Ribcap Protection

We hear it more and more often from our customers: “I want head protection for my child/partner/client, but it also has to look good.” This recurring statement got us thinking. Because what do you really look for when choosing head protection?   Every situation is different, from daily use for epilepsy or dementia to prevention for balance disorders or during rehabilitation. Ultimately, however, everyone seems to make a personal choice between safety, comfort, design, and medical suitability.   That's why we're curious: What do you consider most important when choosing head protection? 🧠   Vote in the poll and feel free to share your experience or opinion in the comments. 👇🏼 Your input helps us develop products that truly meet people's needs.   #HeadProtection #HealthCare #Poll #Innovation #YourOpinionMatters

Employees' Day in Belgium 💪🏼🤩   Often you only see the end result: a happy customer with a Ribcap that fits perfectly.

Every strategy, campaign, and partnership helps us grow and reach more people who need our products."   Rani ensures that every Ribcap reaches our customers safely, quickly, and with care. She meticulously oversees the entire logistics process, managing everything from inventory control to the final stages of shipping. Her accuracy, solution-oriented approach, and enthusiasm make her an indispensable part of the Ribcap team. If things are running smoothly behind the scenes, you know Rani has taken care of it.   Rani tells us why she loves her job: “I love the challenge of coordinating the details. No two days are the same, and I get to solve problems on the go, which keeps me engaged and motivated."   Thank you, Emma & Rani. 💙   #EmployeeDay #AppreciationPost #TeamRibcap #BusinessGrowth #Marketing #Logistics

🛏️ The origin of the Ribcap Sleep Helmet 🛏️ At Ribcap Protection, we always listen to our customers. We have been asked regularly: "Can I wear my Ribcap helmet at night?" This question came mainly from people who make unconscious movements at night, such as people with epilepsy or Parkinson's disease, or after a brain injury. To better understand this question, we conducted market research. This showed that: 📊 4% of adults and about 20% of children sleepwalk, which can lead to head injuries from falls or wandering. 📊 One in every 26 people will experience epilepsy in their lifetime, with nighttime seizures being common. 📊 Seniors are particularly at risk because they are more likely to become confused or have mobility problems at night. These insights confirmed what our customers had already shared with us: there was a clear need for a protective, comfortable solution for a restful night's sleep. Some customers had tried to wear their everyday Ribcap at night but found that the chin strap and loops caused discomfort and made it difficult to sleep. With their valuable feedback, we developed the Kate sleeping helmet: designed with lightweight, breathable materials, a soft stretch band instead of traditional chin straps, and a flexible, innovative design that adapts to various sleeping positions. 😴 This development is a great example of how we work with our community to create solutions that really make a difference. 💪🏼 👉🏼 Contact us today for more information or collaboration opportunities. Let's work together to help your customers sleep better and feel safer. #Innovation #ProductDevelopment #MarketResearch #HighDemand #SleepHelmet

✨Cooperation with James Payne: a UK B2B partner from Ribcap ✨   James Payne from GEL OVATIONS EUROPE LIMITED tells his story 👇🏼 Founded in 2007 by father and son John and James Payne, specialists in independent living and pressure care. Gel Ovations Europe Ltd is now a dedicated manufacturer and distributor of medical products. With a strong focus on pressure care, Gel Ovations works closely with occupational therapists and healthcare professionals in both the private and public sectors. Their commitment to quality and customer feedback has positioned them as a trusted partner in the industry, ensuring they meet the evolving needs of their customers. Today, Gel Ovations is an international company used by the NHS in the UK and across Europe to prevent pressure injuries for users of all types of medical and mobility aids.   James' perspective on working with Ribcap 👇🏼 The partnership between Ribcap Protection and GEL OVATIONS EUROPE LIMITED goes back 8 years. During this eight-year partnership, we have combined our expertise to enhance our product offerings and streamline solutions for our customers. We help each other grow our businesses by providing honest feedback, trust and support.   We have built up quite an extensive network together - it's more than just selling products - it's networking and having fun at the same time! We have introduced each other to several other B2B customers that we now work with. Nico De Wilde supports us at trade shows in the UK, while I got the chance to go to Belgium for similar events. So we had a joint stand at trade shows a couple of years ago, which was very beneficial for both parties. Together, we were also instrumental in initiating a relationship with the MS Society in the UK. Today, we are very pleased to be a sponsor of that organization.   We are very happy with the logistics, we get immediate notifications when orders are placed. Orders are shipped quickly with no significant problems directly attributable to Brexit, other than the slight cost increases we have recently experienced when ordering through your new system. In addition, the amount of marketing material and additional editorial material is very valuable to us.   #B2B #Partner #cooperation #healthcare #specialneeds #disability
