Omobic history

Backed by over 30 years of MBL manufacturing heritage, Omobic brings trusted engineering directly to active wheelchair users. Having powered thousands of wheelchairs globally behind the scenes, we now deliver high-performance, precision-crafted mobility components under our own name.

 

History

Our quality story began in Denmark in 1988, when the Lauritsen family started assembling wheels on a table-tennis table. Driven by hands-on dedication, MBL grew from a family attic into a global leader. Today, operating across three countries and two continents, our 42,000 m² modern facilities produce 45,000 rear wheels annually, delivering uncompromised quality and reliable supply chains to B2B partners worldwide.

Omobic today: redefining active mobility. Your move™

Still proudly family-owned, Omobic operates with a global team of 1,800 skilled professionals. As a specialized subbrand of MBL, we combine advanced manufacturing power with a clear mission: making high-performance, ergonomic wheelchair components accessible worldwide. By bridging uncompromising engineering quality with attainable pricing, we empower active wheelchair users to move forward without limits.

Wheelchair users about Omobic

“I like the Simi pushrim because the sand doesn’t stick to the silicone strip. And they make it easy to climb uphill thanks to good grip”

Sylwia

Wheelchair users about Omobic

”Optimum ZF pushrims are perfect for tetraplegics. Thanks to the inverted heart profile, the user has a large traction drive surface, which greatly facilitates the movement of the wheelchair.”

"I really like these wheel locks. They work very well for me. I recently ordered a new wheelchair, and Lock P wasn’t included in the specifications, so I bought them separately!"

Wheelchair users about Omobic

"On average, my wife and I cover around 1,000 km per season — she on roller skates and me with a handbike add-on. I ride on all kinds of terrain: gravel roads, forest trails, rocky paths and cycle paths. The Challenger wheels work really well with my attachment. They absorb bumps, and the tyres provide good grip on the road. I’ve been using the Challengers for two years and haven’t needed to true them once. They’re strong and reliable."

Wheelchair users about Omobic

"I’ve always preferred titanium handrims over standard ones. They’re lightweight, durable, and quieter when moving your hands along them."

"I like the Bagg-4 wheel bags because they provide better protection during long-distance transport and allow you to carry more wheels at once. When we travel to wheechair rugby tournaments and need to bring spare wheels, they’re a very convenient solution."

Wheelchair users about Omobic

"These brakes I have on my chair for half a year. (…) No maintenance. Over time with other brakes you have to adjust the screws on the brakes, because they get loose. And when they are loose, they stop working, so you have to tighten the screw. That’s not necessary here, because they don’t go loose in the same way as other brakes."
