Successful Order for More Than 400 Ambulance Stretchers

Ferno has secured a significant contract to supply over 400 Power X2 ambulance stretchers, together with the paradigm-shifting Power F2 fastener system, to Pafford Medical Services, operating in one of the largest regions in the U.S.

After an intensive testing and evaluation process, Ferno’s innovative solutions were selected as the future standard for patient handling equipment across Pafford’s ambulance fleet.

Pafford returns to Ferno after 8 years and the two parties have agreed a long-term partnership.

📌 With more than 350,000 responses annually, Paffords decision to transition their entire fleet to Ferno’s new PX2 and PF2 systems represents a major investment in safety, efficiency, and reliability.

📌 Combined with Ferno’s comprehensive service programs, advanced ergonomic design, and proven system quality, this change is expected to deliver substantial benefits — financially, operationally, and in reduced downtime for the ambulance fleet.

📌 The cross-compatibility between Ferno’s Power X2 stretchers and Power F2 fastener systems ensures a smooth transition with minimal downtime.

📌 Ferno’s flexible, customer-focused service program will further support Pafford’s widespread organization and demanding response operations.

“We ran a highly comprehensive RFP process, conducting thorough testing, visiting Ferno facilities to interrogate manufacturing and assembly, and reviewing in detail the future service network.

Thanks to innovations which avoid the need for operators to push or lift patients at any time, Pafford expects to reduce the number of back and shoulder injuries for operators, while further improving patient care due to fast and simple operations.

Following our evaluation Ferno products achieved the highest score in every single category. Couple this with the real spirit of partnership and people that was so key for us, we have 100% confidence that Ferno is the ideal choice for Pafford for years ahead.

This initiative is going to improve measurable safety outcomes for crews and patients alike, while maintaining fiscal responsibility.”

- Clay Hobbs, Chief Operating Officer at Pafford

"We’re absolutely thrilled to be trusted by an industry leader like Pafford to protect their operators and patients with our powered stretchers and fastening systems.

Up to 100% more battery power
Significantly greater access for bariatric patients
