Britplas, well-known for its Safevent antiligature window (pictured), will show its latest window, the Rapidvent, which allows for natural ventilation and improved air quality and, it says, reduces the need for mechanical plant for ventilation and cooling.
Also exhibited will be the company’s new Safesee Door, designed for mental healthcare settings. The whole of the door has been designed as a programmable scale that allows for notification of a ligature taking place on any part of the door. It also includes a ‘unique’ observation panel, and has an invisible, instant release anti-barricade jamb. The door has recently won the Product Design for Healthcare Application Award at the Design & Health World Congress & Exhibition in Australia. Britplas will also show its Safevent windows, and Safevent Fencing, which it says ‘provides total security and safety’, while being anti-climb. The fencing allows for the overprinting of large and detailed artworks, which can create attractive, calming vistas for patients, while minimising the fencing’s physical presence, ‘adhering to salutogenic principles’.
