Manufacturers

Well-designed products and spaces can increase independence and quality of life for older people and people with dementia. As our population ages, products and spaces will play a greater role in maintaining independence and health. 

DSDC has been working with manufacturers and the design industry for decades and has a wealth of experience working with organisations to support their project requirements. We do this through: 

 

  • Product Accreditation

    Using the latest research, DSDC assesses products to determine their suitability for people with dementia. A product accreditation can help specifiers and designers select products which adhere to dementia design principles.
