Rollator-Rest ©
Gemakkelijk en veilig reizen
Steeds meer ouderen en gehandicapten maken gebruik van een rollator of rolstoel. Deze hulpmiddelen bieden hen de mogelijkheid om mobiel en onafhankelijk te blijven. Onze missie is om hun bewegingsvrijheid te vergroten door hen op een gemakkelijke, comfortabele en veilige manier gebruik te laten maken van het openbaar vervoer, met minimale impact op de activiteiten van de exploitant en het werk van de chauffeur.

Operators
The rollator support provides…

- capacity: passengers with a rollator do not occupy a seat
- safety: passengers with limited mobility can sit safely
Heinz Illi, Safety Officer at Zurich Public Transport (VBZ):
“I was surprised by the convincing results during the practical test in Zurich. I would very much like to introduce the rollator support as soon as possible to solve this ongoing problem in our vehicles.”
Safe and stable
The Rollator-Rest ensures that your rollator:
- stays in place: prevents unwanted movement
- remains upright: reduces the risk of tipping over
Note: During extreme acceleration, the rollator may shift or tip over, just like other seated passengers.
Technical reliability and durability
The Rollator-Rest stands out thanks to its purely mechanical design, without complex electronics. The ingenious yet simple technology creates a harmonious combination of efficiency and ease of use. In addition, the use of standard industrial components ensures durability and easy maintenance, guaranteeing long-term reliability in demanding environments.
