New York City, New York Feb 14, 2020 (Issuewire.com) - EVAC CHAIR® North America LLC, maker of the original, lightest and world’s best-selling Evacuation Chairs, has announced the supply of their Evacuation Chairs to Ellis Island, part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument.
Ellis Island is the place where families and individuals visit to celebrate and honor those family members who made the arduous journey to a new life in the United States of America.
Ellis Island opened in 1892 as an immigration station, a purpose it served for more than 60 years until it closed in 1954. Located at the mouth of Hudson River between New York and New Jersey, Ellis Island saw millions of newly arrived immigrants pass through its doors. In fact, it has been estimated that close to 40 percent of all current U.S. citizens can trace at least one of their ancestors to Ellis Island.
Mark Roberts of EVAC CHAIR® North America added “We are proud of our relationship with the National Parks Service. EVAC CHAIR® is the leading provider of evacuation chairs to organizations around the world, including the Statue of Liberty National Monument. In the event of anyone, whether visitors or staff required to be evacuated we have the right solution in the EVAC CHAIR®, which exceeds ADA/NFPA fire safety guidelines.”
For the last 40 years, EVAC CHAIR® is the choice for safe evacuation for thousands of organizations including high profile companies such as Apple, Disney and the NBA. Developed in New York City in 1982, EVAC CHAIR® is the global industry standard for lightweight, portable evacuation chairs.
Today the EVAC CHAIR® sells globally to large and small venues, corporate entities, residential buildings, as well as to hotels, hospitals, office buildings, schools, assisted living facilities, residential and commercial high-rise buildings.
