We look for specialist MedTech products and services businesses with durable customer relationships, high standards of quality and compliance, attractive cash economics and leaders who care deeply about the future of the company.
Qualeris targets founder-led UK and Ireland businesses across the regulated medtech value chain — from proprietary products and diagnostics to the services that keep them compliant, available and safe throughout their lifecycle.
Proprietary devices, surgical instruments, patient monitoring, mobility, rehabilitation, dental, ophthalmic and specialist clinical equipment.
IVD instruments and reagents, point-of-care testing, pathology and laboratory equipment, sample handling and associated technical support.
Single-use products, procedure packs, wound care, sterilisation, decontamination, cleanroom and contamination-control products.
Value-added distribution of regulated products, implants, devices and consumables, supported by product expertise, training and recurring customer demand.
Clinical engineering, maintenance, calibration, metrology, validation, asset management, decommissioning and equipment compliance services.
Regulatory affairs, quality systems, testing, contract manufacturing, packaging, software, training and post-market support for regulated products.
Qualeris acquires businesses that are structurally defensive, operationally proven and capable of long-term compounding with a minimum of £0.5m EBITDA and 10 team members — not turnarounds, not start-ups, and not businesses dependent on a single customer or contract.
Sector-equivalent accreditations confirming technical authority and creating meaningful barriers to entry for new competitors.
Annual contracted revenue streams providing predictable, visible cashflow, with demonstrably low client churn.
Long-standing relationships with customers who face significant regulatory risk if they switch providers.
Good cash conversion characteristics, low capital intensity and disciplined cost bases.
Owner-managed businesses where the founder is motivated by legacy and a permanent home, not a rushed sale.
Businesses operating in adjacencies where quality can be added and the platform's positioning strengthened over time.
We are selective. We prefer a small number of excellent acquisitions to growth for its own sake.
We are comfortable beginning conversations years before a transaction. Confidentiality, honesty and mutual fit matter more than speed.
