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.

  • Trionic Veloped…

    This walker is Suburb! I have had the Veloped for almost two months now, and LOVE IT so much! It climbs Curbs and almost anything. I take it on my walks regularly. Down Hills, up Hills, over tree stumps, Grass, Gravel, Curbs and it has no problems! G…

  • I have found the Trionic Walker excellent…

    I have found the Trionic Walker excellent, as I have numb fingers tips, I am able to collapse the handle down with the clip locks, which has helped in keeping my independence.

    Well done, Lads. I hope you keep going strong with your Walkers.

    I h…

  • Strongly to recommend.…

    Finally, my husband and I can walk on uneven paths. The Veloped is really worth the money. It's a bit difficult to take it with you in the trunk to go to a doctor’s visit, but we have a small walker for that.

    We don't want to be without our Velope…

  • No clattering noises…

    I'm really happy with it, I can go for walks on uneven terrain again without any clattering noises, the pneumatic tyres are great. I would recommend the rollator to anyone.…

  • A life changer!…

    An absolute life changer, it’s brilliant!
    The only downside was the strap which we broke the first time out, but that was not the fault of the walker!!!…

  • I suffer from polyneuropathy, so I have really bad balance and vacillate…

    Sticks don't really help, and it's so uncomfortable that at some point you don't even want to go out anymore. Three months ago, it was clear to me that I would need a rollator if I wanted to enjoy being out in nature again.

    Before buying, I inform…

  • Love the walker, thank you…

    Thank you so very much. The Veloped walker arrived for my son yesterday. The whole experience of ordering, receiving and using this walker has been excellent. The advice we got before ordering was so important and I am grateful to Stefan for his help…

  • Trionic Walker…

    We are delighted with the 12er S Walker. Well designed and beautifully made. The 4 wheels with linked steering give great stability yet have good maneuverability. We originally intended to buy the 14er with even bigger wheels as our drive has some de…

  • Surprising good…

    This holder was ordered at the same time I ordered the Veloped and came already attached to the frame. I haven't actually used it for its intended purpose of housing a walking stick but found it has a double purpose and currently holds my dogs retrac…
