R82 has since 2011 been a part of Etac – one of the world’s leading developers and providers of ergonomic assistive devices and patient handling equipment, with product brands such as R82, Convaid, Molift, Immedia, Star and Etac.

In line with our global strategy of making it easier for customers to recognise and interact with us, we are rebranding our company to Etac. As Etac we still provide our highly reputable paediatric product brands R82 and Convaid.

Please note that Etac’s other product brands (Molift, Immedia, Star and Etac) continue to be managed by our local partners. The rebranding will not change our distribution.
