Vicair® Cushions

You can easily recognize a Vicair cushion by its tetrahedron shaped SmartCells. These form the basis of the Vicair technology, and they are filled with non-flowing air packaged in a unique way. In each cushion, you will find hundreds of these small packages of air – hundreds of SmartCells. SmartCells are virtually indestructible requiring few adjustments. All of the SmartCells together form layers within the compartments of these cushions, and do not migrate from their compartments, which provides you with additional stability. The SmartCells move with minimal friction, resembling a viscous fluid, enabling the cushion to adapt to the shape of your body. Additionally, SmartCells are able to conform individually to your body’s contours which creates pressure redistribution. Every compartment can also be adjusted to fit individual needs, or changing needs, by removing or adding SmartCells. Even while you are seated! Vicair cushions provide temperature and moisture regulation thanks to their open structure. When it comes to cushion care, Vicair cushions are fully machine washable and offer excellent micro-climate control to deal with hygiene related issues such as sweat and incontinence. The final result is a lightweight wheelchair cushion that provides pressure redistribution and minimal shear forces. A Vicair cushion provides you with maximum comfort, optimal support, and reduced risk of skin breakdown.
