Clinical-site etiquette, infection control, and stair-climber teams for sensitive devices.


We have carried event kit into ExCel, The O2, Alexandra Palace, the Tower of London and a good number of fields and castles in between, and we still criss-cross Europe at a moment's notice for the ones that come up late. Vehicles run from Renault Trafics up to an 18 tonne DAF with a 2.5 tonne cantilever tail lift, all with air ride, load lok, shoring poles and blankets. Drivers work rather than watch. Import and export customs, including ATA Carnets, is handled in house.



Analysers, imaging equipment, centrifuges and biosafety cabinets all travel the same way with us: our own air ride vehicles, our own flight cases, our own crews. Payloads run from 900kg to 7000kg, and the smallest Renault Trafic will get into an underground car park with a 2.0 metre height restriction, while the 18 tonne DAF has a 2.5t cantilever tail lift for anything that has to stay on its pallet. No lift, no problem. Medical and scientific equipment transport from Heathrow and Farnborough, since 1996.



No lift, no problem. Our go to machine is a red Stanley Handling SC620, a 46kg powered stair climber that takes 310kg up and down stairs at nine steps a minute with a 300 step range on one charge, and where the load is heavier the blue PowerMate M-1 handles 454kg on stairs with two people on it. We used one to put a 300kg 47u rack on the tenth floor. Used mainly where lift access is not permitted or the item simply will not fit.



White glove is not a service line we added, it is how we have delivered since the business was a man and a van in 1996. Clinical and laboratory sites get a one or two person team, or more if the job needs it, at a time of your choosing, plain unsignwritten vehicles, delivery to the room of choice including positioning, assembly where required, and the packaging taken away and recycled rather than left in a corridor. We can wear your corporate clothing if you prefer.

Yes, and most installations of this sort happen outside working hours anyway. We work to whatever the estates team sets out for that site, the dock slot, the escort, the lift booking, the hours we are allowed to be in a particular corridor, and we would rather walk the route with them beforehand than discover on the night that the only way through is a stairwell. Crews are DBS checked and security vetted. On paper you get the site specific RAMS beforehand, the ISO 9001:2015 certificate and the insurance schedule for the Trust's approval process, then serial capture at delivery, a signed handover and photographs where the OEM wants them. Packaging leaves with us and is recycled rather than stacked in a corridor.
Yes, that is most of a normal week. Where there is no lift, or the analyser will not fit in the one there is, we bring a powered stair climber and walk the route with you first, checking the landings, the turns, the door widths and what the floor will take, because a stairwell that looks fine in a photograph can have a handrail in exactly the wrong place. Floors and corners get protected before anything moves. For flat runs and awkward lifts we carry hydraulic lifters rated to 1800kg as a pair, scissor lift tables and a battery powered Innolift that unloads the vehicle without a forklift on site. It all goes into the method statement first. No lift, no problem.
White glove yes, and RAMS written for the specific site rather than pulled off a shelf. On infection control we will be straight with you: we are not a clinical contractor, so what we do is work to the control measures the Trust or the laboratory sets for contractors on that site, put them in the method statement, and brief the crew against them before the vehicle leaves. Delivery is to the room of choice, positioned where the item is going to live, assembled or installed where that is part of the job, with the packaging taken away and recycled. Vehicles are plain and unbranded. Crews are DBS checked and security vetted, one or two people, or more where the item needs them.
