Indoor & Outdoor Commercial Lifts
Media Release (July 2012) - "Pandect designs and manufactures New Zealand's first and only NZS 4334:2012 compliant lift.
Pandect welcomes the introduction of a new national standard for platform and low-speed lifts (NZS 4334:2012) and believes it was important for New Zealand to have a specific standard relevant to the New Zealand Building Code (NZBC), relating to low-rise, low speed and low use lifts.
This standard is a key measure in helping to ensure fit for purpose and safe access equipment is installed in public buildings where it is expected that stairs will carry the majority of traffic, without the costs and building works associated with conventional volume moving, high rise and high speed lifts.
Pandect is the first and currrently only manuafcturer in New Zealand able to offer and supply a completely compliant NZS 4334 lift"
Pandect platform lifts are a safe, cost effective and economical solution in overcoming accessibility barriers in the ‘commercial’ environment.
