Working at BD Japan

About us

BD-Japan is the Japanese subsidiary of BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company), a global medtech leader supporting healthcare around the world. Since its establishment in 1971, we have been providing essential products and services for medical settings. At our Fukushima plant, we manufacture prefilled syringes based on Japan’s strict quality standards and deliver them reliably both domestically and internationally.

Following BD’s acquisition of C.R. Bard, Medicon Inc. became part of the BD Group in Japan. In 2024, we further expanded our portfolio by acquiring the Critical Care business from Edwards Lifesciences, enabling us to meet a broader range of healthcare needs.

Leveraging our innovative technologies and global network, we are committed to fulfilling our purpose: Advancing the world of health™. Working at BD offers a career that supports the future of healthcare and contributes to patients and healthcare professionals worldwide.
