The MBL history

 

The MBL Group is a family-owned company established in Denmark in 1988 by Ingelise and Mogens Lauritsen. Mogens was working as a managing engineer for a large bus company yet with a significant entrepreneurial drive.

 

When he, on a business trip to Finland, came across a special rubber material which could be used for puncture proof tyres, he decided to bring some samples back to Denmark. Ingelise, who at that time worked as a nurse and having seen the troubles wheelchair users can get into with a flat tyre, said that “this is a product which can really make a difference for wheelchair users”. And so, the idea and wish to improve on wheelchair user’s life was the beginning of MBL

Today, the MBL is a leading supplier of wheelchair components and customer specified mobility solutions for the aged care and rehabilitation segments. We employ more than 1,400 employees and occupy more than 60.000 sqm of production facilities in Poland and China.

In MBL we stress the importance of creating close partnerships with our customers where flexibility and involvement are key words. This approach allows us to find the best and most profitable solution in order to satisfy the needs of our customers.
