Evaccess to unveil ‘The Swift’ powered goods lifter at Safety & Health Expo 2017

Evaccess will demo a brand new, powered, specialised, goods lifter for its first major showing at the Safety & Health Expo,  20-22nd June 2017.

Evacuation equipment, powered stair climber and goods specialist Evaccess (also known as Swallow EMP) are established as one of the leading designers and manufacturers of Powered Emergency Escape equipment for mobility impaired people.

The Swift has been in development for over two and a half years in conjunction with London Underground to transport labour intensive and bulk items.  It is designed to move heavy and difficult loads from street level to track-side, able to traverse a variety of stairs, move across flat terrain as well as go up and down escalators.

The Swift is manufactured in Italy and has a number of technological features that  make it easy to operate and maintain, with fully certified operator and maintenance training packages to be made available.

While primarily designed to meet the needs of the Tube network, the Swift also works for any organisation that have specialised goods moving requirements and in future  more bespoke models and attachments will become available.

Paul Mitchell, Director of Evaccess, says

“Safety & Health Expo is by far the largest and most prestigious health and safety event in the calendar and any company who is serious about their products and brand will have their own stand there.  Launching a new, innovative piece of equipment requires an established platform and the exhibition will undoubtedly go some way to meet this.

There is nothing like seeing something new and being able to speak to the team who developed it and understand its capabilities.  With something as specialised as this, potential clients need to be able to have a first-hand look at it and not just see a picture on a website.  The show is great medium and we always look forward to exhibiting there, it is a fantastic opportunity to meet new and old colleagues, competitors and customers alike”.

 

In addition to the new product, Evaccess will have their own range of Emergency Evacuation equipment on show on their Stand S375.  This will include a range of Powered Stair climbers, Wheelchair lifters and Tracked Emergency Evacuation Chairs.
