The Mitanium Group has teamed up with Vapor Ricon Europe to redefine accessibility for their exclusive Shepherd Hut toilet trailers. By integrating the innovative S-Series lift, this project brings to the forefront the importance of inclusive design and making mobile facilities accessible to all.
The bespoke Shepherd Hut toilet trailer, manufactured exclusively by Mitanium, was designed to uniquely blend rustic elegance and high-end modern functionality. However, the elevated floor height and tight spaces where these trailers often operate posed a significant challenge for traditional accessibility options. The Vapor Ricon S-Series lift proved to be the ideal solution, offering a reliable, compact, and efficient alternative to bulky ramps.
Dan Fillingham, Manufacturing Manager for the Mitanium Group, commented: “This is the first time the S-Series lift has been integrated into a Shepherd Hut toilet trailer. As an innovative manufacturer, we’re always looking to push the boundaries of what our products can achieve. Including Vapor Ricon’s lift has added a new dimension to our trailers, and it’s something we’ll continue to champion in the future. We’re thrilled with how it has performed for this customer and their feedback has been hugely positive.”
The S-Series lift, by Vapor Ricon Europe, is a platform lift designed for a range of environments. This solid platform option, known for its reliability, and user-friendly operation, ensures a smooth experience for users while eliminating the need for long, cumbersome ramps. Its integration into the Shepherd Hut trailer not only improves accessibility but also highlights the importance of creating inclusive access for everyone.
Sam Maclure, Service Engineer and Technical Sales at Vapor Ricon Europe, commended: “It was fantastic to work with a pioneering company such as Mitanium on this inclusive design project. The S-Series lift is designed to be both reliable and easy to use, and it’s a great match for a unique product like Mitanium’s Shepherd Hut trailer. It just goes to show that even in niche applications, accessibility and innovation go hand in hand.”
