Mobility Matters: Sourcing Rehab Equipment

Phase 3.

1. Key Categories

  • Wheelchairs: Electric vs. Manual. Carbon fiber lightweight models are trending.
  • Hospital Beds: For home care.
  • Massage Guns: The market is flooded. Prices dropped from $50 to $8.

2. Production Hubs

  • Danyang (Jiangsu): The "Wheelchair Capital".
  • Zhongshan: Also strong for medical hardware.

3. Motors & Batteries

  • For electric wheelchairs, the Controller is key. PG Drives (UK brand) is the standard. If they use a generic Chinese controller, it might be jerky.

Summary

The "Silver Economy" (Elderly care) is the fastest growing sector. Look for products that look like furniture, not hospital equipment.
