On the morning of November 7, the strategic cooperation signing ceremony between Nanchang Hua'an Zhonghui Health Technology Co., Ltd. and Boni Medical Technology (Changzhou) Co., Ltd. was held in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, marking a new phase of deep integration between the two parties.
Present at the signing ceremony were Zhang Xianfeng, Director of the Chengdong Industrial Park Management Office; Zhou Mingqi, Deputy General Manager of Hutang Science and Technology Industrial Park Investment Management Company; Chen Hua, Chairman of Nanchang Hua'an Zhonghui Health Technology Co., Ltd.; and Shen Xing, Chairman and Founder of Boni Medical Technology (Changzhou) Co., Ltd.
Against the backdrop of the global wave of technological innovation in the healthcare industry, this strategic cooperation between a high-frequency electrosurgical enterprise and a minimally invasive surgical medical device company has attracted significant attention.
According to Frost & Sullivan data analysis, the scale of China's minimally invasive surgical instruments and consumables market reached RMB 26.79 billion in 2022. It is expected that this market will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.2% in the coming years, reaching RMB 38.91 billion by 2025. Looking further ahead, the market size is projected to expand to RMB 61.77 billion by 2030, with an expected CAGR of 9.7% from 2025 to 2030.
From the perspective of segment development, domestic enterprises in the surgical suture market continue to fill the gaps in mid-to-high-end sutures, forming a complete product line. The suture market features a wide variety and a vast number of SKUs, with the domestic high-end suture market once being a blank space. Barbed sutures were approved by the FDA in 2004, but the first domestic barbed suture was not approved until 2019. In recent years, the approval of domestic barbed sutures and antibacterial sutures has narrowed the gap with foreign companies. We expect this trend to continue, with domestic brands continuously launching more surgical sutures of different materials and structures. In response to competition, foreign companies are accelerating the introduction of new products to the Chinese market, achieving "zero time difference" in product launches between China and abroad, and promoting the localization of suture production in China.
Based on this, leveraging their complementary strengths, the two parties will achieve a powerful "two-way collaboration" by integrating Hua'an Zhonghui's advantages in sales capabilities, user base, channel networks, and service experience with Boni Medical's innovative expertise in minimally invasive surgical medical device technology.

Currently, the domestic medical surgical instrument market is in a period of transformation, with the existing landscape being reshaped. In areas once dominated by foreign companies, such as laparoscopic staplers, ultrasonic scalpels, sutures, and endoscopes, the market share of domestic enterprises is rapidly increasing. At this stage, domestic companies with mature products and stable quality will capture a larger market share. This cooperation represents a deep strategic alliance between the two parties based on the future development of healthcare and will inject new, powerful momentum into the development of the surgical instrument field.
In the future, the two parties will engage in in-depth R&D and integration in areas such as open surgical instruments, minimally invasive surgical instruments, and specialized suture products, jointly building a leading enterprise in surgical instruments, promoting the high-quality development of medical surgical instruments, and ensuring that the fruits of cooperation tangibly benefit a broad range of patients.
