A Brief Description Of Our Company

Mercado Medic AB specialises in developing, selling, and servicing specialised chairs designed for individuals with functional disabilities.

Founded in 1971 by Åke G du Rées, who originally developed the REAL chair in the 1960s, Mercado Medic has remained at the forefront of adaptive seating solutions. The REAL 9000 series continues to be our flagship product, delivering reliable and adaptable seating for users worldwide.

In addition to the REAL 9000 range, we also manufacture indoor powerchairs (REAL 6100), stand-supporting chairs (REAL 2000), and clinical seating for X-Ray and Mammography (REAL 8000).

Our company is structured into sales, marketing, customer service, production, design, quality control, purchasing, and management. With recent net revenues around SEK 220 million (£16.3million), Mercado Medic remains a strong leader in the industry.

We design and develop our products in collaboration with the Swedish Handicap Institute (SHI) and healthcare professionals, ensuring that every chair meets the highest standards of functionality, safety, and quality. Production is carried out in-house at our headquarters in Lidingö and our industrial team in Halmstad, where key components are manufactured using state-of-the-art tooling machines.

Since 1971, our commitment has been to provide products that are not only functional and safe but also flexible and of the highest quality. The REAL 9000 system is built around a core set of components that can be configured to meet a wide range of needs. For added convenience, we offer a variety of basic models, making it easier for consumers and engineers to find the right solution. If standard components do not meet specific requirements, we have the expertise and resources to produce customised chairs tailored to individual users.
