Angle change for Evac+Chair

Evac+Chair International has increased the angle of descent capability of its Evac+Chair emergency evacuation chair by 2° so that it now has an operating angle of 40°.

This new product development widens the application of the chair so that those with steeper stairs typically found in the domestic housing sector or in period buildings, can now use the Evac+Chair as an emergency evacuation solution for the mobility impaired.

The Evac+Chair, which is manufactured in the UK, can be operated safely at this angle enabling a single user to evacuate a person with mobility difficulties quickly and easily using continuous belts to provide controlled descent over stair nosings in proportion to passenger weight.

This latest product development follows an increase in the payload capabilities of the Evac+Chair from 136 kg to 150 kg during 2006, underlining its position at the forefront of its market.
