Designed in a tubular form to slide smoothly without fabric bunching. Opting for a tubular slide sheet is time and cost-efficient, as you only need to use one slide sheet. Ideal for community manual handlers. Available in various sizes to suit every patient care need. Our small slide sheet is suitable for repositioning patients on a chair.

Key features

Effortless patient movement – Silicone coating allows caregivers to reposition patients easily, reducing strain and improving safety.

Cost-effective and sustainable – Built for repeated use, our slide sheets can save on costs in the long term.

Infection-control ready – Safe to wash at high temperatures; avoid bleach/softener to maintain silicone effectiveness.

Slide sheets are intended for sliding, not lifting. Machine wash at high (thermal disinfection) temperatures after each use—avoid bleach and fabric softeners to preserve silicone performance. Full training is recommended to maximise ergonomic benefits.

For more manual handling equipment, we also offer patient-specific slide sheets, slide sheets with handles, and transfer sheets for safe patient transfers. We also offer patient handling accessories to assist with smooth and comfortable patient handling.

If you'd like to see our patient handling range in use, you can watch a full range of useful videos that demonstrate how each slide sheet can be used. The videos cover various care scenarios.
