The platform lift company a leading UK and Australian supplier of disabled access lifts opens up for business in Dubai
The Platform Lift Company Pty Ltd has opened an office in Dubai to market and install disabled access lifts throughout the Middle East. The Platform Lift Company specializes in providing disabled access solutions for commercial or residential use.
It is estimated that in the MENA region there are approximately thirty (30) million disabled people according to Heath Donnelly Managing Director The Platform Lift Company Dubai.
Providing accessibility to this significant percent of the population is not only a social and moral obligation it offers a huge retail business opportunity. It is also a legal responsibility in the form of the UAE Disability Act (Federal Law No 29/2006).
Building designers, construction companies, building owners and managers must ensure that adequate disabled access is provided and properly maintained. The Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission will prosecute service providers and employers who have made the necessary adjustments to make their premises accessible to disabled people.
Platform lifts offer a cost effective and aesthetic alternative to traditional lifts. They are easy to install, low maintenance and take up substantially less real estate because there is no pit, no machine room and no headroom. Platform lifts are ideally suited for offices, shops restaurants, factories, hotels, schools and any other public access buildings. They can be customized to meet special requirements and provide a practical and low cost solution when disable access needs to be added to an existing building.
The Platform Lift Company manufactures, distributes, and maintains platform lifts throughout Europe, Australasia, the Middle East, China and Japan.
