A versatile, variable-height bathing system designed for intensive use in care homes and hospitals.


Designed specifically for high-traffic wet environments, the Gentona is fully height adjustable and comes with powered transfer seat to deliver exceptional levels of care. With its energy-efficient keyhole shape and a variety of water-saving features, this versatile bathing system is designed to deliver high levels of performance yet it is still extremely economical to run.


Being height adjustable, the Gentona ensures a safe, comfortable working height for care staff, and its easy-to-clean surfaces help to reduce the risk of cross-infection. The powered transfer seat lowers to a convenient height for a wheelchair or hoist access and gently moves the bather in and out of the bath.
