I-Touch V38 Kiosk Unit
Future Generation Services aim has always been to make its kiosks accessible to the majority of the general public. Our interactive kiosks are produced to be intuitive, user-friendly, durable, reliable and designed with access in mind.We have designed a range of kiosk models specifically to meet the requirements for accessibility, in accordance with the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, described on the Disability Rights Commission website www.drc-gb.org/thelaw/thedda.asp and as recommended in BS 8300:2001.

Below, we have listed a number of our standard kiosk models that have either been designed specifically with accessibility in mind or ones that fall under the requirements (please see images of the kiosk units on our website at www.kiosk.bnol.co.uk/kiosk_products/kiosklist.asp ).
