Cargostore Worldwide has signed an exclusive global distribution agreement with Griffin Special Projects to bring the LiftaLoo portable welfare unit to the offshore energy market. The LiftaLoo enables a ‘one crew, one loo’ model by allowing teams to transport welfare facilities between structures.
Weighing 212kg and measuring 2200mm x 1092mm, the unit features a single LOLER-certified lifting point and is constructed from recyclable linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE). This design removes the need for aluminium framing, reducing both weight and corrosion risk. The shatter-resistant LLDPE shell is built to withstand high-impact handling in offshore environments.
The LiftaLoo provides hot water handwashing using a low-voltage rechargeable battery system, offering up to 224 hot washes per full charge at 40°C, in line with UK care sector standards. Each unit is equipped with welfare features that meet the Health and Safety Executive’s (HSE) highest guidelines.
Standard features include an HSE-compliant sink, towel and biodegradable sanitary bin provision, a patented magnetic-sealed toilet lid, raised toilet seat with ergonomic heel step, emergency-releasable lock, ventilation, coat hooks, solar-powered lighting (≥100 lux), and an optional water purification system to prevent stagnation and Legionella during extended offshore use.
The unit is fitted with an 87-litre sealed discharge tank, compliant with DIN 16194 and equipped with anti-leak technology. The tank is removable without the need for certified lifting equipment and accommodates up to 72 uses. The lifting point design lowers lifting height by 80cm and removes the need for complex rigging, enabling faster deployment between vessels and platforms.
