You are active, constantly on the go, and always want to be mobile. Not only do you expect the best in positioning and support from a wheelchair cushion, you also want comfort and safety. But you do not want your mobility to be restricted, either. In that case, our Advantage is the ideal solution for you.

Whether it is a busy day or active leisure time – the Antidecubitus Wheelchair Cushion Advantage is the ideal companion in all situations. It has a water-resistant cover so that you are comfortable, inside and outside, no matter what you are doing. When function matters, one name says it all: Advantage.

Effective Relief for Sensitive Areas

The high-risk areas where a pressure sore (decubitus) can form quickly are optimally protected by innovative Floam cells. Floam is as adaptable as a gel-form liquid and as light as foam. That is, Floam increases seating stability by constantly adapting to your individual body contour. In addition, it reduces pressure stresses since your body weight is distributed over a larger area. The sensitive areas such as the ischial tuberosities are effectively relieved and pressure sores are prevented. At the same time, Floam reduces friction that can occur when you move while seated. Air can circulate unrestricted in the cushion so that your skin is protected against irritation. In lower-risk areas, a specially formed foam base ensures comfort and support.

Especially handy: With the Advantage, individual Floam cells can easily be replaced so that you can adapt the cushion to your current requirements without any problems. You are always seated in the ideal position – and of course, quite comfortably.
