Airways Development Launches Brand New Website


Source: PR Web

January 25, 2012

A fresh website went live Monday on airwaysdevelopment.com, and plans to expand the site are already underway. The site is launched shortly after the Company received 501(k) approval on their WaterPAP™ device and as sales begin for the new Capette™ product.

Airways Development specializes in respiratory support products for neonatal patients. The WaterPAP™ Valve is an essential component for setting up bubble CPAP, which delivers a constant controllable pressure in the patient’s respiratory tract and helps support underdeveloped lungs. The Capette™ is a revolutionary breathing tube support that not only is comfortable for patients, but incredibly easy for the nurses to use. Hospitals are known to improvise using rubber gloves or even safety pins with rubber bands to hold tubes in place, but with the Capette™ on the market those practices will become ancient history.

Jonathan Landis, web developer for airwaysdevelopment.com explains, "Providing detailed information and media on our products was an absolute priority for the Company, although a considerable amount of time and effort was also spent making sure the site has a clean look and is easy to navigate. Content is king, but I believe a user-friendly interface is almost equally as important." The site was developed using Joomla 1.7, and Landis is gearing up for the upgrade to Joomla 2.5 which is due out by February 10.

Future plans to expand the website coincide with current product development at Airways. "Eventually we would like e-commerce solutions, specifically for the Capette™ and future products. For example, parents with infants on ventilators in their home may be able to benefit from the Capette™, so our aim is to make it easily available for them," says Landis.

Please check back with airwaysdevelopment.com in the near future for announcements concerning new product developments and enhancements to the website itself.
