The AlbacMat is a flexible stretcher that can be used in an emergency to evacuate immobile people from such places as nursing homes, hospitals, airplanes, trains, pubs, clubs, schools and hotels in the event of a fire or similar emergency. The AlbacMat is a red nylon shroud bonded to a polycarbonate flexible board. The board allows the AlbacMat to glide over most types of surface including carpet, vinyl, concrete, bitumen and grass without building up heat. Two velcro straps restrain the patient while a foot pocket secures the feet.
