Disposable Slings

Disposable Hoist Slings Australia – Single-Use Slings for Infection Control

Safety and Mobility supplies disposable single-use hoist slings for hospitals, aged care facilities, and clinical settings where infection control requirements make reusable slings unsuitable or where client-dedicated slings are not practical. Disposable slings eliminate the risk of cross-infection between clients via shared sling equipment, a particular concern in outbreak situations, for immunocompromised patients, or in high-turnover acute settings where individual client sling allocation is not feasible.

Our disposable hoist sling range includes general purpose and hygiene (toileting) configurations in a range of sizes and weight capacities suited to standard adult transfers. Disposable slings are compatible with most major hoist spreader bar systems, contact our team to confirm compatibility with your existing equipment. We can supply in bulk for facility stock arrangements across Australia.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are disposable hoist slings as safe as reusable slings?
Quality disposable hoist slings are manufactured to the same safety and load-testing standards as reusable slings and are rated for a single full-capacity transfer. They should always be inspected before use and discarded after the transfer or if any damage or compromise is visible. As with all hoist slings, correct size selection and safe hoist operation practices apply.
