Company history

In 1976 the MAM Society was founded by Peter Röhrig in Vienna. In the same year, the first MAM pacifier was also sold in Austria. Eleven years later, BAMED AG was also launched as an international company and production center in Switzerland, and in 1989 the MAM company was founded in Great Britain. In 1990 the Swedish market leader "Bambino" was bought and the subsidiary MAM Hungaria Kft was established. In the same year, the company's first production site was opened.

The MAM company in Germany was founded in 1991. In 1997, a MAM research and development department was set up in Siegendorf , and the establishment of the MAM subsidiary in Brazil began one year ago.

In 2002 the group's own latex production "Thaimed" started in Thailand. A year later, the production location in Hungary was expanded with the establishment of the BAMED AG branch. Finally, in 2008, further MAM companies were created in Spain and the USA.

As of September 2013, the entire technical development, marketing and customer service is carried out by around 60 employees in Austria, and there are production facilities in Hungary and Thailand. There has been a commercial head office in Switzerland since (around) 1993. With subsidiaries in countries such as Brazil, USA, Sweden and Germany, there are a total of 12 companies with 600 employees worldwide. Peter Röhrig intends to continue the company for a few more years, and his son will succeed him.
