June 11, 2026 — Koala Kare Products, a leader in changing stations for public use, is showcasing its latest inclusive adult changing station and commercial care solutions this week during the AIA Conference on Architecture & Design 2026, the industry’s premier annual gathering for architecture, engineering and construction.
In booth 1235, Koala Kare will highlight its adult changing stations, including a live, hands-on KB3000 unit for visitors to experience the design in action. An adult changing station is a wall-mounted platform with a height-adjustable surface designed to support individuals who need assistance for restroom use or changing. These devices are engineered with high weight capacities and powered lift systems to facilitate safe transfers from wheelchairs.
Koala Kare offers two options for adult changing stations: the KB3000, which is ideal for high-traffic environments such as airports, stadiums and transit hubs, and the KB2600, which is well suited for controlled and clinical environments, including offices, houses of worship and care facilities.
Koala Kare’s KB3000 Adult Changing Station is engineered with robust specifications to ensure safety, durability and ease of maintenance. Key safety and compliance features include a built-in battery backup for operation during power outages, dual height-adjustment buttons, a height-adjustable changing surface for safe transfers, and medical-grade certifications such as UL 962 and ISO 60601. The KB3000 features a 500-lb. (227 kg) capacity, IK10-rated impact resistance, and a crevice-free polyethylene surface that is IPX4 water resistant for easy cleaning and sanitizing. The durability of these units ensures a long-term facility investment, built to withstand continuous use.
The KB2600 Adult Changing Station is ideal for healthcare, office buildings, houses of worship and small schools. It offers powered height adjustment from as low as 13 11/16″ to as high as 37 13/32″ from the floor and supports up to 440 lb. (200 kg.), with a large changing surface that is 71″ wide by 31 1/2″ deep. The station is UL compliant, has a built-in back-up battery, and is IPX4 rated to withstand significant exposure to water without damage to its electrical components. It provides a durable, non-rip, high tension vinyl stretcher with comfortable hammocking effect, integrated drainage on the smooth vinyl surface for showering or hosing down, and hygienic wipeable surface. The frame is made of powder coated tubular steel.
Architects today have an imperative to design for the full spectrum of human needs, moving beyond minimal compliance to achieve true dignity in public spaces. The adult changing stations are essential components of a universal restroom, empowering architects to create spaces that are truly accessible and enduring.
