Made for Walking

The people behind Trionic.

A small Swedish team with a big footprint. Two of us invented the Veloped at engineering school twenty years ago — and we still build every rollator the same way: hands on, opinionated, and obsessed with where the product can take you.

The team

Three people, one product family.

Stefan Kindberg

Johan's co-inventor and partner, met at KTH. Together they developed and patented the climbing wheel at the heart of the Veloped. Stefan owns manufacturing and production — and through the company's hardest years, kept engineering and relocating the build until it worked. He now works remotely from the French Alps.

How we work

Small team, clear lanes.

Twenty years in, the division of labour is simple and deliberate — one side owns how it's made, the other owns how it reaches you.

Made right

Stefan owns manufacturing and production. The product is assembled in a contracted factory and finished — textile, brakes and grips — in Uppsala, so quality is checked close to home before it ships.

Sold direct

Johan owns design, marketing and sales. We sell directly to the people who use our rollators — so real feedback, reviews and thank-you letters shape what we build next. Every photo we publish is a real user.

"Had I known how much work it would be, I might have chosen something else — but I regret nothing."
— Johan Kuikka, co-founder
Made for Walking

The whole story behind the team.

From a seven-week summer studio to a near-death business crisis and a comeback — read how these three came to build the Veloped.
