AKW’s improved 3000 Series shower seat offers users and installers a strong, durable chair, without the full specification of the 4000 Series. This mid-range shower seat is height adjustable, has a half back support with padding and PU arms with top padding. It also has a maximum weight of 190kg and comes with a 12-month warranty, offering users cost-effective durability.

Stuart Reynolds, Head of Product and Marketing at AKW, commented: “Our aim is to ensure that all accessibility needs are met with our products. With this in mind, we have reviewed our shower seat ranges and introduced the 1000 Series, to ensure that all end user requirements are taken into account.

“With the introduction of the 1000 Series and the additional improvements we have made to the 3000 Series, installers, occupational therapists and end users now have a shower seat to suit any need, or budget.”

AKW works closely with occupational therapists and healthcare professionals to design and manufacture a full range of easy access showering, kitchens and mobility support products.
