Seca Scales Precision for health As the world leader for medical weighing, Seca has set the standard in function, technology and design for 170 years. In collaboration with practitioners and researchers, Seca develops scales and dimensional measuring equipment that meets the greatest demands in precision and reliability. Seca is measured on the basis of local characteristics and regional standards. Branches in Switzerland, Great Britain, France, Japan, China, Mexico and the US, as well as a distribution network in 110 countries ensure that Seca is able to quickly identify different requirements of national markets worldwide. Customized weighing and measuring systems are the answer to the requirements and current development. The meaningful interaction between medicine, technology and design is always important for all Seca products. Only when the interaction is right can the focus be on the most important thing in weighing and measuring: the person. The Seca range covers baby, column and flat scales with suitable height scales, as well as chair, wheel chair and bed scales. All over the world, doctors and nursing staff at GP practices, hospitals, rehabilitation and senior centers rely daily on the high quality of the medical measuring devices for diagnosis and therapy. Seca has also made a name for itself in the commercial market. Seca scales may be found at the chemist’s, in the fitness studio and in the sauna. Alongside high precision, durability and reliability are the attributes particularly valued here. Expertise in matters of weighing is also reflected in the Seca range for home use. Given the continuous trend towards wellness and body awareness, high-quality products with an award-winning design are in demand more than ever before. And here, Seca has the right model for every requirement. The company’s founding goes back to the young master fitter A.C.C. Joachims. He acquired the relevant knowledge from monk Quintenz of Strasbourg, who invented the decimal balance in 1821. Back in Hamburg, A.C.C. Joachims founded a scales factory in 1840, was the first in Germany to produce decimal balances, and sold them all over the world. After his death, the young engine fitter Frederik
Vogel acquired the company. Soon after, Seca Vogel & Halke GmbH
& Co. became famous for its innovative developments, repeatedly
setting market-driving standards over the decades. Seca is still a
family business today. As of 1970, Sönke Vogel, a grandchild of
Frederik, has headed the company. The company has its own branches in
France, England, Switzerland, and the U.S. The head office in Hamburg
employs around 100 staff.
