The acquisition will combine the companies' strategies approaching advanced assistive mobility solutions

Sunrise Medical announced it has acquired Made for Movement (MfM), a provider of neurorehabilitation therapeutic devices designed to restore and enable movement for individuals with complex mobility needs.

Founded in 1995 and headquartered in Norway, Made for Movement is widely recognized for its clinically validated solutions that serve both children and adults with conditions such as cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries, stroke and more. Its flagship products—including the Innowalk, Innowalk Pro and NF-Walker—support early and intensive therapy through motor-assisted standing and robotic gait training. While traditionally focused on pediatrics, MfM’s recent expansion into adult care will overlap with Sunrise Medical’s user base.

"We are delighted to welcome Made for Movement to the Sunrise Medical family," said Thomas Babacan, president and CEO of Sunrise Medical. "Their unique and strongly positioned product portfolio, clinical focus and presence in key European markets make them an ideal strategic fit. This acquisition extends our reach into the growing neurorehabilitation segment and allows us to address user needs more holistically. We also see exciting opportunities to accelerate Made for Movement’s growth globally by leveraging our international scale and commercial infrastructure."

The company said in a news release the acquisition increases Sunrise Medical’s pediatric therapeutic offerings—which includes the Leckey and Firefly brands—by adding a differentiated product range and a clinically trained salesforce with expertise and institutional relationships. It also enables Sunrise Medical to engage earlier in the user care journey—supporting better outcomes and strengthening connections across the health care ecosystem, including clinicians, hospitals, special schools, rehabilitation centers and valued distribution partners.

"With operations in Germany, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom, Made for Movement’s geographic footprint aligns seamlessly with Sunrise Medical’s existing presence," Sunrise Medical said in a released statement. "Its experienced team and specialized solutions enhance Sunrise Medical’s market position in pediatric therapeutic care and support broader entry into the adult segment. In turn, Sunrise Medical’s global infrastructure, resources and distribution network will help accelerate Made for Movement’s international growth."


"There is strong strategic alignment between Sunrise Medical and Made for Movement," said Birger Tufte Johansen, CEO of Made for Movement. "We share a common mission to improve lives through clinical excellence, innovative design and deep user understanding. This partnership builds on our strengths and broadens our ability to empower individuals with complex needs to move to improve quality of life."
