The Company
Since 1989, Heiko Wild GmbH has been producing and distributing high-quality stainless steel instruments from its headquarters in Tuttlingen, the German center of medical technology. The product range includes tweezers, scissors, pliers, nail and foot care instruments, knives and cutters, scalpel blades, files as well as instruments for dental & dental technology, animal care, cosmetics, gastronomy and precision tools. Many products such as tweezers and scissors are hand-ground and refined in Tuttlingen; the instruments are sterilizable, disinfectable and made of rust-free, partially hardened stainless steel. Surfaces are matt-brushed, sandblasted, PVD-coated or gold-plated; cutting edges are milled with high precision. In addition to the catalog range, the company offers custom-made products and new developments and sells via an online shop with no minimum order quantity to commercial and private customers.
