HR HealthCare announced that it has acquired SteriGear, including the Fig Leaf brand of urinary drainage devices and SteriGear’s portfolio of covers and drapes.
The acquisition strengthens HR HealthCare’s ability to provide bladder management solutions across the care continuum, including acute care, post-acute care, long-term care, skilled nursing, and home-based care.
SteriGear is known for the Fig Leaf urinary drainage bag, which is designed to preserve patient dignity by concealing fluid from view through a built-in privacy cover. The company also offers covers and drapes that help protect equipment and support procedural efficiency.
HR HealthCare said SteriGear’s products have already gained adoption in skilled nursing and long-term care settings. Through the acquisition, the company plans to expand the reach of the products and adapt configurations for acute care, health systems, and home-based care.
The deal also brings SteriGear and Fig Leaf together with HR HealthCare’s TruCath products and broader urology platform. The combined portfolio is expected to give channel partners and health systems access to a more complete set of urology and drainage solutions through a single coordinated source.
Under the transition plan, the Fig Leaf brand will remain in the market. The SteriGear brand will transition to HR HealthCare over time through phased updates to marketing, packaging, and labeling.
HR HealthCare said there will be no changes to item numbers, product quality, specifications, or performance. Customers should expect the same clinical effectiveness and reliability from the acquired products.
The SteriGear website is expected to transition to HR HealthCare no later than August 1, 2026. Additional details regarding customer transition and ordering will be communicated directly to customers and partners as part of the integration process.
Support: Miles & Stockbridge served as legal counsel to HR HealthCare. Capital Eleven served as exclusive financial advisor to SteriGear, and Dorsey & Whitney served as legal counsel to SteriGear.
