Welcome to the website of WAVCA
Welcome to the website of WAVCA – the Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle Converters’ Association, the trade association for manufacturers of wheelchair accessible vehicles.
The UK market for WAVs is possibly the most advanced and vibrant market of its kind in Europe. Conversion manufacturing companies have been actively promoting improved mobility for wheelchair users for over 40 years. They have invested heavily in design, development and testing to ensure functionality, usability and safety standards are of the highest levels.
Levels of service from WAVCA members have been developed to ensure every customer need is met in a comprehensive and reassuring manner at pre-sale, sale and after sales. However, WAVCA recognises that for any industry providing a product or service continuous improvement is needed and expected. There is always room for improvement for our customers particularly when the product involved is as important as the family car.
Each WAVCA Member is committed to producing vehicles to the highest standard and delivering good value to our customers. Every WAVCA member company has signed up to a special Code of Practice and will shortly be working to a new UK standard, developed by WAVCA with BSi.
