A GENUINE GLOBAL NEED
It’s no secret that the world’s population is aging. According to the World Health Organization, by 2030 our planet will be home to over 1.4 billion people over the age of 60.
- In most countries, over 90% of the senior population prefer to ‘age-in-place’ while residing in their own homes
- 13% of the adult population suffer from a range of medical conditions, that despite their ability to stand and walk, make it challenging for them to climb or descend stairs
- The U.S. Ministry of Health indicates that 1 in 4 Americans age 60+ falls every year
- A home staircase is considered one of the most dangerous places for an aging occupant
- A fall down the staircase, especially at advanced ages, can impair long-term functioning and force the injured person into a situation in which he requires around-the-clock assistance at a high cost and tremendous discomfort
THE CLIMBER - A REVOLUTIONARY SOLUTION
Both safe and affordable, The Climber is a revolutionary escalator for both interior and exterior home use (for example home entrance stairways).
The Climber is distinguished by its simple assembly that does not require structural changes, in addition to its ease of operation and maintenance.
The Climber fits any staircase width, and is fully customized in terms of length or colors.
When the climber is installed, you can choose to climb or descend the stairs using or without The CLIMBER
The CLIMBER has been authorized to carry the European CE mark of safety and is operated by remote control.
THE MARKET
PRIVATE HOMEOWNERS
Our preliminary target market for The CLIMBER is private homeowners who are able to stand and walk but find it difficult to use the stairs due to knee problems, heart conditions, muscle weakness, arthritis, etc.
A significant part of this group are seniors over the age of 65, while over 50% of this population suffers from difficulty when climbing stairs.
The current total global market for auxiliary products for home stair climbing and stairlifts is estimated at approximately $1.6 billion and expected to grow.
The projected growth rate of the industry is considered high (approx. 10% per year, for the coming years) for obvious reasons associated with increased longevity, willingness to adopt technological solutions and broadening the accessibility to the public.
URBAN MOBILITY AND ACCESSIBILITY
In old subway stations, and even at many historical tourist sites, elevators and escalators cannot be installed due to technical or engineering-related factors. The CLIMBER, by being placed on existing stairs, without any need for demolition or construction work, is likely to become an ideal solution in addressing these challenges.
