Why care homes use this

A fixed or folding shower seat is required in any assisted shower or wet room under BS 8300 where a seated shower is intended. Pressalit seats are specified by OTs and contractors because the 250 kg load rating exceeds the minimum BS EN 12727 requirement, providing a margin of safety for bariatric residents without requiring a separate bariatric product.

Key specification

Folding wall-mounted seat; 250 kg static load rating; padded antibacterial seat; foldaway armrests; height-adjustable bracket 44–57 cm; seat depth 47 cm; white or grey finish.
