Biomed Apparel HTM Launch – Behind the Bolt ⚡

Published: July 26, 2025 • By Andrew Gutierrez, Founder & Veteran

We’re proud to announce the official Biomed Apparel HTM launch — a veteran-owned apparel and coffee brand created to represent the real heroes of healthcare: biomedical technicians, HTM professionals, and support staff who keep hospitals running behind the scenes.

If you’ve ever swapped out a vital sign monitor at 2 a.m. or crawled under a OR bed to troubleshoot a wobbly table top — this brand was built for you.

Biomeds don’t do it for the spotlight. We do it for the safety, the precision, and the people who depend on the machines we maintain.

A Voice for the HTM Field

After years in the biomedical space and as a veteran 68A, I saw a disconnect. The HTM field is critical, yet nearly invisible to the public eye.

So I flipped the switch. I launched Biomed Apparel ⚡ — to give HTM professionals gear that reflects their work, pride, and identity.

Our first feature — a full write-up in 24×7 Magazine — covered the launch of our apparel line and our Biomed Crossword Puzzle Book, both made by and for the people who fix the machines that save lives.

More Than Merch — It’s a Movement

• A portion of proceeds supports healthcare-related causes.
• Our designs are created by techs, for techs.
• We fuel long shifts with our own coffee line.
• We highlight Radiology, Dialysis, Sterile Processing, and other underrecognized departments.

This is more than a brand — it’s a statement. A reminder that real heroes don’t wear capes — they wear scrubs, badges, gloves, and tool belts.

What’s Next for Biomed Apparel ⚡

This is just the beginning. We’re rolling out:

• Department tribute designs
• Faith-based and motivational pieces
• Funny, relatable tees for techs and hospital warriors

Whether you’re fixing defibs or coding a ventilator alarm, wear your pride. Because at Biomed Apparel ⚡, we don’t need the spotlight — we bring our own.
