Hanlim

What Hanlim does

Hanlim Medical Equipment Co., Ltd. (주식회사 한림의료기) is a privately-held Korean manufacturer of hospital furniture, medical carts, beds, and laboratory/mortuary equipment, headquartered in Cheongju, Chungcheongbuk-do, with regional sales offices in Seongnam (Seoul/Gyeonggi) and Daegu (Yeongnam) and an international sales department. The company builds primarily in 304 stainless steel and operates a catalog of nine product categories spanning smart logistics systems, hospital facility equipment, medical beds (ICU, general, pediatric), operating-room appliances, nursing carts, monitor carts, treatment-related equipment, supply-room equipment, and mortuary/dissecting-room equipment — covering the full life cycle from patient admission to post-mortem processing.

Its core technology is rooted in stainless-steel fabrication supplemented by purpose-built subsystems: electronic height adjustment on work tables (500–730 mm, 150 kg capacity), microprocessor-controlled chest freezers reaching −45 °C, Class 100 HEPA-filtered clean benches capturing 99.97% of 0.3 μm particles, and a proprietary High Speed Embalmment System that uses gas fixation to compress conventional three-month body preservation to 7–10 days. Differentiated SKUs such as the Embalmment System and HEPA clean bench target niche mortuary and laboratory workflows where competing general hospital-furniture vendors rarely compete.

Hanlim generates revenue through direct B2B/B2G hardware sales to Korean hospitals and healthcare facilities under a quote-based, project-driven pricing model with no public price list or recurring software component. Distribution is handled through the three regional offices plus the International Sales Department, with marketing executed through annual participation in KIMES (Seoul and Busan) and K-HOSPITAL FAIR exhibitions, supplemented by a downloadable e-catalog and company-introduction video. The company is led by Representative Director Oh Yeon-ho (오연호) and operates with 1–10 employees.
