Mobile System

Image communicating that pool platform lifts provide a more dignified and independent experience for wheelchair users.  On the left side a user is entering a swimming pool with an unpopular pool hoist and there is no queue of users.  On the right side, by comparison, the companies poolpod pool lift is so popular that a queue of users with different universal design requirements has formed waiting to enter the pool.   The line (queue) includes wheelchair users, users with walking sticks and pregnant people.

Dignified and independent
