More than 100 medical equipment and machinery produced by these companies observe the requirements of the European standards, Mohammad Mousavi noted.
He pointed out that competent domestic companies have attained a high capability of manufacturing medical-related equipment observing the requirements of international standards.
Following a visit by Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi to Indonesia, Iranian companies exported a surgery robot to the Southeast Asian country, he said, adding that Iranian companies can export advanced medical equipment and machinery to other countries as well.
The time of delivery and quality of the product are the main two principles that should be taken into consideration in this field, the deputy industry minister emphasized.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Mousavi pointed to the production of face masks and other medical supplies during the global coronavirus pandemic and noted that the domestic companies managed to meet the demands in this critical condition.
While Western countries had imposed tough sanctions against the country, especially in the field of medicines and medical equipment, the domestic companies managed to manufacture hi-tech medical equipment and machinery, he continued.
Presently, two Iranian companies are producing advanced ventilators (breathing machines), the deputy industry minister stated.
Efforts are ongoing to get a considerable share of the global markets in the field of manufacturing advanced medical equipment, he added.
