According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (aihw.gov.au), nearly two-thirds of adults are overweight or obese, with the proportion of obese adults continuing to rise.1

Various care situations like toileting and sit-to-stand transfer additionally require dedicated solutions. This is where manual handling equipment comes in.
