Skylotec Conrest Kit: The Compact Solution for Confined Space Casualty Extraction
Rescuing an injured worker from a confined space—such as a wind turbine nacelle, industrial silo, or sewer shaft—presents unique challenges where standard rigid litters simply cannot fit. The Skylotec Conrest Kit is engineered specifically for these restricted environments. It combines a short, rigid spinal board with a comprehensive harness and strap system to stabilize the patient's head, spine, and pelvis while maintaining an ultra-compact profile. This allows rescue teams to maneuver the casualty through narrow manholes and tight vertical shafts that would be impossible with a traditional full-body stretcher.
Designed for rapid deployment, the Conrest system secures the patient quickly using color-coded webbing and robust Click-Lock buckles. Its integrated pelvic strap and leg loops ensure the patient remains securely suspended even during vertical lifts, preventing "suspension trauma" or slipping. The kit comes complete with a stabilizing attachment loop for vertical hoisting, a foot support that doubles as a restraint pouch, and a durable carrying bag, making it an essential component for any rope access or industrial rescue team's loadout.
Key Benefits:
- Confined Space Access: Ultra-compact design allows for the extraction of casualties through standard manholes and tight industrial openings where basket litters fail.
- Spinal Stabilization: Integrates a rigid short board to protect the patient's head, neck, and spine during transport, reducing the risk of further injury.
- Vertical Hoisting: Features a rated attachment point and secure harness system designed specifically for vertical lifting and lowering operations.
- Rapid Patient Packaging: Color-coded straps and quick-connect buckles allow rescuers to secure a victim in minutes, even in low-light or stressful conditions.
- Patient Security: Includes a specialized pelvic strap and leg support pouch to prevent the casualty from slipping out of the device during vertical maneuvers.
- Skid Plate Protection: The underside is equipped with a smooth, durable plastic skid plate to facilitate sliding over rough surfaces or ladder rungs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
Does the Skylotec CONREST stretcher meet EN 1497:2007 safety standards for rescue lifting?
Yes, the Skylotec CONREST is fully certified to EN 1497:2007, which is the European standard for rescue lifting harnesses and loops. It serves as a hybrid device that functions as both a patient immobilization stretcher and a lifting harness, ensuring legal compliance for work-at-height rescue plans. This certification confirms it has passed rigorous testing for dynamic strength and static load, providing safety officers with the necessary assurance for industrial or wind energy applications.
-
How does the "skid plate" design improve patient transport in confined spaces?
The CONREST features a solid, smooth plastic skid plate on the bottom that protects the textile components and the patient's spine from friction and impact during dragging operations. This rigid shell allows the stretcher to glide easily over rough grating, stairs, or through narrow manways where carrying is impossible. The skid plate's low profile ensures that the system does not snag on obstacles, significantly speeding up extraction times in tight confined space scenarios.
-
Can this stretcher be used for both vertical hoisting and horizontal dragging?
Absolutely, the CONREST is designed as a multi-modal transport system. It includes color-coded attachment points for vertical hoisting (lifting via the head straps) out of shafts or silos, as well as robust handles for horizontal carrying or dragging. Its slim design allows it to transition seamlessly from a vertical lift through a hatch to a horizontal carry once on a safe platform, eliminating the need to transfer the patient between different devices mid-rescue.
-
Is the CONREST kit compatible with standard spine boards or vacuum mattresses?
While the CONREST itself acts as a spinal immobilization device due to its rigid backplate and pelvic straps, it is generally designed to be a standalone rapid extraction tool rather than a carrier for other boards. Its form-fitting design wraps securely around the patient to minimize movement, often negating the need for a separate backboard in time-critical evacuations. However, for patients requiring absolute spinal rigidity (e.g., suspected c-spine trauma), it can be used in conjunction with a cervical collar, but space inside the "cocoon" for a full vacuum mattress would be very limited.
-
What is the maximum rated load capacity for patient extraction with this system?
The CONREST stretcher is rated for a Maximum Rated Load of 150 kg (approximately 330 lbs), which accommodates a fully equipped worker or a large patient. This capacity ensures it can handle the dynamic forces of a rescue hoist without compromising structural integrity. The system's robust webbing and buckle construction distributes this load evenly across the patient's body, preventing pressure points or harness trauma during suspension.
