Precision-engineered under ISO 13485 and European MDR guidelines. Every unit is optimized for high-cycle ambulance deployments, harsh Aegean maritime environments, and rapid clinical patient mobilization.
The Greek healthcare framework presents distinct geographical and logistical challenges—from high-density urban transit in Attica and Thessaloniki to island aeromedical evacuations across the Cyclades and Dodecanese archipelagos.
The Greek National Center for Emergency Care (ΕΚΑΒ) operates under extreme duty cycles. Our automatic loading stretchers feature mechanical two-step folding legs with safety interlocks, enabling single-paramedic loading into Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, VW Crafter, and Peugeot Boxer emergency vehicles without risk of spinal strain or vehicle chassis collision.
Inter-island patient transfer in the Aegean requires high resistance to saline corrosion. Engineered with anodized aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum and 304/316 marine-grade stainless hardware, our portable folding stretchers and HDPE spine boards withstand sea-spray, narrow stone stairway extraction in island settlements, and rapid Super Puma helicopter hoist operations.
Tertiary clinical hubs like Evangelismos, Attikon, and private networks (Hygeia, Metropolitan, Interbalkan) demand zero-transfer friction from the ambulance dock to trauma suites and ICUs. Our multi-function hydraulic transfer trolleys integrate central locking systems, 5th-wheel steering guides, and seamless zero-gap radiolucent decks for smooth bed-to-bed lateral sliding.
Greek healthcare procurement mandates uncompromising adherence to European Union directives. Equipment supplied to Hellenic regional health authorities (YPEs) must comply with Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR) Class I, alongside specific DIN EN norms governing patient handling devices in road ambulances.

Accelerated by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (Greece 2.0) and European structural investments, medical device procurement in the Hellenic Republic is undergoing profound modernization.
Under the EU NextGenerationEU funding umbrella, the Greek Ministry of Health has prioritized upgrading legacy hydraulic stretchers to ergonomic, electro-hydraulic assisted transfer systems to reduce paramedic work-related musculoskeletal disorders.
Greek importers strictly require full technical dossier submissions to the National Organization for Medicines (EOF) and the EUDAMED database. Manufacturers must provide verified Declarations of Conformity and authenticated biocompatibility test reports.
Hospitals throughout Greece are reinforcing emergency preparedness with high-capacity cots capable of handling bariatric patients (up to 300 kg) with wider mattress bases, reinforced pivot brackets, and heavy-duty gas struts without adding deadweight.
With over 30 years of specialized manufacturing experience in emergency rescue equipment and clinical patient bed systems, we combine high-volume production efficiency with rigorous European quality assurance.
Our state-of-the-art production hub utilizes automated robotic welding arms, high-precision CNC tube benders, and laser profiling centers. Every stretcher undergoes dynamic static load stress tests, drop impact tests, and multi-cycle mechanical hinge endurance evaluations before export.
Our comprehensive production ecosystem guarantees seamless supply chain execution from raw alloy extrusion to final customs delivery at the Port of Piraeus.
