Careium

Careium

Careium is a market leader within Northern Europe of technology-enabled care solutions, with a sole focus on providing care solutions to increase quality of life for seniors. The company provides elderly persons with several alarms, detectors and sensors connected to alarm centres, which enables users to live independently and safely at home for a longer period.

Sustainability information

Careium has a strong position in Northern Europe, but there are some large competitors that could exploit this market, which could eventually hurt Careium’s market share. The importance in delivering reliable products is crucial, since product failure could result in devastating consequences for the end-user, which in turn could have legal consequences for Carieum and hurt demand for its solutions.
