Below we offer a preview of the main FDA-approved devices on display at EMS World Expo.

Our 4BELL SILVER+ represents the next generation in lightweight, compact evacuation stair chairs. Designed with the needs of EMS professionals in mind, this stair chair features a sleek aluminum frame that makes it both exceptionally light and durable. In high-pressure scenarios where rapid response is crucial, this chair stands out for its ease of use, quick deployment, and exceptional mobility.

For paramedics and EMS teams in the U.S., where stairway evacuations are often part of emergency procedures in urban environments, the 4BELL SILVER+ excels. Its telescopic front handles and foldable rear handles allow it to be carried and maneuvered over obstacles with minimal effort, while pivoting front wheels ensure smooth transport even in tight spaces. A foldable footrest and a foot pedal-activated rear brake provide additional patient stability and safety during descent.

Whether in an apartment building or a crowded venue, the 4BELL SILVER+ ensures that responders can act swiftly and with confidence. Its compact size makes it easy to store in ambulances or staging areas, ensuring it’s always on hand when needed.

Building on the strengths of the 4BELL SILVER +, the 4BELL STAIR+ adds reinforced tracks that allow the chair to glide smoothly down stairs, reducing the need for heavy lifting and operator strain. These tracks, designed with high-adherence technology, carry the weight of the patient safely and efficiently during descent. For EMS teams frequently facing multi-story rescues, this stair chair delivers peace of mind by minimizing physical exertion and enhancing safety.

The 4BELL STAIR+ is the perfect solution for paramedics who must prioritize both speed and patient stability in emergency evacuations. With the same compact, easy-to-store design as the 4BELL SILVER+, this model offers added functionality for more complex rescues. Its ergonomic design makes it a favorite among U.S. paramedics who need reliable, easy-to-use equipment that works seamlessly in high-stress environments​.

The SKID-OK evacuation chair is specifically designed for staircase evacuations in high-rise buildings and other multi-story structures. Its reinforced tracks eliminate the need for manual lifting during descent, making it ideal for use in facilities where elevators are out of service or inaccessible during emergencies. Its aluminum frame is both lightweight and resistant, providing a sturdy yet portable solution for EMS teams. The large-diameter wheels ensure smooth movement on flat surfaces, while the chair’s adjustable ergonomic handle gives operators full control as they guide patients down stairs.

In emergency evacuations, the SKID-OK is a standout product for both professional EMS teams and non-professional operators, such as building safety personnel or bystanders. The chair’s intuitive design allows for quick deployment, even by those with minimal training, ensuring that mobility-impaired individuals can be safely evacuated in a matter of minutes.

The SPENCER SHELL is our most robust and versatile basket stretcher, built to perform in the harshest environments. Constructed from high-density polyethylene (PE), this stretcher offers unparalleled protection for patients during transport, particularly in extreme rescue scenarios such as mountain rescues, disaster zones and offshore emergencies. Its durable construction safeguards patients from lateral impacts, ensuring stability and safety even in unpredictable conditions.

One of the key advantages of the SPENCER SHELL is its adaptability to different rescue operations. The parallel skids at the bottom facilitate easy sliding across uneven terrain, while eyelets along the perimeter provide secure gripping points for hooks and lifting bridle attachments. This makes the SPENCER SHELL suitable for both ground-based rescue teams and aerial or water rescue operations.

For EMS professionals operating in diverse environments—from rugged outdoor terrains to urban disaster areas—the SPENCER SHELL delivers reliable, versatile patient transport. Its ability to float, combined with integrated winch compatibility, makes it a go-to solution for water rescues, ensuring that even in the most challenging scenarios, patients can be safely evacuated​.

The TANGO and BABY GO backboards offer a unique, dual-function solution for EMS teams needing to transport both adult and pediatric patients. This device can be separated in two backboards and used independently, allowing EMS teams to handle simultaneous rescues with ease. The pediatric spine board is designed with special attention to anatomical detail, providing optimal immobilization for children, while the adult board delivers robust support for larger patients.

EMS teams, especially those responding to incidents involving both adults and children, will find the TANGO & BABY GO system indispensable. Its compact design saves space in ambulances, while its easy-to-clean surface ensures that it can be rapidly redeployed between calls​.
