Rollz International B.V. is a Dutch manufacturer of mobility aids, known for designing rollators, transport chairs and rollator-wheelchair hybrids, that combine functionality and aesthetics. Founded in 2010 and based in Delft, the company is best known for the Rollz Motion, a rollator that transforms into a wheelchair.
History
Rollz International was established in 2010 with the goal of developing modern mobility solutions for people with physical impairments. It gained recognition for its innovative designs that integrate multiple mobility functions into single devices.
In 2020, Rollz launched a UK-based operation, Rollz Mobility UK, after ending its exclusive distribution agreement with Norwegian company Topro. This marked a strategic shift to expand its direct presence in the UK market.[1]
Products
Rollz is known for designing high-end rollators and mobility devices. Its flagship product, the Rollz Motion, is a hybrid rollator and transport wheelchair that allows users to switch between walking and riding modes.
The product has been noted in personal health blogs for its design-conscious approach. Health and lifestyle writer Ardra Shephard noted the importance of aesthetically pleasing assistive devices in her article, "Friends Don’t Let Friends Buy Ugly Mobility Aid" and described Rollz as offering products that challenge the stigma around mobility aids.[2]
Recognition
Rollz International has received several industry accolades. In 2024, the company was awarded the "Best International Mobility Aid Manufacturer" at the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA) Awards.[3]
It was also recognized by Global Health & Pharma (GHP) in its Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Awards.[4]
Market Presence
Rollz operates globally, with a presence across Europe, North America, and other markets. In 2020, the company strengthened its UK operations to directly supply mobility retailers and customers.[5]
