EMERGENCY EVACUATIONS | EVAC+CHAIR A SAFE EVACUATION
Here we present Evac+Chair International, the world’s leading supplier and original manufacturer of evacuation chairs.
Evac+Chair products are designed to accommodate individuals with mobility impairment, allowing them to descend a staircase in an emergency situation without the need for great physical strength or lifting.
Evac+Chair provides comprehensive training and education to ensure the effective use of its products, instilling confidence and safety in disabled or mobility impaired users and those assisting. Each training session is tailored to suit the specific range of risks highlighted by each customer. An employee who receives the Evac+Chair Key Trainer Masterclass can then competently train other employees within the workplace; this is a cost effective method of training staff on large or multi-site operations.
The latest 500 model has the capacity to hold an individual weighing 228kgs and is suitable for transporting heavier weights. The new design also includes smooth transportation on steep inclines of 45°, which reduces the strain on the operators during use.
The lightweight frame has generated additional savings to accommodate supplementary features such as a footrest, which can also be used as a support handle when the chair is being used in a two-person operation and foldaway handles for extra support. The width of the frame has also been increased and padded patient restraint straps added to allow any individual below the specified weight to be safely transported with ease. The Evac+Chair 500 answers demands from the industry to accommodate for
any individual, essentially creating a one-size-fits-all solution.
In addition to evacuation chairs, Evac+Chair offers a wide variety of evacuation aids and accessories to accommodate an individual in an emergency situation. With over 35 years’ experience, Evac+Chair has become a leading specialist in emergency evacuation, ensuring customers comply fully with health and safety regulations. This can range from providing products and advising on the legalities that surround evacuation planning and deployment, to specific training and regular maintenance.
