A word from our clients

I also want to thank you all for my awesome “Australian Made” Pelican Pool Hoist. I sustained my spinal injury 37 years ago and back then I never imagined me needing a device to help me transfer into a pool, but way back then my shoulders were strong, young and injury free. My hoist allows me to transfer in and out of my pool and spa easily and independently but more importantly my hoist has given my shoulders a well-deserved rest.

Warrumbungle shire Council said Love these Pelicans, they really work better than anything I’ve worked with before. Such a great product, well done and thankyou.
