2-Fold Stretcher for Compact Patient Transport
The 2-Fold Stretcher is a compact patient transport solution for medical, rescue, emergency response, and field operations. Its folding aluminium construction reduces the space required for storage while retaining the full-length platform needed for moving a patient. The stretcher is designed for teams that need equipment that is straightforward to deploy, clean, carry, and return to service.
Compact Folding Configuration
When open, the stretcher measures 219 × 53 × 13.5 cm. It folds to 109 × 53 × 17 cm and can be closed further to 109 × 9 × 19 cm for transport or storage. The 5.97 kg weight supports practical handling by trained personnel, while the lightweight aluminium structure provides a rugged frame for repeated operational use. A patient restraint is included to help secure the patient during movement in accordance with the organisation’s procedures.

Designed for Operational Readiness
The simple folding arrangement makes the 2-Fold Stretcher suitable for vehicles, emergency stores, clinics, temporary medical facilities, and response kits where available space is limited.

The waterproof, cleanable design also supports routine decontamination processes, subject to the cleaning agents and procedures approved by the user’s organisation.
Load-test figures describe controlled testing and should not be treated as a substitute for training, inspection, maintenance, or local operating limits. Before each use, personnel should inspect the frame, hinges, fabric, restraint, and other load-bearing components. Any damaged or suspect stretcher should be removed from service and assessed by an authorised person.
