What do we stand for?
Movement – Independence – Safety – Quality of life
As a rollator manufacturer, we at Tukimet Oy are committed to ensuring that everyone is able to move safely – because movement is one of the most important basic elements of life.
What does it mean for people to be able to move safely and independently while increasing their quality of life?
For thousands of years, safe movement has been essential to survival – while unsafe movement led to great danger and even death.
In other words, safe movement means life: having self-determined control over oneself. Life also means interacting with other people in society – going into town together and being an important part of the family and of society.
It means mastering challenges and limitations in movement on your own, independently and with quality of life – and so living a happy, vital life into old age, enjoying time with friends and family.
