Use & Benefits

Custom mobility for growing explorers

With Ultra Lightweight technology, your child can engage with everyday activities with more ease. Ultra Lightweight Wheelchairs are configured to your child’s body, unique activites, and daily physical needs. The set up of your child’s chair helps to prevent shoulder injuries that can be associated with wheelchair use.

A lightweight, green and black Ultra-Light Wheelchair with large rear wheels and small front casters, viewed from a rear angle. The black seat and front footrest offer comfort and style for easy mobility.
Use

Ultra Lightweight Wheelchairs are best if your child spends most of his or her time in a wheelchair and is more active, has a long-term need for a wheelchair and can mostly self-propel.

Built to Last

Frames designed with lightweight material to allow for easy maneuvering for you and your child.

Travel-Friendly
A folding chair is heavier and has more moving parts to allow the chair to fold. A rigid chair has fewer moving parts and is lighter. Adjustments can be made to both types to address a certain amount of physical growth of your child. We’ll work with you to provide the best solution to meet your child’s unique needs.

Custom Comfort

Individually configured.

From frame and seating to wheels and color, your child’s chair can be completely customized to his or her body, needs and personal style.
