We contributed to start the company from scratch and have gained expertise and insight into the health industry and products that we would like to exploit. Our approach was was to build a simple model, find real challenge and from there meet the functional requirements. We still produce the EpiShuttle at our premises to make sure we only produce what is needed. We see many new companies stumble and fall committing to too high production volumes in the beginning. In our setup the EpiGuard pay only when the product is being produced. This way they managed to grow controlled, gain experience, test the product in the market and work with distribution. When the order flow stabilizes on a higher level, it is time to move to a more permanent production line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>MedTech projects and ambition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We like complex projects where we can use both the our expertise and machinery, and have developed a method for evaluating the complexity of projects. As we are a A to Z company, we offer design, engineering, prototyping, testing, approval and even small-scale productio. We constantly learn new things that we add to the model and use this for our next client. Mixing new technology with expertise, machinery and craftsmanship we try to do things that previously has not been possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other projects we have done for this market are<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ekergroup.dev07.dekodes.no\/ekerdesign\/Projects\/biomkr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BioMRK<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ekergroup.dev07.dekodes.no\/ekerdesign\/Projects\/somnofy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Somnofy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ekergroup.dev07.dekodes.no\/ekerdesign\/Projects\/easyroller-wheelchair\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Easyroller<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ekergroup.dev07.dekodes.no\/ekerdesign\/Projects\/halodi-eve\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Halodi<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our ambition is to further strengthen our position as supplier of development services for MedTech products.
