LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - AIM-listed intellectual property service provider Tekcapital expects a step-up in sales as it launches its sled product, which allows incapacitated people to be moved down stairs at speed in the event of an emergency evacuation, in the European Union.
Medical device company Belluscura, which Tekcapital owns a 65% stake in has launched Slyde, a compact sled for moving people down stairs or over rough ground.

Slyde, which is already sold in the US, folds up and stores in stacks of up to five units in a storage sleeve and is available in two sizes.

Stephen Appelbee, Belluscura's international director of global sales, said: "Our first product, Slyde, is a good example of Belluscura's mission to provide premium medical device products at affordable prices, and we expect it to be widely adopted by hospitals, schools, hotels and rescue services.

"We intend to use the expertise of local distributors in each region, starting in the European Union."
