals give us insights we could never generate on our own. Triconmed challenges us with new ideas, brings us direct feedback from customers, and helps us ensure that our products are always relevant and competitive. They are not just a distributor. They are a true development partner."
Facing market challenges together
The reconstructive and aesthetic surgery markets are becoming increasingly competitive, with low-cost products from Asia gaining ground. For Triconmed, it is essential to provide European-made products with certified quality, and Tytex enables exactly that. Together, the companies ensure that healthcare professionals can offer patients safe, effective, and well-developed products supported by medical expertise.
Never stop developing
The core of this partnership can be summarized in one shared belief: never stop developing. Both Tytex and Triconmed understand that patient needs evolve, competition intensifies, and new surgical techniques demand new solutions. By combining Triconmed’s market knowledge with Tytex’s innovation and manufacturing expertise, the collaboration continues to deliver top-quality products and confidence that patients are receiving the best possible care.
