Direct peers

• Vivisol (Sojadis Group): French home healthcare provider specializing in respiratory therapies (sleep apnea, oxygen, ventilation) and infusion services. Comparable in French home medical equipment rental with reimbursement-driven revenue, though with stronger therapeutic concentration.
• Harmonie Médical Service: One of France's largest independent networks renting and selling home medical equipment (DME) for elderly and disabled customers. Highly comparable as a multi-site French DME retailer with similar mobility, bedroom, and respiratory product mix.
• Stannah Group: UK-headquartered stairlift and home accessibility equipment manufacturer and retailer with French operations. Directly comparable in mobility and home adaptation equipment, and already a Bastide brand partner for stairlifts.
• Distraimed: France-based DME and home-care equipment distributor offering hospital beds, mobility aids, and respiratory equipment to professionals and individuals. Comparable core offering in the same French reimbursement-driven market.

Broad incumbents

• Hillrom (now part of Baxter): Global medical-technology company (acquired by Baxter in 2021) manufacturing hospital beds, lifts, and patient monitoring equipment used in homecare and acute care. Comparable on the medical bed and patient-lift side of Bastide's rental and product catalog.
• Coloplast: Danish global medical-device company with a French subsidiary focused on ostomy, continence, wound, and skin care. Comparable on the continence consumables side of Bastide's portfolio, but with a much broader international footprint.
• Linde Healthcare (AGA Medical / Linde Homecare France): Subsidiary of Linde plc providing home respiratory therapies (oxygen, CPAP, nebulizers) and home-care services in France. Comparable as a French home medical equipment operator, but with stronger respiratory focus and broader healthcare portfolio under Linde.
• Convatec Group: UK-listed medical-products company with French operations in advanced wound care, ostomy, continence, and infusion devices. Comparable on consumables and home-care adjacencies, though larger and globally diversified.
• Air Liquide Healthcare: Home healthcare division of Air Liquide providing respiratory, infusion, and chronic disease home therapies in France. Comparable as a French home medical equipment and chronic-care provider, but at much larger scale and with broader therapeutic coverage.

Regional players

• Pharmacie Lafayette (groupement): Large French pharmacy network offering mobility, incontinence, and wellness products to elderly consumers. Comparable in customer base and product categories, though distributed through pharmacy storefronts rather than dedicated DME showrooms.
