Our history

GVB's story begins with the realization that problems such as artifacts, false signals, and stray signals in electroencephalography mostly occur on the electrode side and not on the instrument side.

1994
GVB is founded
Initially, only pastes and gels were sold until contact was established with the Italian company Meditec in Parma, which expanded the product range to include electrodes and connection cables. In 1994, the company GVB was founded and GVB and geliMED merged to form today's GVB-geliMED GmbH.
1994
1999
GVB becomes manufacturer
The sales figures increased very quickly, so that in 1999 the idea arose to start their own production for some products. This project was put into action and together with Francesco Lisi, the former owner of Meditec, and other partners, the company SPES Medica was founded in Genoa.

Expansion of the GVB product range
Some products became the complete range for neurophysiological consumables developed and produced. Today, the distribution portfolio comprises about 1000 products in various designs and configurations. This means that GVB-geliMED has about 7000-8000 items. This year, GVB-geliMED Ltd. was certified according to ISO:13845 for the first time.

GVB expands its office and warehouse space
The company GVB-geliMED grew so that both office and storage space had to be expanded, so the company moved from Negernbötel to Bad Segeberg in 2002. 2 years later, Michael Romin decided to expand and distribute the products internationally.

2007
Foundation of GVB Holding
As the cooperation partners had until then mainly dealt with equipment technology, the sales figures for accessories were relatively low. To change this, GVB and SPES decided to found GVB-SPES Holding GmbH in 2007 in order to intensify the sales of accessories in the international field through their own subsidiaries. Thus, the locations of GVB-SPES GmbH in Spain, England, Poland, Benelux, South Africa, Brazil, France, China, USA etc. were created.

2010
GVB enters the field of intraoperative monitoring
Entering the field of intraoperative monitoring, GVB started in 2010 with the production of stimulation probes as well as the distribution of PMT CORPORATION and NERVEÄNA products. Since then, the portfolio has grown so that GVB can now offer products such as strip electrodes, urethra electrodes, D-wave electrodes, laryngeal electrodes and various stimulation probes. But also in the conventional field, products such as TECH DOT's, conductive conductive pastes, skin preparation pastes, DTL electrodes, gold foil electrodes and much more have been developed.

RoHS guidelines and sustainability
In 2013, GVB as a company adapted to and demonstrated compliance with the RoHS (Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances) regulations, as well as an environmentally conscious orientation of the company towards waste prevention and the use of environmentally friendly packaging.

Office and warehouse extension
Another move took place in 2014, GVB had to expand its premises again and bought a new company building with more than 700 m² of office and storage space.

GVB digitises warehousing
In 2015, the EAN 128 barcode and the UDI code were introduced, as well as electronic (barcode)-based warehouse, packaging and shipping management (chaotic warehouse management). This has reduced the error rate in shipping and packaging to zero. This step into the future, together with the also newly introduced paperless order and transaction processing as well as archiving, has led to better and faster processing of orders and enquiries.
2015
2019
GVB moves into the new premises
A move took place again in 2019. Until then, the office and warehouse had different locations, which have now been merged. Since then, the GVB and all its premises have been located at Ginsterweg 7/7a in Bad Segeberg.
