KAG Safety Rail - get a safe grip
Based in Esbjerg, Denmark, Acurail was established in 2018 as the master distributor of KAG Safety Rail with the aim of manufacturing, supplying and distributing innovative safety handrail products across Europe. We are a young, dynamic, forward-thinking company led by a team of highly experienced business professionals with a wealth of industry experience.
• Our strength lies in strong trade relationships where we provide our customers and distributors with the best safety rail products and a first-class service
• The company is headed up by Torben H. Pedersen, Managing Director and Steen Betak, Chief Sales Officer
Using breakthrough technology and ingenious design, our KAG Safety Rails and Handles are simply the smartest step in safety.
• They deliver superior safety and wellbeing in private homes, public healthcare sector, hospitals and care homes.
• The unique features maximise grip, minimise slip, reduce excessive physical effort and provide exceptional support and stability, wherever it is needed.
We have undertaken extensive research – primarily focused on data for Slips, Trips and Falls (STFs) in the medical sector – as this drives the requirement for the safety rails and handles. • Slips, trips and falls of less than 2mtrs constitute the largest cause of accidents
• STFs are the second most common cause of lostworkday injuries in hospitals
• Adults older than 65 years of age suffer the greatest number of fatal falls
Unlike smooth rails that easily become slippery, the KAG Rail provides real grip – whether it’s dry, wet or greasy.
• Meets infection control standards for healthcare facilities
• Compliant with the Council Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical devices, as last amended by Council Directive 2007/47/EC of 5th September 2007
• Classified in accordance with ISO 9999:2016 – Assistive products for persons with disability
• Independently tested by the Queensland University of Technology
• Achieved a 5-star rating for cleanability by infection control at Redland Bay Hospital
