Gohesa Medical
Engineered to withstand the demanding humidity of Portugal's Mondego River Valley and intense athletic training at the University of Coimbra sports complexes.
As the historic academic capital of Portugal and home to the prestigious University of Coimbra, the city of Coimbra stands as a vital hub for collegiate athletics, rowing along the Mondego River, trail running across the nearby Serra da Lousã, and professional football. However, the geographic position of Coimbra in Central Portugal presents unique atmospheric challenges for sports medicine products. With relative humidity often exceeding 80% during winter mornings and elevated temperatures during summer athletic seasons, standard kinesiology and sports tapes frequently suffer from premature adhesive failure due to sweat accumulation and atmospheric moisture.
For medical clinics, physical therapy centers across Baixa and Celas, and sports equipment distributors supplying the Associação Académica de Coimbra (AAC), sourcing sports tapes with validated hydro-resistant properties is not merely a technical preference—it is a critical requirement for patient rehabilitation outcome and athletic performance.
Distributing medical supplies and sports strapping materials within the Portuguese territory requires strict alignment with national and European Union regulations. All products supplied by Jiangsu Gohesa Medical Supplies Co., Ltd. for the Coimbra market comply fully with the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745), holding CE markings and ISO 13485 manufacturing audits. This ensures seamless customs clearance at Portuguese entry ports (Lisbon and Leixões) and guarantees full compliance for pharmacies and clinical supply chains registered under INFARMED (Autoridade Nacional do Medicamento e Produtos de Saúde).

Answers to common inquiries from Portuguese medical equipment importers, sports clubs, and physical therapy supply managers.
Coimbra's unique geographical profile features high humidity near the River Mondego and varied seasonal rainfall during outdoor athletics. Standard tapes tend to lose adhesion rapidly when exposed to atmospheric moisture or sweat. Gohesa's specialized water-resistant tapes utilize acrylic sine-wave adhesive matrices that lock tightly onto skin tissue while allowing breathability, ensuring tape integrity throughout high-intensity matches and wet-weather training.
Our manufacturing facilities operate under ISO 13485 quality management systems. All sports tapes hold CE certification in compliance with the European Union Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745) and FDA registrations, allowing seamless registration with INFARMED and compliant entry into Portuguese pharmacy supply chains.
Yes! We offer comprehensive OEM/ODM custom solutions. You can select custom logo printing on the tape backing paper, personalized color dyes, custom roll dimensions (e.g., 5cm x 5m, 5cm x 31.5m jumbo rolls), precut strips, and custom retail box designs formatted with Portuguese product labeling.
Standard manufacturing lead time is 15-20 days following artwork confirmation. For shipping, ocean freight to Lisbon or Leixões ports typically requires 28-35 days, while expedited air cargo or express delivery takes 5-7 business days. We assist with full customs documentation for smooth clearance.
