Broad incumbents

• Össur: Icelandic global prosthetics, braces, and compression manufacturer and distributor; comparable because it both manufactures and channels prosthetic feet, liners, and orthotic supports through professional channels like Ortopro.
• Ottobock: Global German prosthetic and orthotic manufacturer with its own retail/SaaS distribution; a much broader portfolio than Ortopro but directly overlapping on prosthetic components, orthoses, and materials sold to orthotic professionals.
• medi: German medical device manufacturer and distributor specializing in orthopedic braces, compression, and prosthetics; broad incumbent comparable to Ortopro's mix of supports, compression stockings, and orthotic products.
• Enovis (DJO Global): Global orthopedic devices manufacturer and distributor covering bracing, soft goods, and reconstructive products — a broad incumbent with overlapping B2B channels into orthotic and prosthetic professionals across categories where Ortopro competes.
• Thuasne: French orthopedic supports, braces, and compression manufacturer; listed as one of Ortopro's key suppliers but also operates its own distribution reaching orthotists and clinics comparable to Ortopro's catalog scope.
• Bauerfeind: German manufacturer of orthopedic supports and compression stockings (knee, ankle, back, wrist) sold through professional channels; directly comparable to Ortopro's "Støtter og ortoser" range.
• Orliman: Spanish manufacturer of orthopedic supports and braces (including the Orliman Sport line) whose products constitute a significant portion of Ortopro's catalog; comparable as both supplier and potential competitor reaching Norwegian practitioners.
• Blatchford: UK-based manufacturer of advanced prosthetic limbs and components (e.g., Linx, BladeXT) whose products Ortopro distributes in Norway; overlapping product line on high-end prosthetic feet and knee systems with the same professional buyer.

Direct peers

• Streifeneder: German B2B distributor and manufacturer of orthopedic technology, prostheses, orthoses, and workshop materials — selling the same category mix of supports, prosthetic components, lamination materials and tools to orthotists/prosthetists as Ortopro, just in Germany instead of Norway.
• C-Prodirect: UK-based e-commerce distributor of prosthetic and orthotic materials, lamination supplies, and consumables to P&O professionals — directly comparable online B2B catalog model; Ortopro already lists C-Prodirect among its supplier brands.
