To access information on the ARTG visit When buying a medical device it is advisable to only choose a medical device that is recommended by a healthcare professional and has been included on the ARTG. You can ask the supplier for the ARTG number for the device you wish to purchase and search the ARTG for the entry. Medical devices that are approved for use in Australia have been entered into a national database called the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is maintained by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). Many of the items on the Assistive Technology Australia website are categorised as a Medical Device. Independence Australia stock a wide range of wound care products including compression aids. We research our products to make sure they meet our promise of the highest efficacy. We offer the highest quality medical hosiery and socks.

To find out if a product meets Australian Standards ask the supplier to show you the certificate. Products that meet Australian or international standards will have written certification. Standards may relate to materials, manufacturing and installation. Some assistive technology needs to meet Australian or other standards.
