Company History
Diemme is founded
Having acquired decades of experience in the sector, Guido Santus leaves one of his previous companies, acquiring its medical branch with the aim of embarking on a new business venture. This marks the start of a long path of growth and success for Diemme (DIEMME Dispositivi Medici s.r.l.). The acquisition of Pennine Healthcare is a first key step towards securing major products and brands in the area of disposable medical devices, the company subsequently establishing itself as a household name among professionals in the Italian public and private sector healthcare market.

Innovation in Normothermia for intensive care patients
The new "DMWARM” method, conceived and developed in Italy to maintain the regular body temperature of intensive care patients throughout the procedure (warming process from pre-anaesthesia to reawakening), enabled us to get familiar with the market dedicated to anaesthesia and recovery and, following this experience, to carry out research into increasingly cutting-edge products in the area of normothermia.
