Siemens (Rebranded Signia) is a very well-known German company whose technologies spread into a multitude of industries. In the UK their head office is in Crawley, West Sussex. Of all the hearing aid manufacturers, Siemens is perhaps the only name that is instantly recognisable by almost everyone. They are reputed to be the largest manufacturer of hearing aids worldwide.
They have been producing hearing aids for over 100 years and have always been at the forefront of technical innovation. In 1959 they developed the first Behind-the-Ear hearing aid. This was a welcome change for people who were used to body-worn hearing aids and 19th-century ear trumpets.
Although Siemens are well respected in a range of fields, they do not necessarily dominate the hearing instrument market in terms of hearing aid technology. Over the last 10 years, the Danish and Swiss manufacturers have led the way. Having said that, Siemens hearing instruments are robust and of very high quality.
