Anaesthesia and respiratory device distributors in South Korea: 29 licensed establishments
The Bastion Hale Distributor Index lists 29 establishments in South Korea whose registry records include anaesthesia and respiratory: 0 independent distributors (a channel role such as importer, distributor, wholesaler or authorised representative, and no manufacturing of their own), 0 manufacturers' own import or sales entities, 0 regulatory representatives, and 29 manufacturers or exporters, out of 928 medical device establishments in South Korea overall. The records come from US FDA (openFDA), MHRA UK 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 |

| Exporter | 5 | 17% | 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%.
