Sialkot, a city in Punjab, Pakistan, is one of the world’s largest centres for making surgical and dental instruments. Many of the reusable steel instruments used in hospitals worldwide are forged, ground and polished there. Every year, Sialkot companies travel to MEDICA to meet buyers in person.
A long tradition
Sialkot’s instrument industry began more than a century ago, repairing and then making instruments for hospitals. Skills have passed down through families of craftsmen. Today the city has hundreds of instrument makers, from small workshops to large exporters with their own clean rooms and sterile packing.
What Sialkot is known for
- General surgery instruments: scissors, forceps, needle holders, retractors
- Dental and orthodontic instruments
