The Mangar ELK Lifting Cushion is an emergency lifting aid engineered for safe, dignified floor-to-seat recovery, suitable for a wide range of individuals—from frail elderly to plus-size users. With support for up to 450 kg (980 lb), the ELK works in tight spaces like bathrooms, hallways, or bedrooms. It operates using a battery-powered Airflo 24 compressor that inflates the cushion at the touch of a button, allowing caregivers to lift using only one hand while standing behind the user. The unit weighs only 3.6–3.8 kg (8 lb) and folds compactly (≈ 62 × 26 × 12 cm), making it easy to store or transport. Typically delivering up to 6 lifts per charge, with deflation in under a minute, it’s trusted by NHS ambulance services, care homes, and residential settings worldwide, and stems manually-handled injury risk.
