Uniplex, a Sheffield-based provider of surgical instruments, has secured its first order from Japan, Business Quarter reported on 7 September.
The deal was signed with Muranaka Medical and came after the British firm joined a trade mission to Japan led by national health technology business support organisation Medilink and the Department for International Trade.
The order is for the firm’s medical tuning forks, and the market for such devices in Japan is twice that of the UK.
