What algol trehab does
Algol Trehab Oy is a Finland-based distributor and service provider of assistive devices, headquartered in Espoo with regional offices in Tampere and Oulu. The company supplies mobility aids (wheelchairs, rollators, stairlifts), positioning and seating products, children's assistive devices, bathroom and WC safety equipment, lifting and transferring systems, care beds, mattresses and other rehabilitation equipment, alongside kinesthetic aids. It represents over 40 international manufacturers including R82, Ascendor, Etac/Molift, Permobil, Guldmann, Liko/Linet, Stannah and Handicare, with most principal relationships dating back to the early 1980s.
Algol Trehab operates a nationwide service network comprising three owned service centres, mobile service vehicles stocked with common spare parts, and a subcontractor network that enables preventive maintenance, scheduled servicing, repairs and on-site technical support across all of Finland. Service personnel are trained and certified by the represented manufacturers, allowing multi-brand servicing that goes beyond the company's own represented portfolio. The product range expanded materially in 2025 with the acquisition of Suomen Terveysmaailma, adding electrically adjustable care beds and specialised mattresses.
The business serves three customer groups: Finnish public-sector wellbeing services counties (sote), private care providers and nursing homes, and individual consumers. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales, rental and subscription arrangements, and recurring maintenance and professional service contracts. Algol Trehab is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Algol Group, a Finnish family-owned conglomerate controlled by the Bargum family with 130+ years of history and consolidated net sales of EUR 198M in 2025. The company holds ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and 27001 certifications at the Group level and is a member of Sailab MedTech Finland.
