Lojer Oy is part of the Finnish Lojer Group, a hospital and care furniture manufacturer founded in 1919, and its operating room range is of interest to UAE hospitals planning new theatres or replacing ageing tables and lights. This guide summarises the Lojer operating table line including Scandia and Promerix, the Q-Flow surgical light family, Solido pendants and OpenOR integration, and sets out what to check when buying through the official distributor.
Lojer Group, Sastamala and the Merivaara operating room range
Lojer Group is a Finnish manufacturer of hospital and care furniture. Hospital beds and operating, examination and treatment tables are built at its own factories in Sastamala, Hollola and Kempele. In 2019 Lojer took over Merivaara's hospital bed business, and in June 2022 it acquired Merivaara Oy itself, adding operating tables, surgical lights, OR integration and AV systems and medical pendants.
These operating room products continue under the Merivaara brand, with production in Lahti, Finland, and Merivaara operates in more than 120 countries. For buyers, this means the OR range is a coordinated family: tables, lights, pendants and integration are designed to be specified together. The complete range is available on the Lojer brand page.
Lojer operating tables: Scandia Prime, Grand Promerix and others
The Scandia Prime is a modular electromechanical table for day and short-stay surgery, manufactured by Lojer Oy. According to the manufacturer it has interchangeable sections, a sliding table top with full-length accessory rails, four programmable memory positions plus a zero position, and a motorised Trendelenburg of 30 degrees. Specifications include a safe working load of 250 kg, a total length of 2,070 mm and height adjustment of 595 to 1,005 mm.
For demanding cases, the Grand Promerix is a heavy-duty electric table suitable for bariatric surgery, with a safe working load of 275 kg, a table top of 2,100 × 540 mm and a slim base with improved C-arm access. The range also includes the Smarter Practico, the hydraulic Rapido for day surgery and the manual Practico. Matching the table to the case mix, imaging needs and patient weight range is the key selection task.
Q-Flow surgical lights and Solido pendants
The Q-Flow surgical lights are an LED family designed for low air turbulence, available in Fluent, Vision and Intelligent versions. Published data include turbulence intensity of 15.9 percent per DIN 1946 for 700 mm heads, colour rendering Ra 98, dimming from 10 to 100 percent, maximum illumination at 1 m of 160 klux for the 700 mm head and an LED lifetime above 60,000 hours. Vision and Intelligent versions offer camera options, including wireless 4K.
Solido medical pendants are slim, easy-to-clean ceiling pendants for operating rooms, intensive care and recovery, with no visible fixing screws and a brake system with indicator lighting. They are always built to order, with RAL colour options, so layout, gas and power requirements must be defined early.
OpenOR integration and planning the theatre
OpenOR is an operating room integration and AV system that unifies devices, video, audio and room functions such as lighting and ventilation under one interface. Its open architecture allows devices from any manufacturer to be integrated, and its modular design lets a hospital start with the AV system and add features later. It connects to HIS, BMS and PACS and uses a fibre network with uncompressed 4K capacity.
Specify integration at the design stage, because cabling, ceiling structure and room layout depend on it. Include table, light and pendant compatibility in your technical specification so that bidders propose a coordinated package.
Buying Lojer in the UAE: what to ask
Request a configuration list for each theatre showing table, accessories, lights, pendants and integration, with dimensions, loads and utilities. Confirm registration status in the UAE for each item, and ask about installation, acceptance testing, user training and service. Plan maintenance from the start; see operating theatre equipment maintenance.
