Hermann Bock GmbH

Some 160 employees work on enhancing and optimising nursing care beds, accessories and complete furnishing concepts at bock's site in Verl, Germany.

As a developer and manufacturer, we transform our nursing care bed innovations into reality completely in-house, from the initial idea to regular manufacturing.

We offer a full range of furnishing and interior design services from a single source. Our holistic approach to design takes both the functional and emotional demands of everyday life with nursing care beds into account. In cooperation with our clients and architects, we design spaces that contribute to making residents feel at home, with a warm and stylish ambience, a custom selection of wood finishes and fabrics plus practical functionality.Our products and services go beyond nursing care beds and furnishings for residents' rooms to include interior concepts for staff rooms and offices that make work easier and increase job satisfaction.

We help to give nursing care homes a cosy, homely touch. Our interior concepts are designed around the needs that are associated with ageing and the need for care.

That is why we start working closely with architects, clients, investors and operators of care facilities during the planning phase. We are there to advise you from the very start, no matter whether you are planning to build from scratch or renovate an existing structure.
