Technical novelty unveiled at Rehacare, Düsseldorf

Climbing the stairs actively and comfortably with StairWalker.

ThyssenKrupp Access is the first and only company so far that took on the challenge of researching and developing technical support for climbing stairs actively and keeping people fit and mobile: StairWalker is the perfect equipment that helps people to climb stairs despite impaired mobility. Today, the new product was presented to the public at the REHACARE fair in Düsseldorf.

Rehacare visitors showed great interest in today’s unveiling and first presentation of the Stairwalker

 

StairWalker is ideal for people who are still able to climb the stairs but just need some degree of support and people who are learning to walk again, for example during or after rehabilitation. They will feel that climbing up and down the stairs is getting much easier every time they use it. StairWalker provides soft and comfortable assistance at the user’s back or front for them to lean on. It`s unique mechanical system allows the user to actively climb stairs by himself, supported by a gentle push. So people learn to walk again or improve their mobility much faster – first under the guidance of a physiotherapist, and independently after that.

But StairWalker is not only the helping hand on the staircase but a stylish tool for fitness and mobility as well. It offers ergonomic design, modern materials and colours. Due to its attractive design it fits perfectly into every building as an exclusive accessory with nice materials and modern colors as well as space saving installation and low noise.

As soon as the Stairwalker is available on the market you can find further information on the website of our German sales organization ThyssenKrupp Encasa.
