Anaesthesia and respiratory device distributors in Belgium: 19 licensed establishments
The Bastion Hale Distributor Index lists 19 establishments in Belgium whose registry records include anaesthesia and respiratory: 12 with a channel role (importer, distributor, wholesaler or authorised representative), 0 registration holders without a channel role, and 7 registered as manufacturer or exporter only, out of 690 medical device establishments in Belgium overall. The records come from EUDAMED, web, US FDA (openFDA) and Health Canada, last seen on 23 October 2026.
Anaesthesia and respiratory covers ventilators, anaesthesia machines, airway consumables, oxygen therapy and sleep devices. Capital equipment and consumables often travel through the same distributor, which makes service capability a buying factor. Home respiratory care adds a non-hospital channel in several markets.
By role
| Role | Establishments | Share | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Importer | 12 | 63% | Named as importer in a registry: EUDAMED importer, FDA initial importer, or a Gulf import licence. |
| Authorised representative | 7 | 37% | Represents a foreign manufacturer towards the regulator (EU authorised representative and similar). |
| Registration holder | 2 | 11% | Holds device licences or registrations in its own name (Health Canada MDALL licence holder). |
| Manufacturer | 7 | 37% | Registered as a manufacturer with an address in this market, including foreign registrations. |
| Exporter | 3 | 16% | Registered with the US FDA as an exporter of devices made for export. |
An establishment can hold several roles, so the shares add to more than 100%.
Who holds the registration in Belgium
In the EU and EEA the manufacturer, or its EU authorised representative for manufacturers based outside the EU, registers in EUDAMED and holds the CE marking file. Importers and distributors register separately as economic operators and never own the registration, which is why EU channel changes are easier than elsewhere.
