What Medical Furniture does

FPD Group Limited, trading as Medical Furniture, is a UK-based private limited company founded in 2007 that designs, manufactures, and supplies medical furniture and healthcare equipment. Its product portfolio spans modular pharmacy shelving and drawer systems (X, Y, Z, H, T, S, and R Series), medical trolleys (Medi-Trays, Drug, UDS, MDS, Clinical, Surgical, Dressing, and Ward trolleys including laptop/iPad-supporting variants), hospital and care home beds (Innov8 iQ, Kings Fund, Bradshaw, Inspiration Cot), examination couches and lamps, patient seating including bariatric options, controlled drugs cabinets and medicine cabinets, clinical waste bins compliant with HTM07-01 and HTM83, and a range of pharmacy, laboratory, vaccine, and breast milk refrigeration units conforming to RPSGB temperature guidelines.

The company serves NHS hospitals, GP surgeries, community and hospital pharmacists, care homes, hospices, and veterinary practices across the UK, with international export available for medical trolleys. Distribution combines direct sales (phone and mobile advisors), a dedicated e-commerce storefront at medicalfurniture.co.uk, NHS Supply Chain contract listings for government procurement, and a pharmacy design consultancy service covering space utilisation, process flow optimization, and visualisation imagery for fit-outs.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time sales of physical products with pricing predominantly on-application (POA), supplemented by professional services revenue from pharmacy design and consultancy engagements. The company cites over 40 years of industry experience and offers a five-year warranty on its pharmacy fridge range, with many products UK-designed and manufactured and CE-marked where applicable.
