Combination agreements

In Sweden there is a tradition between wheelchair manufacturers and accessory suppliers to enter into a so called combination agreement. The reason is that the manufacturers only take responsibility for their products in case original accessories are mounted on the wheelchairs. Exceptions to this can be made if a combination agreement is signed.
Many times it has caused some uncertainty about what to do or not to do to be on the safe side in case an accident should occur.

Decon Wheel has traditionally agreements with several manufacturers. When no agreement is entered into, conflicts of interest can appear. In such situations, a number of various wheelchairs will be tested together with Decon's drive unit/accessory.

MPA has issued instructions to facilitate this situation.
Can no combination agreement between the parties be made, then Decon Wheel will take over the responsibility for the combination by writing a so called product combination agreements. that means that the CE marking of the wheelchair will not change. This possibility is of course surrounded by a number of technical demands that must be met. Everything for the products to maintain their original security.

Decon Wheel has combination agreement with the following manufacturers for various products:

Otto Bock Scandinavia AB
Alu Rehab
Panthera
Invacare
ETAC

Handicare
