What Promeba does

Promeba (legal entity Productos Metálicos del Bages, S.L.) is a Spanish manufacturer of mechanical and electro-mechanical equipment for urgent and emergency medical transport, founded in 1992 and headquartered in Sallent, Barcelona. The company designs and produces an integrated portfolio across eight product lines: stretcher supports (bancadas), ambulance stretchers (camillas), evacuation chairs, ambulance accessories, emergency supplies, emergency cabinets, a military line, and a funeral line. Core technology centers on certified load-bearing and lifting systems — including the patented PS-250 2-second folding chair, the PA-260 electric track conversion, electro-hydraulic stretcher supports such as the PB-440 and PC-750, and military-spec supports with integrated winches (PB4103M-PA4901) — with products carrying EN1789 5.3 (10G), 20G impact, and CE certifications.

The company operates a hardware-sales revenue model with no publicly disclosed pricing, selling through a combination of direct B2B contact and a network of authorized dealers and distributors in at least eight countries (Bulgaria, Malaysia, Indonesia, Greece, UAE, Australia, UK, Italy). Customer segments are diversified across emergency medical services, ambulance and vehicle OEMs, military vehicle integrators, and funeral/mortuary service providers, with demand generated through trade-show participation (RETTmobil, R.E.A.S.), a multilingual website with downloadable product catalogs, and social media channels. Promeba has historically launched product refreshes on a multi-year cadence, including the 2016 PC-750 electric stretcher, the 2017 PS-250 evacuation chair, and 2024–2025 updates to the funeral and military lines.
