First Aid Rescue Cage WP-NC2R-FAID

The WP-NC2R-FAID First Aid Rescue Cage is an emergency response and site evacuation platform engineered in strict compliance with Australian Standard AS 1418.17. Custom-designed to facilitate the safe extraction and transfer of injured personnel on active jobsites, this heavy-duty rescue cage ensures rapid, secure transport via overhead crane when conventional ground-level evacuation is impractical.

Key Features

• AS 1418.17 Compliant: Engineered and fully certified to meet strict Australian Standards for personnel crane lifting and emergency response operations.
• Stretcher & Multi-Person Capacity: Fully compatible with standard emergency stretchers and capable of carrying up to 6 personnel during site evacuations.
• Full-Height Outward Access Gate: Built with a full-height, outward-opening gate to allow seamless, unobstructed stretcher loading and unloading.
• Full Overhead & Side Protection: Fully enclosed with heavy-duty mesh sides and roof to shield casualty and medical personnel from site hazards during hoisting.
• Integrated Seating & Harness Anchors: Outfitted with internal seating for non-stretcher occupants, internal perimeter handrails, and eight (8) certified safety harness anchorage points.
• Certified Rigging Supplied: Ships complete with rated lifting chain slings for fast, direct attachment to crane hooks in an emergency.
• Transport Fork Pockets: Includes built-in fork pockets for convenient ground positioning and storage (strictly for ground transport, not for elevated lifting).
• Complete Compliance Package: Accompanied by a load test certificate, WorkSafe registration, risk assessment documentation, and comprehensive operational manuals.
• Corrosion-Resistant Zinc Coating: Protected with a heavy-duty zinc finish to resist weather and harsh industrial environments.

It is a mandatory requirement of AS1418.17 that suspension sling sets are supplied as an integral component of a personnel crane cage. If you are using or are offered a cage without dedicated chains or slings, that cage does not comply with Australian Standards and Design Registration requirements and should not be considered for the use of hoisting personnel.
