SonoRef Healthcare
THE TRANSDUCER REFURBISHMENT MANUFACTURER
A Timeline of Growth, Precision, and Quality
Our Journey
The Foundation
SonoRef's journey began in 2006 with the founding of Lebenswert UB GmbH as a consulting company. From the very beginning, the focus was on process excellence, quality systems, and technical consulting within regulated environments.
This foundation later became the backbone for SonoRef's quality-driven manufacturing mindset.
Entering Ultrasound Transducer Refurbishment
Driven by increasing market demand for reliable, high-quality ultrasound transducer repair, the company took a decisive step forward. In 2017, SonoRef transformed from consulting into a specialized ultrasound transducer refurbishment manufacturer.
- First dedicated repair facility: 20 m²
- Clear focus on quality over volume
- Development of proprietary refurbishment processes
This marked the birth of SonoRef as THE TRANSDUCER REFURBISHMENT MANUFACTURER.
Scaling with Structure
Within just two years, demand and trust from the market led to rapid expansion.
- Facility growth to 300 m²
- Introduction of structured workflows and testing environments
- Expansion of refurbishment capabilities across multiple probe technologies
SonoRef began to scale — without compromising quality.
Industrialization of Quality
As international demand increased, SonoRef invested heavily in infrastructure, laboratories, and process stability.
- Expansion to 1,000 m² of workspace and laboratories
- Implementation of advanced testing and validation procedures
- Continuous optimization of refurbishment techniques
- Achievement and maintenance of ISO 13485 certification
This phase established SonoRef as a trusted industrial refurbishment partner for clinics, hospitals, and distributors worldwide.
SonoRef 2.0
In 2024, SonoRef entered its next strategic chapter: SonoRef 2.0.
- New state-of-the-art facility with 1,600 m²
