What ProReva does

ProReva is a Netherlands-based medical supply manufacturer that produces custom orthopedic aids including arch supports, elastic stockings, and redression helmets, and operates in the prosthetics and orthotics market under the ForMotion Orthopedie brand. Founded in 1974 and headquartered in Zwolle with 51–100 employees, the company designs and individually manufactures prosthetic limbs (Prothesen) and orthotic devices (Orthesen) tailored to each patient's measurements, condition, and movement requirements. Its portfolio also encompasses pediatric orthopedics (including redression helmets), medical compression stockings, mammacare solutions for breast cancer patients, and custom-made orthopedic insoles (Steunzolen). Prosthetic and orthotic devices are produced per patient to specification, leveraging the underlying product technology and R&D platform of the Össur group, a global orthopedics company under which ForMotion operates.

The company's revenue is generated primarily through one-time sales of custom-fitted devices, with pricing quoted per patient based on device complexity, materials, and clinical specifications; a meaningful portion of revenue is reimbursed through Dutch health insurance. Go-to-market is sales-led and physical: patients are served through a growing network of ForMotion Orthopedie locations across the Netherlands — including Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Groningen, and Maastricht — supported by referrals from healthcare professionals. The company does not sell through e-commerce; each transaction requires in-person consultation, measurement, fitting, and follow-up. Customer segments are predominantly individual patients (prosthetic patients, orthotic patients) with secondary specialty segments in pediatric orthopedics and mammacare. The business model is best characterized as a regional clinical manufacturing and care provider embedded within the broader Össur commercial footprint.
