Who We Are
Coming full circle is the story of the InnerSpace and Solaire Medical journey. Our history dates back to the 1980s and Datel, a small medical storage business, which counted among its leadership the now-owners of InnerSpace. Datel evolved into InnerSpace and grew into an established company focused on manufacturing department-specific hospital storage products. In 2008, InnerSpace was sold, and a few years later Solaire Medical was born with the intent to take the medical storage knowledge honed over the years to further innovate the design, materials, and construction of medical storage.
In 2018, Solaire Medical acquired InnerSpace. A reinvigorated company, with the combined expertise, experience, and innovation developed over the years is evident in a portfolio of products and a knowledgeable team of salespeople, storage consultants, and service representatives that create value for customers by improving the organization of equipment and supplies and the efficiency of staff.
