Product Update

The PRM-Lift 2.0 finished development and is now available for sale!

Developed in close collaboration with leading aviation partners, the 2.0 version of the PRM-Lift reflects extensive real-world feedback from cabin crews and accessibility specialists. Every detail was refined with the goal to enhance both passenger comfort and staff ergonomics while meeting the high safety and operational standards of modern air travel.

September 30, 2025 – The PRM-Lift 2.0 is an advanced electric and ergonomic lifting system designed to ensure safe, efficient, and dignified transfers of passengers with reduced mobility inside the aircraft cabin. It is the successor to the original PRM-Lift, which met the growing demand for ECAC-conform passenger seating solutions but also had room for improvement. A major upgrade the PRM-Lift 2.0 provides is its flexibility in dimensions. It features an adaptable design in length, width, and wheelbase, allowing it to match most, if not all, modern aircraft seats and even business class pods. It is also fully electric and can be operated with a remote controller, removing the need for manual adjustments.

Equipped with a hot-swappable battery, an integrated failsafe system, and track-and-trace compatibility, the PRM-Lift 2.0 is engineered to be a future-proof solution for airlines and ground service providers seeking to elevate their accessibility standards. By listening closely to our partners and the people who use our equipment, we’ve been able to deliver a solution that truly raises the bar for safety, dignity, and ease of use.

Special Mobility views the PRM-Lift 2.0 as a key step toward a more inclusive aviation industry that empowers both passengers and staff through smart, human-centered design. If you like more information, visit its product page for everything you need to know.
