Because Every Body is Different

Every wheelchair user is different, with their own individual needs and their own unique set of challenges.

A solid foundation is the base for a stable posture, requiring a cushion to support the user’s pelvis for their unique physical requirements. Which is exactly what the Constructa cushion does.

Our Most Anatomically Adaptable Cushion

The latest research shows that asymmetric limited hip flexion is closely linked to the development of other conditions, including pelvic obliquity, trunk asymmetry, scoliosis and windswept hip distortion.

A wheelchair cushion that can accommodate asymmetrical hip angles is able to maintain or improve posture over time, instead of contributing to the development of other postural conditions.

The Constructa system is a range of modular cushions which can adapt to accommodate complex postural needs for users of all ages. From simple seating requirements to the most challenging demands, the result is better seating which minimises pressure while maximising comfort.

Available in 14″ – 20″ Widths

An array of improved positioning features (including adjustable blocks for growth or asymmetry as well as adjustable contours for thigh and pelvic control) dramatically enhance the adjustment range.

A structured ischial well distributes and offloads pressure, adding to the comfort and overall experience for the user. This ability to provide complex custom solutions with off-the-shelf products means clinicians can quickly provide relief for users with a wide range of physical challenges, including…

  • Flexion limitations
  • Pelvic obliquities
  • Windsweeping
  • Abduction
  • Leg length discrepancies
