PRM Accessibility Seating & Mobility
Seating and mobility products designed for persons with reduced mobility (PRM) and accessibility compliance across the terminal journey. Spans bariatric and assist-height seats, priority and companion seating, perch and transfer benches, and PRM mobility equipment used by assistance teams between landside, gate and aircraft. Specification is driven by accessibility regulation and assistance-service KPIs as much as comfort: arm-support, transfer clearance, signage and wayfinding integration all matter. Buyers are airport operations and ground-handling assistance providers, often procuring alongside the wider seating refit but against a separate compliance brief.
"GCC hubs handle exceptionally high volumes of elderly Hajj and Umrah pilgrims through JED and MED and a large medical-tourism flow, making PRM assistance a high-visibility service obligation. Saudi accessibility mandates under Vision 2030 and the GCC's reputation-sensitive flagship terminals (DXB, DOH, AUH) drive structured demand for compliant accessible seating and assist mobility equipment."
