Mefina Medical

What Mefina Medical does

Mefina Medical GmbH & Co. KG is a German owner-managed Mittelstand company operating as a manufacturer, specialist distributor, and service provider for emergency medical services (EMS), intensive care medicine, and medical simulation. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Erkrath, Germany, the company sells exclusively to commercial and institutional customers (B2B), with a branch office in Vienna and a Swiss authorized representative (AMBU-Tech AG) covering the DACH region.

The company's product portfolio rests on two pillars. The first is five proprietary EMS brands — EMS-Click (patient restraint harness), EMS-Equip (device mounts with 20,000+ units sold over 15+ years), EMS-Vac (vacuum mattresses), EMS-Rail (rail mounting systems), and EMS-Special (intensive transport equipment including the proprietary ITE 1 intensive care transport unit built on Stryker Power-PRO platforms) — all manufactured in Germany and certified to DIN EN 1789 crash-safety standards. The second is the medSim medical-simulation division, offering over 180 products through exclusive German distribution rights for Gaumard Scientific (since 2012), Surgical Science / Simbionix (since 2015), Skillqube, Accurate, Simulation Collective, Nordic Simulators, and TriCAT (VR). Distributed complementary products include WEINMANN ACCUVAC suction, Stollenwerk CPS/CPC stretchers, B. Braun Perfusor/Infusomat pumps, Masimo diagnostics, Philips IntelliVue X3 monitors, and Gloor oxygen regulation.

Mefina's business model combines one-time product sales, recurring technical services (medTec and SimTec certified under DIN EN ISO 13485 and 9001), scheduled training through the Mefina-Akademie (including §11 MPBetreibV certification), custom engineering projects for institutional buyers, and a digital service layer via the Mefina Service App (iOS/Android). Distribution is a direct enterprise field-sales model with dedicated Vertriebsleiter for EMS and medSim divisions, supported by trade show presence at RETTmobil and the DRK-Rettungsdienstsymposium, a multilingual website in seven languages for export sales, and prequalification status (AVPQ) that enables public-sector procurement. EN 9100 aerospace certification and a focus on military, air rescue, and special-forces customers extend the addressable market beyond traditional EMS and hospital buyers.
