Pedicraft

What Pedicraft does

Pedicraft is a privately held US manufacturer of pediatric medical equipment, founded in 1966 in Jacksonville, Florida by Dr. Richard Skinner. The company specializes exclusively in pediatric hospital and homecare products, including the Pedi-Crib hospital crib, Neonatal and Infant Cribs, Stay Safe Beds, Canopy Beds, Bassinets, Pedi-Board IV Armboards, the Rover Pediatric Stretcher Crib, and Reflux Wedges. All products are manufactured entirely in the United States at a single consolidated facility on Saint Augustine Road in Jacksonville, using Sure-Chek healthcare vinyl, steel and aluminum frames, and flame-retardant materials compliant with Federal Flammability Standard 16 CFR 1633 and pediatric safety spacing requirements (gap between vertical tubes under 2 3/8 inches).

The company's revenue model is based on one-time hardware sales through three channels: direct hospital purchase orders (placed via phone, fax, or email), a nationwide network of authorized DME dealers including National Seating & Mobility and Numotion, and local medical supply distributors. Pedicraft offers instant credit approval for qualified DME dealers and accepts VISA, MasterCard, and American Express. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The primary customer segments are hospital pediatric and newborn departments, homecare families with special needs children (served through DME dealers), and a secondary segment of daycare centers and church nurseries using the Infant Crib line.

Pedicraft has operated continuously for over 58 years with no documented institutional investment, acquisitions, or leadership transitions beyond the founder. The most recent documented product launch was the Rover Pediatric Stretcher Crib in 2000, with incremental enhancements such as a height-adjustable option added to the Stay Safe Bed. The business remains focused on safety-compliant pediatric beds and accessories, with no indication of expansion into digital health, connected devices, or adjacent product categories.
