THE PROBLEM

Helping hotels meet the needs of the deaf and hard of hearing

The Safety Centre found hotels were looking for a fire safety product that complied with regulations and provided reassurance and independence to their deaf and hard-of-hearing guests. There are nine million deaf and hard-of-hearing people in the UK, so there is a real need for deaf assistance solutions to open up more inclusive facilities and improve fire safety standards.

the solution

Deafgard is a reliable choice for hotels

Deafgard is a portable wireless device that alerts people in an emergency. It works by placing the vibration pad underneath the sleeping person’s pillow or mattress. The pad vibrates at the sound of the alarm and awakens the person, so they can quickly get to safety without extra assistance or intrusion.

Babette said, “Most of our Deafgard customers are hotels. The owners and maintenance staff commonly require a solution to accommodate guests who are deaf or hard of hearing. We have been selling Deafgard for years as it’s reliable and easy to use and helps hotels comply with the Equality Act 2010.”

The Outcome

  • Established demand for Deafgard from The Safety Centre’s customer base.
  • Beneficial working relationship with Fireco.

Deafgard has proven to be a profitable, simple, and popular product for The Safety Centre.
