Discover Pressalit Care: Premium Design for Accessible and Hygienic Bathrooms
In today's world, creating inclusive spaces isn't just a nice-to-have—it's essential. Whether you're outfitting a care facility, a public restroom, or a home bathroom for loved ones with mobility challenges, the right products can make all the difference. Enter Pressalit Care, a Danish brand renowned for its innovative, high-quality solutions that blend Scandinavian design with uncompromising functionality, hygiene, and accessibility. Since 1954, Pressalit has been committed to the motto "keep living," empowering people with disabilities or reduced mobility to maintain independence and dignity in their daily routines. At our Shopify store, we're proud to offer the full range of Pressalit Care products, from manual and electrically height-adjustable changing tables to the versatile Matrix washbasin series, colourful grab rails, drop-down supports, shower seats, and beyond. Let's dive into what makes these products stand out and how they can transform your space.
Revolutionizing Care with Height-Adjustable Changing Tables
Changing tables are the cornerstone of accessible hygiene routines, and Pressalit's line up excels in providing safe, ergonomic options for both children and adults. Available in fixed, manual, and electrically adjustable models, these tables are built from durable, waterproof materials that prioritize easy cleaning and infection control—perfect for high-traffic environments like hospitals, nursing homes, or home care setups.
Take the Pressalit 1000 Series, a fixed-height model with a generous 55.5" x 23.5" surface and a robust 386 lbs weight capacity. It folds away to save space and includes integrated safety rails for secure transfers, all while complying with ADA guidelines for seamless integration. For more flexibility, the 3000 Series offers folding designs suitable for shower use, with vented mattress panels that allow water to drain efficiently into a removable tray below. No more soggy, unhygienic messes!
Electrically height-adjustable options like the SCT 3000 or 31.5" x 55.1" models take it further, descending to wheelchair height for effortless transfers and rising to an ergonomic level (up to 37.4") to reduce caregiver strain. Benefits? Enhanced safety, reduced back injuries for staff, and a comfortable experience for users. These tables aren't just functional—they're a game-changer for barrier-free care.
Elevate Hygiene with Rise & Fall Wash Basins: The Matrix Range
Nothing says "accessible luxury" like a washbasin that adapts to the user. Pressalit's Matrix series redefines bathroom ergonomics with height- and sideways-adjustable designs that move seamlessly on wall tracks, ensuring wheelchair users have ample knee space and reach. Crafted from smooth, seamless porcelain with integrated overflows and optional tap holes, these basins optimize infection control while delivering a sleek, modern aesthetic.
The MATRIX Medium and Angle models stand out with built-in handrails for added stability, curved edges for seated access, and dimensions like 1000 x 571 mm that fit diverse installations. The ergonomic MATRIX Curve even features a gently contoured front for effortless use, making it ideal for multi-user facilities. Benefits include promoting independence (no more awkward leaning), superior hygiene (easy-to-clean surfaces resist bacteria), and space efficiency—adjust in seconds without tools. Whether in a hospital rehab wing or a senior living community, Matrix basins turn routine tasks into dignified ones.
Sturdy Support: Grab Rails and Drop-Down Rails in Every Style
Support is subtle but vital, and Pressalit's grab rails and drop-down options deliver it with style. Available in a rainbow of RAL colours (like soft white, vibrant blue, or neutral grey) and sizes from 27.6" to 33.5", these rails are made from slip-resistant, Rilsan-coated steel for a warm, grippy feel that withstands daily wear.
The PLUS fold-down grab bars shine with integrated counter-balances for smooth, controlled folding—preventing slams or slips—and optional operating panels for easy use. VALUE models offer budget-friendly fixed-height folding with ergonomic grips and adjustable hinges. Drop-down rails extend this support horizontally or vertically, folding out of the way when not needed. With load capacities up to 440 lbs and tool-free adjustability, they enhance safety in showers, toilets, or transfer areas. The real win? Customizable colours mean they blend into any décor, turning functional aids into design features that boost confidence and prevent falls.
Comfort and Security: Pressalit Shower Seats
Showering shouldn't be a slippery slope—literally. Pressalit's shower seats provide stable, adjustable perches that make hydrotherapy safe and soothing. From the VALUE IV folding seat with a supporting leg to the PLUS 450 series, these are height- and depth-adjustable (manually or electrically) to fit users of all sizes, with options for backrests and armrests for extra reassurance.
Key features include detachable designs for easy cleaning, durable non-slip surfaces, and a range of colours and sizes for multi-user rooms. Benefits? They reduce fall risks, alleviate pressure on joints, and allow caregivers to focus on care rather than crisis management. As industry leaders note, Pressalit shower seats are "sturdy, reliable, and easy to keep clean," setting the standard for comfort in care environments.
Why Choose Pressalit Care? The Bigger Picture
Across the board, Pressalit Care products shine in their commitment to sustainability, with recyclable materials and timeless designs that last. They're certified for safety (ADA-compliant, tested for load and hygiene), and their modular systems mean one setup serves multiple needs—saving time and money for facility managers. From public "changing places" initiatives to private home adaptations, these solutions foster independence, dignity, and joy in everyday moments.
