Community Support

As a leader in the healthcare sector, Mölnlycke feels a strong sense of commitment to the medical profession and to patients undergoing treatment. By donating time, products, and money, Mölnlycke helps improve the lives of patients and support those who care for them.

To ensure that the organisations we support are reliable, they must:

  • Clearly state their mission and purpose
  • Work in the medical field
  • Be actively engaged in either working to improve the lives of patients, to improve staff protection, or to increase the level of knowledge in the medical field
  • Provide credible and measurable results
  • Research should be based on solid scientific facts

 

Mölnlycke Health Care is a main sponsor of Operation Smile, a mobilised force of medical professionals who provide reconstructive surgery for children born with facial deformities. Every year, Mölnlycke donates approximately 100,000 pairs of the double-glove Biogel® Indicator™ gloves and 10,000 wound dressings to this organisation. Through Mölnlycke’s Operation Smile Volunteer Programme, our employees can join Operation Smile missions.

We are also proud to support DebRA, a charity working on behalf of people with the genetic skin blistering condition Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), a genetic condition where the skin breaks at the slightest touch, causing painful, open blisters, and wounds. DebRA provides specialist EB nursing, funds extensive medical research, and provides counselling, welfare, respite, and advocacy.
