ATOM MEDICAL
A Legacy of Care, Innovation, and Enduring Commitment

ATOM MEDICAL is a distinguished Japanese company that specializes in the innovation and production of medical equipment dedicated to neonatal care. Pioneering the modern incubator in Japan, the company has been a trailblazer in advancing neonatal care since its establishment in 1948.

The genesis of ATOM MEDICAL was a response to a request articulated by Japanese medical professionals for high-quality, domestically manufactured incubators. Since then, ATOM MEDICAL’s commitment to providing top-tier equipment for neonatal care has remained unwavering. Currently, the company’s focus goes beyond incubators to include services for obstetric and gynecological (OBGY) needs, creating a holistic approach to neonatal care. Despite Japan’s remarkable achievement of the lowest mortality rate in the World, ATOM MEDICAL is confronted with the formidable challenge of reducing the disabilities in infants born. Besides refining its product portfolio, the company strategically enhances service methodologies to ensure the survival and well-being of newborns with disabilities.



“Through our product’s continual enhancement, we relentlessly pursue excellence in services and technology, striving for the well-being of every neonate,” says Mr. Ichiro Matsubara, CEO and president of ATOM MEDICAL.

The firm’s commitment extends beyond product development; it encompasses the provision of integrated services tailored to meet the specific requirements of neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). ATOM MEDICAL also facilitates communication among healthcare professionals, encouraging national and international collaboration. This proactive approach supports academic endeavors and strategically bridges market gaps.

Best-in-class Products for Every Infant

ATOM MEDICAL provides a sophisticated range of neonatal medical equipment, with a special emphasis on its advanced infant incubators. Its premium model, low internal noise level, quiet glide sides, unique humidity system, the external accessibility of the X-Ray port, and a design that prioritizes sanitary conditions for comprehensive cleaning.

The product range extends with the Incu i models, which are engineered to provide features like humidity control and a built-in weight monitor. These models cater to standard and cost-effective neonatal care needs.

The company’s portfolio also features versatile, multi-functional open incubators—the Infa Warmer i and the Sunflower Warmer. These units are adept at transitioning from resuscitation in the delivery room to ongoing care in the NICU, with features like a rotary damper and baby guard. For Dual Incu i, Incu i and Infa Warmer i, the individual UPS option named Powar Pack i (Litium- Ion Battery made), is available for internal transportation like from a delivery room to a NICU so that an infant can stay the same bed.

Precision in diagnostics is another cornerstone of ATOM MEDICAL’s offerings, as seen in its Atom Phototherapy Analyzer II. This device accurately measures irradiance for phototherapy and illuminance within the NICU, ensuring exact diagnostics.

ATOM MEDICAL’s product range extends to a comprehensive array of NICU and newborn room equipment. The Neo Cot, InfaLite, and Resusci Flow are meticulously designed to fulfill the varied demands of neonatal care environments.

The firm also provides LED phototherapy units for therapeutic purposes, including the BILI-THERAPY Spot Type and the BILI-THERAPY Pad Type which are adaptable to various clinical scenarios, effectively treating neonatal jaundice with targeted LED phototherapy.

From the following recent studies about small babies and development risk with high level of irradiance, these items have a function to preset levels of illumination/ irradiance which also improves workflow for the nurses to just toggle between the levels.

Realizing Commitment through Action

The initiatives that ATOM MEDICAL undertakes go beyond profit-making. This ethos is vividly illustrated in its collaboration with medical experts to develop effective solutions, focusing on innovative neonatal care solutions. A notable example is the development of a specialized laryngoscope that is specifically designed for low-birth-weight infants, particularly those weighing approximately 250 grams or less. This targeted approach fills a crucial gap in pediatric healthcare, demonstrating the firm’s focus on significant medical technology.



ATOM MEDICAL has proactively responded to the critical demand for temperature-regulating equipment in regions with alarmingly high infant mortality rates, like Sierra Leone for contribution to the global health challenges. As the firm has put the emphasis on developing the item with deep consideration where it is used, this temperature-regulating equipment can be operated in the absence of electricity.

These initiatives are more than just business ventures; they represent ATOM MEDICAL’s dedication to tackling health disparities. The firm reallocates profits from various business sectors to fuel these humanitarian efforts, setting it apart from its industry peers.

The company’s agility and unwavering commitment were further demonstrated during a critical incident involving a quintuplet birth in Kagoshima Prefecture in 1976. Faced with an unexpected shortage of incubators in the local hospital, ATOM MEDICAL swiftly provided two additional units. The prompt response not only solidified its strong ties with healthcare providers but also highlighted its readiness to extend immediate support during emergency situations. This act is a clear reflection of the firm’s core philosophy—realizing commitment through action, a principle that guides its every endeavour.

Engineering Solutions with Precision for Optimal Outcomes and Safety

ATOM MEDICAL’s corporate philosophy emphasizes relentless technological innovation. The firm’s operational ethos is rooted in the responsiveness to the dynamic requirements of medical professionals and caregivers, extending assistance to premature infants. The firm’s agility and flexibility enable it to often exceed traditional service expectations to cater to the unique requirements of newborns. Safety and security are paramount in ATOM MEDICAL’s product development. “Our incubators are not only user-friendly but engineered to function flawlessly in emergency situations to ensure optimal outcomes,” adds Mr. Ichiro.



Understanding the realities of shift rotations among nurses and physicians, ATOM MEDICAL’s research and development (R&D) team has designed its incubators to support the safety and security needs of both newborns and medical staff. This attests to the firm’s overarching goal to instill confidence in its product’s reliability, ensuring optimal outcomes in critical healthcare situations.

Fostering Enduring Connections

ATOM MEDICAL cultivates lasting relationships with specialists who are genuinely dedicated to infant well-being. When interacting with these individuals, the firm promotes active listening and sincerity in its engagements. Since demands for specific product functions may come from a single user, the firm recognizes the critical impact these may have on neonatal care, prompting it to commercialize them. This user-centric approach is likely perceived by its clientele as a sign of sincerity and a genuine concern for the well-being of newborns.

Driven by the philosophy “to save a tiny baby’s life,” ATOM MEDICAL embraces preserving lives as an everlasting mission. The firm aspires to create a world where every incubator fosters life with the utmost care, adapting continuously to advancements in medical technology.
