The Ropox shower couch is a wall-mounted, electrically height-adjustable changing and shower table designed for assisted bathing and personal care in hygiene rooms and accessible bathrooms. Its slimline, foldable design makes it suitable for both new-build and refurbishment projects where space efficiency and ease of cleaning are essential.
The couch provides 700 mm of electric height adjustment, allowing carers to work at an ergonomic and safe height while supporting smooth transfers from wheelchairs and other equipment.
