Olympic Extra 230 Hoist

The Olympic Extra 230 is a bariatric mobile patient hoist purpose-built for the safe lifting, moving and transferring of plus-size residents. Its pivot frame and clip sling design, combined with a lightweight steel construction, delivers the stability required for bariatric care without compromising on manoeuvrability — making it easy for carers to navigate corridors and room furniture even with larger residents.

Despite its high safe working load of 230kg (36 stone), the Olympic Extra 230 remains extra-light and easy to move, with a wide leg spread of up to 1,240mm providing excellent stability during transfers. A 5-year warranty and full LOLER compliance make it a reliable long-term investment for care homes managing bariatric residents.
