Five team members standing in office environment, discussing something.

We are convinced that more sustainable dialysis treatment is possible. With our expertise and many years of experience, we can make a significant contribution.

For more than 60 years, dialysis therapy, or the "artificial kidney", has made it possible to sur(vive) with a diagnosis of kidney failure. However, there is now an urgent need to rethink renal replacement therapy as the number of patients diagnosed with kidney failure is increasing worldwide. The population is ageing in developed countries, while access to dialysis is improving in emerging markets. Better prevention, advances in xenotransplantation and the miniaturisation of artificial kidneys should further reduce the need for conventional dialysis in the future.

For the foreseeable future, the forms of dialysis treatment established today will continue to be urgently needed. Today's standard therapy is very resource-intensive. Drinking water is becoming increasingly scarce. Electricity, especially from fossil sources, is becoming more expensive and the negative impact on the environment is very high.

The (dialysis) world needs change. Change for the better and in harmony with the systems: Medical progress, ecology, economy and social justice must not be opposites.

"The next few years will change the world and therefore also the world of dialysis. Everyone can decide whether they want to watch or create. We have decided to shape things and move towards green dialysis. That's why we founded GreenTec Dialysis."

We support centres on their way to "green dialysis".

A dialysis treatment in Germany consumes an average of 350 litres of valuable drinking water and over 10 kWh of electricity¹. Dialysis patients usually require three treatments per week. Internationally, consumption is sometimes much higher. We support dialysis operators in reducing resource consumption and thus reducing their carbon footprint. As a smart dialysis centre, your facility will be more sustainable and economically future-proof.

We are facing up to social challenges, especially in developing countries.

In developing countries and countries with inadequate medical care, kidney patients often have no access to renal replacement therapy. This is a death sentence. In addition to economic or logistical challenges, the necessary resources such as water and electricity must be available in sufficient quantity and quality. Our aim is to use efficient and technical processes to make dialysis more affordable and give more people in these countries access to vital treatment.

We also live our conviction on a small scale:

GreenTec Dialysis works in a co-working environment with minimal space. We share meeting rooms and communal areas with other companies. This saves resources and is also fun.
We reduce our business trips by getting to know you via video call, presenting our ideas and answering your questions. We are then optimally prepared for a visit to you and are happy to come by train or our modern fleet of electric cars.
We always work digitally. We don't have a printer, so you won't find any brochures at GreenTec Dialysis. What exactly was stationery again?
