Handirack

Day to day life is becoming increasingly about convenience and enhancing busy lifestyles.  So having the easy and simple means to add additional load capacity to your car which in turn will save you time, effort and money must surely be a good thing.  It is for this reason and that more and more motorists are now embracing the award winning HandiRack.

The HandiRack, the world first inflatable roof rack, is a multi purpose portable load carrier that can be fitted and removed in just a matter of minutes.  It is suitable for 4-door and 2-door cars and when not in use it is so compact that it can be stored handily in the boot of the car.

The HandiRack has gained several awards for its innovative design and most recently in November 2006 it won the Smart Gadget category at the Good Housekeeping Institute Innovations of the Year Awards.  The judges commented that the HandiRack is thoughtfully designed on every level and is great for trips when your eyes prove bigger than your car boot!

Some examples of what the HandiRack can carry are as follows:

Ladders
DIY materials
Flat-pack furniture
Watersports equipment (surf & windsurf boards, canoes & kayaks etc.)
Winter sports equipment (snowboards etc.)
Outdoor & leisure gear
Holiday luggage
Impulse store purchases

The HandiRack offers all of the benefits of a traditional roof rack with none of the disadvantages.  Its universal fit means that it is very cost effective (the HandiRack is interchangeable between vehicles), and also more practical than conventional systems.  Whats more, the HandiRack is greener than alternative load carriers, which when not in use tend to be left on the car causing additional drag and therefore reducing fuel economy.

The HandiRack is immensely strong (it is constructed from an extremely durable dense-weave 420-denier nylon), totally safe, fully complies with European safety standard ISO/PAS 11154 and couldn't be easier to assemble.  The fitting straps pass through the car doors and the bars inflate in a matter of seconds using the supplied HandiPump.  The HandiRack can carry loads of up to 80kg (subject to individual vehicle manufacturers recommendations) and everything that you need is included.
