Permobil founder Dr. Per Uddén believed that helping individuals achieve the greatest level of independence is a basic human right and, for over 50 years, that has been the driving force behind our innovative power wheelchairs. As a doctor working in Sweden, Per met polio patients who were confined indoors and he was passionate about finding a solution to help them. As a result, he created some of the first power wheelchairs! Today, Permobil wheelchairs are highly customizable to meet an individual’s needs, and offer power functions, accessories, and connectivity to help end users live life to the fullest.

In the late 1990s, after decades of making custom bike frames and golf shafts from titanium, we asked ourselves: what if we could apply our knowledge of materials science and customization to wheelchairs? Would a frame built for one specific person perform better? Would it improve their quality of life? As it turns out, the answer is yes – and today we call this process TiFit. For over 20 years, the team at TiLite has been making manual wheelchairs made of aluminium or titanium that are engineered to be strong, light, and fully customized to match the shape and needs of each end user.

PDG Mobility serves customers across the globe. Our comprehensive selection of unique chairs and our ability to customize any product facilitates a perfect fit every time, no matter how basic or complex the requirements are. More than 100,000 chairs have rolled off our production line since the first Eclipse was built 25 years ago. Our designs continue to evolve, but at their core they will always focus on adaptability, durability, and dependability. We stand behind our chairs with a full life-time warranty on frames and our exclusive thank-goodness-it-fits guarantee. All PDG chairs are built in Canada.

For 50 years, ROHO has dedicated its efforts to the research, engineering, and manufacturing of air-cell based cushions with a patented design called DRY FLOATATION® technology. It mimics the properties of water and ensures an individual’s body is immersed and enveloped to give outstanding pressure distribution. ROHO is the world-renowned leader in skin protection and positioning product solutions, and there are currently over one million cushions in use in over 70 countries. Pretty amazing when you consider ROHO started with an electrical engineer making just a few cushions each day to support rehab patients.
