> Through organic growth and successful acquisitions, Tyco Healthcare has become the second largest medical device
manufacturer in the world and a global leader in disposable medical products, including wound care, syringes and
incontinence products. Fueling this growth are the aging of the population throughout the world and the increasing
use of disposable medical products everywhere, especially outside the United States, where Tyco Healthcare’s sales
are growing the fastest. In recent years, Tyco Healthcare has diversified its medical product portfolio. The fiscal 2001
acquisition of Mallinckrodt made it a leader in respiratory care products and the largest producer of painkilling
narcotics and analgesics in the United States. Tyco’s Specialty Products unit is a world leader in medical and industrial
tapes and plastic garment hangers, and is the largest U.S. producer of plastic trash bags with its Ruffies®brand.
