The History of The ROHO Group

ROHO, Inc. was incorporated in 1973 by Robert H. Graebe. He began his career as an electrical engineer, but while working on a project for a hospital, he became concerned about a means to heal ischemic ulcers or pressures sores, as they are commonly called. Through intense research and development, Mr. Graebe invented ROHO DRY FLOATATION technology, named such because ROHO medical cushions and mattresses mimic the properties of water, in a dry, air-fluid environment. This technology has been proven in countless clinical studies to assist in effectively healing as well as preventing pressure sores.

While originally organized into three separate companies, in March 2001 the Boards of Directors of ROHO, Inc., ROHO International, and CROWN THERAPEUTICS, Inc. announced a new corporate structure, The ROHO Group, which provided a more effective approach to global business. This new structure allowed for greater synergy and efficiencies throughout all functions of the three organizations by consolidating important support departments such as marketing, training, and education, and corporate planning. Under The ROHO Group, the sales, marketing, and product development functions have been focused upon the three distinct market segments of medical seating, support surfaces, and consumer products (non-medical applications).

In 1997, ROHO, Inc. entered the consumer marketplace with the AIRHAWK Motorcycle Cushion, which also uses ROHO DRY FLOATATION technology to provide rider comfort and enhance blood flow. And in 1998, the Company introduced the AIRHAWK truck cushion for use in long-haul transportation and other heavy equipment addressing both the need for improved comfort as well as reduction of lower back pain. Most recently, the Company has developed products for office chairs in both OEM and overlay configurations and entered both the aviation and agricultural markets.

Since its founding nearly 35 years ago, the Company has relied upon superior product technology, dedicated and passionate employees, target marketing programs and formal customer training to improve market share and ensure excellence in all activities, products and services.

ROHO carries a full line of wheelchair seat cushions, medical mattresses, wheelchair backs, and pressure mapping systems. We also create custom products to for specific needs.
