Other medical design
We’ve worked on handhelds, eye scanners and high-low beds. We’re always on for the challenge to look beyond current categories in healthcare. We’d love to hear what great medical product you are thinking of!
Medical equipment design experts
We’ve worked on healthcare product design for hospitals, healthcare institutions and emergency services. Whether you see a market opportunity or already have a tested technology – we‘ll help you realise your idea. We talk with patients, doctors and other personnel. We observe them extensively. These research sessions often provide deep insight in what is really needed.
How it looks, how it works
We believe that great functionality and aesthetics go hand in hand. With early prototypes we check the functionality and design with patients, professionals and your organisation. Through these tests, we are able to improve the conceptual design in an early phase.
