DESCHAMPS EvPath™ solutions are dedicated to emergency access operations. Based on the well-known Mobi-mat® heavy-duty fabric patented the EvPath™ is an efficient way to set up a firm temporary walkway at the bottom of evacuation slides or underneath aircraft wings to enhance access by passengers as well as Rescue and Firefighting Services.
Operational teams may use the mats to conduct subsequent operations such as temporary roadways or to move stairways. It also provides mobility in snow, mud and poor visibility conditions.
French Origin Guarantee
EvPath™ is certified French Origin Guarantee by an independent organism. "French Origin Guarantee is the only certification that certify the French origin of a product" (www.originefrancegarantie.fr).
This certificate makes its true value to the French know-how and ensures a real transparency unlike self-proclaimed formulas such as "made in France", "French manufacture" or also "French company". DESCHAMPS is a SME set up in Charente, France since 1860. It is here that are manufactured the access mats.
The unique know-how of our teams allows to guarantee a local manufacture and to avoid any component importations from low-cost countries. DESCHAMPS is also certified ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, guaranteeing the best level of quality and environmental considerations.
