Basic Bariquin -A Bariquin is a 25st/350lb/159kg Bariatric (Obese-sized) Training Mannequin
A Bariquin, or ‘Barry’ as he is known, is a bariatric training mannequin that weighs 25 stones (that’s 350lbs or 159kgs), yet he can be carried by an individual -when not assembled.
Bariquins overcome the disadvantages that current mannequins have. They don’t require a team of trained people to haul the mannequin to and from the training area. Neither do they need filling with water (and emptying) in situ. Also, the price of the Bariquin will soon be recouped compared to when using a real life model -and Barry won’t get tired or embarrassed during training.
Such instruction is often delivered by a single trainer and the Bariquin has been designed around this central principle. Barry is made up of 15 weighted parts, a jacket plus the realistic looking head, hands and feet. His heaviest component is designed to be less than 16kgs -that’s much less than the weight of your flight suitcase. And with two handles stitched securely to the more substantial parts, they are easier to carry too.
What’s more, he’s been created and built in Britain and comes with a 12 months guarantee against material defects in design, material and workmanship. There’s also a 14 days returns policy.
(See our T&Cs for full details.)
Bariquins are available in two sets of features.
‘Barry‘ is shown immediately below right in the vehicle extrication training exercise. ‘Benny‘ is shown in the image to the left in a training exercise involving his removal from the first floor of a building where most of the stairs were taken out. Please note that the actual shades of the head, hands and feet of the Bariquins may vary from those shown below.
