Urgoform was established in 2019 to address an apparent need for advanced product application in Assistive Technology.

We adopt a clinical results approach as opposed to product-centricity, engendering better collaboration with client’s therapists; and driving the best equipment outcomes. Our advanced product application in seating includes close interaction with manufacturers, thus providing valuable market feedback, resulting in improvements for all.
