Our history

Since 1976...

The médipréma company, at the origin the groups company name, was founded in the Touraine area of central France in 1976 at the instigation of a couple of entrepreneurs wishing to develop an industrial activity for the manufacturing of medical equipment.

Although it started by subcontracting the manufacturing of hospital beds for adults, it quickly moved on to neonatal care, with the launch of its first open incubator solution.

Médipréma is rapidly becoming a key player in the world of neonatal care and is at the source of technical solutions now being copied by others today (in particular, the 360° phototherapy cradle that has reduced by over 60% the blood exchange transfusions in newborns with severe hyperbilirubinemia) and proposes solutions that are unique in the world (such as the transport incubator with overhead radiant heating).

 

... to today

Over the course of its history, the company has seized several growth opportunities by acquiring various complementary activities.

In 1992, the company ella legros, a manufacturer of radiology accessories, in particular illuminators, one of the company's flagship products, joined médipréma. The range rapidly expanded and the materials evolved, enabling the brand to gradually take a dominant position on the European market.

The group’s lighting expertise was enhanced in 2007 with the arrival of the gamain business. Gamain offers standardised light to professionals in the medical world (especially dentists) and the luxury and arts industry, who are seeking for a light that is less straining and that enables good colour discrimination.

In 2010, the acquisition of the Belgian company beldico, the European leader in baby bottles, supplemented the group's range of products in the field of neonatal care devices. The skills of médipréma group have thus been extended to the field of plastics processing and sterilisation.

In parallel, the group is being enriched by the buoyant distribution activities of its subsidiary International Medical Products (IMP) in the nursing, adult care and laboratory markets.

“We bring together complementary know-hows to design tomorrow's products.”
