For internal use only.
With a safe working load of 200kg, the Freeway Adjustable Height Shower Trolley is an easy to manoeuvre and easy to use
hygiene solutions for caregivers and immobile patients. The Shower Trolleys assist patients to transfer from a bed to the shower

to the patient and caregiver. The Shower Trolley will provide complete safety, dignity and comfort to the person being

The easy to use trolley is designed to be operated by both professional health care workers and home health care workers who

use trolley maximises the amount of care provided to the person.
