Rollator-Rest ©

Easy an safe travel

More and more elderly people and people with disabilities use a rollator or wheelchair. These mobility aids enable them to remain mobile and independent. Our mission is to increase their freedom of movement by allowing them to use public transport in an easy, comfortable, and safe way, with minimal impact on the operator’s processes and the driver’s work.

The only thing operators need to do is install a Rollator-Rest unit in an easily accessible location in their public transport vehicles.

Benefits for everyone…

Passengers with a rollator
The rollator support provides greater comfort and safety.

Passengers with a rollator…

  • can sit on a familiar device
  • do not need to search for a seat
  • do not need to move to a seat
  • do not need to secure the rollator separately
  • always have one or two hands on a stabilising point

Operators

The rollator support provides…

  • time: no waiting time while passengers move to a seat
  • 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.
