We are macu4!
At macu4, we design new concepts that rethink supply paths and make them more efficient. We focus on people with missing or limited grasping function of the hand. For these people, we are radically improving the range of possibilities in terms of physical activities and the customer journey – an aspect becoming frequently more relevant.
These are the founders of macu4
What we love about our work is the smiles on the faces of people who use our products. We are fascinated by the greetings and videos we receive. At the same time, we are gripped by the idea of making a difference and contributing to the health sector.
