24-09-2026

Architects, specifiers, contractors and NHS facilities management teams will be heading to Stand F20 at this year’s Healthcare Estates, where Axis will introduce the groundbreaking Manusa Visio+ 125 to the UK market.

This automatic door features built-in Internet of Things technology, allowing cloud-connected control and remote management.

Healthcare Estates 2026

As the annual flagship event for the healthcare engineering, estates and facilities sector, Healthcare Estates provides the ideal setting to showcase the latest innovations for healthcare environments.

Axis Managing Director Rob Brunero described this year’s exhibition as “the perfect place to showcase these doors that combine world-class engineering with pioneering technology for cloud-connected control.”

Manusa and Axis

Axis is proud to be the exclusive UK distributor for Manusa, the Spanish manufacturer with a global reputation for innovation, technical expertise, sustainability, reliability and customer service.

These shared values make the partnership a strong fit for the UK healthcare sector.

These include a remote door management system, safe and flexible operation, high opening speed, energy-saving performance and an innovative, modern design.

See Axis Flo-Motion® doors in action too

Axis will also be exhibiting three fully operational doors from its own multi-award-winning Flo-Motion® range of low-friction manual sliding doors.

The range is innovated, designed and manufactured in the UK.

The three Flo-Motion® doors being showcased on Stand F20 are:

  • The Flo-Motion® Single Slide FO1, designed for limited structural openings where the door can slide over a glazed screen or wall.

  • The Flo-Motion® Telescopic T55, designed for areas where space is limited but the largest possible opening is required.

  • The new Flo-Motion® Telescopic T32, designed so two door panels can slide over a glazed screen or wall.

The fully glazed door range is also available with interstitial blinds, providing staff and patient visibility or privacy where required.

Another feature of the award-winning range is that the 10 most frequently specified Flo-Motion® doors all have Environmental Product Declarations from the Building Research Establishment.

These EPDs help Axis customers, including specifiers, architects and main contractors, meet increasing responsibilities for delivering buildings more sustainably.

Flo-Motion® doors have now been installed in more than 100 NHS hospitals across the UK and Ireland.

Axis is also proud to hold a place on the ProCure23 Recommended Suppliers List, giving customers confidence that the company is a trusted, experienced and expert partner for NHS new build, refurbishment and maintenance projects.
