Heavy duty wheelchairs need to be strong and sturdy to keep you safe and comfortable, and that’s exactly what we had in mind with our design features.
Our bariatric wheelchair frames are constructed from strong materials such as carbon steel, in the case of the Explorer, or aluminium, like the wheelchairs in our proLite VOLAR 10 line. They feature reinforced joints which help to ensure that the wheelchair won’t collapse, fold, or twist under the pressure of everyday use.
If a carer or loved one assists you in a transit chair, our transit models are designed with ergonomic push handles and cushioned tyres. These make it much more comfortable and convenient to push across longer distances.
That comfort isn’t just reserved for carers, though. Many of our self-propelled and transit models, such as the proLite Volar 10 Comfort Self Propelled and the Ergo Pro Transit, feature padded backs and seats to ease pressure when you’re spending longer stints in your wheelchair.
If you need a bit more support, adding a gel wheelchair cushion is a great way to promote good posture and alleviate sores. As our Occupational Therapist, Natasha Bruce-Jones, says “Cushions are an essential part of seated comfort for everyone”.
