A vertically run plant
From raw cotton to a sealed, sterile case
Quirmex began in Puebla as a contract manufacturer and grew into a full producer and distributor of medical devices. We process raw cotton into absorbent cotton, gauze and finished dressings on our own lines, control each lot, and ship export-ready cases — so buyers deal with one accountable manufacturer, not a chain of brokers.
Every product is made to the Mexican Pharmacopoeia and released under an ISO 13485:2016 quality system, with COFEPRIS Good Manufacturing Practices and product health registrations behind it.
