Description

The first lightweight folding wheelchair to offer effective everyday posture support. An award winning Swiss design made with both the wheelchair user and the carer in mind. The patent pending Strongback technology provides an evolution of the standard wheelchair design.

Traditional wheelchairs can be uncomfortable to sit in, even for short periods of time. This discomfort can be caused by several problems resulting from poor posture.

The Strongback wheelchair has an ergonomic lumbar support integrated into the frame of the wheelchair, improving the seat angle and offering a curved supportive backrest. The seat angle aligns the pelvis for proper ergonomic posture and prevents slipping and slouching forwards. The seating surface moulds around the body so that circulation is improved and pressure reduced.

The Strongback wheelchair has also been designed with the carer in mind, folding in a matter of seconds and requiring minimal storage space. The backrest folds completely flat against the frame, as do the footrests which easily fold and lock out of harms way, no need to detach as per traditional wheelchair design. The push handles are spaced wide apart to offer the correct stance for maximum control when pushing. Puncture proof tyres and attendant controlled brakes are also included. It has a Lightweight aluminium frame which weights just 11.3kgs making it easier to lift and transport without back or muscle strain.

The Strongback is available in Small 16" and Standard 18” (40 and 45cm) seat widths and provides day long comfort for occupants weighing up to 18 stone (115kg)
