Evacuation chair: 10 000 customers
August 1st 2007

Evac+Chair has reached the significant milestone of 10 000 satisfied customers in markets as diverse as retail and leisure, education and the public sector.

Many of the emergency evacuation chairs installed are also on contract where full after-sales training and regular maintenance and servicing are provided.

The chair enables a single user to evacuate a person of up to 150kg quickly and easily. It is made to high specification and quality levels and has been approved under the stringent TV GS German quality standard which covers not only the product but the factory production process too.

Evac+Chair International recently increased the chair's possible angle of descent to an operating angle of 40.

The company also invests in training courses for chair users.
