At Positech Innovation Inc, we have redefined comfort and ergonomics for wheelchair users with our Cirrus seat cushion

This cushion has been developed to provide optimum support, good body weight, distribution, pressure sore prevention and improved comfort for users.


Comfort and pressure sore prevention 

One of the Cirrus cushion's main objectives is to prevent pressure sores, a common problem among people who spend long hours in the same position. Pressure sores develop when prolonged pressure on the skin and underlying tissues reduces blood circulations, resulting in damage. 

The Cirrus cushion is designed with a multi-layer foam system incorporating a alveolar gel, allowing immersion of ischial, coccyx and trochanters. This technology reduces the shearing effect and pressure on the buttocks. 

Cirrus thus helps maintain optimal blood circulation and reduces the risk of developing bedsores over time. 


High-quality materials for optimum comfort and durability

When designing the Cirrus cushion, we took the time to select quality materials to guarantee superior comfort and durability.  

The foam we have chosen is designed to withstand prolonged use, while still being able to comform to the shape of the body without deforming over time. 

The alveolar gel is positioned to adapt to the user's body and provide optimum support for the ischium-sacral region. This ensures good immersion of the ischial and sacrum, while limiting slippage and optimizing user comfort. The shape of the alveolar gel plate allows maximum aire circulation and the gel has good elasticity, preventing skin irritation. 

The seat cushion cover is made from a breathable, antimicrobial, stretch and moisture-repellent fabric. It's also waterproof with a nylon contour and cushion base fitted with Velcro straps to hold the cushion in place. The cover is easily removable and washable, simplifying maintenance and guaranteeing good hygiene. 


Why choose Cirrus seat cushion?

  1. Pressure sore prevention : the contoured, multi-layer design with integrated alveolar gel helps reduce pressure on sensitive areas. 

  2. Optimum comfort and support : provide comfort and support for users with high levels of muscle atrophy.  

  3. Durable materials : designed with high-quality materials to guarantee long-lasting comfort. 

  4. Easy care : antimicrobial, waterproof, washable cover. 

  5. Versatility : fits all wheelchairs and is available in standard and custom sizes. 


At Positech Innovation, we have combined technology, comfort and ergonomics to create a cushion that improves the quality of life for people with reduced mobility and disabilities.
