A wheelchair lift, or a vertical platform lift (VPL), is a specifically designed mechanical device used to transport individuals with disabilities or mobility impairments in a wheelchair between different floors of a building. It is installed across public buildings, homes, and vehicles to provide easy access to elevated areas that may be difficult or impossible to reach for individuals with disabilities. It provides a convenient and safe alternative to stairs or ramps, especially within limited space. Wheelchair lifts come in various types and designs, such as hydraulic, screw-drive, and electric-powered lifts. It can be set up indoors and outdoors, depending on the user's needs and preferences. In addition to this, they assist in providing accessibility and independence to individuals.
Wheelchair Lift Market Trends:
The increasing demand for wheelchair lifts in public transportation, private vehicles, stairs, and escalators represents one of the key factors driving the market growth. Concurrent with this, the implementation of favorable government initiatives to provide mobility-friendly commercial wheelchair lifts in public places, hospitals, clinics, and commercial spaces such as shopping malls and offices to improve accessibility for individuals with disabilities is creating a favorable outlook for the market.
