Bernafon AG Information

At Bernafon, we make advanced hearing aids. We also make it our job to empower the work of hearing care professionals. To help them deliver excellent care, on their terms. Because we know that expertise matters. Professional care is the key that turns extraordinary technology into personal solutions. Solutions that help people with hearing loss live life the way they want to. The Sound Experience Because we recognise how essential expert care is, we focus on putting our high-quality hearing aids in the hands of high-quality hearing care professionals – those who are as committed to the highest standards as we are. And we consistently listen in order to meet their needs and understand their challenges, so they can provide the best experiences and results for each and every one of their clients. That’s what we call The Sound Experience The strength of a hearing care powerhouse Bernafon has been developing hearing aids since 1946, when a telephone company expanded its business to also develop amplification devices. The company was located in Bern, Switzerland, which led to the name Bernafon. By 1987, Bernafon was actually the first to develop a digitally programmable hearing aid – and the first fully digital device came out in 1999. Bernafon was acquired by the Demant Group in 1994. Much of the company remained in Switzerland until 2022, when it then moved to the Demant Headquarters near Copenhagen, Denmark. As part of the Demant Group, with over a century of experience and know-how, Bernafon benefits from one of the world’s strongest hearing healthcare research and development teams, ranging from diagnostics to sound processing. We bring this strong foundation, expertise, and dedication to hearing care professionals – so they can provide an exceptional sound experience.
