Evacuation specialists, Escape Mobility, have developed their three core service areas to help people with responsibility for evacuation planning, according to the company.

Escape Mobility describe these three service areas as:

• Escape Evsure provides advice, consultancy, product servicing and training to ensure a robust evacuation plan is in place, that all evacuation equipment is in good working order, and those using it are competent and confident in doing so, says the firm. They add that Evsure is vital to ensuring that every person inside a building can evacuate quickly and safely should the need arise.
• Escape Experts have provided evacuation support to a variety of businesses across many industries for many years, according the company, adding that the team endeavour to understand an organisation’s individual needs, the people frequenting the premises and the type of building occupied. Particular industries of expertise include education, healthcare and retail/commercial properties where the mobility and age of the people using the buildings differ greatly.
• Escape Equipment is a range of high-quality specialist evacuation products and accessories that have been designed and built for purpose, with safety and durability in mind, says the company.
