Ardoo Caresafe Limited is a specialist manufacturer of portable patient hoists, now based in Nottingham as part of the Polymorit Ltd group following their acquisition in 2021. Originally founded in Dublin, Ireland, the company has developed innovative lifting solutions designed to be the lightest and most compact folding portable hoists available on the market.The company’s flagship product is the Ardoo Caresafe 140, a portable folding hoist that features a unique front-facing lifting mechanism rather than the traditional overhead approach. This design, combined with the smallest footprint in the portable hoist category, makes it suitable for use in tight spaces within homes, care settings and when travelling. Ardoo also manufactures the StandAid Combo, a stand aid device for users who need assistance moving from seated to standing positions.All Ardoo products are CE and UKCA marked, complying with IEC60601 medical device safety standards and ISO 10535 international standards for patient lifting hoists. Products come with a 24-month warranty on parts and 12-month warranty on batteries, with six-monthly inspection and service requirements. The combination of medical-grade safety certification and genuinely portable design makes Ardoo Caresafe equipment particularly valuable for carers and users who need reliable lifting assistance both at home and when away from home.
