Wheelchair cushion made from sheep's wool – for extra seat and back support
This wheelchair cushion made from 100% Texel sheep's wool provides immediate extra seat and back support during prolonged sitting. Wool ventilates, distributes pressure better and keeps the back and seat pleasantly warm and dry.
Prolonged sitting in a wheelchair or mobility scooter can put pressure on the seat, lower back and tailbone. This wheelchair insert cushion made from natural Texel sheep's wool provides a soft, resilient layer that distributes pressure better and offers greater seating comfort. The cushion consists of a seat and back section in one, supporting your entire posture.
Sheep's wool is known for its heat and moisture-regulating properties: it feels cosy and warm in winter and stays airy in summer. Ideal for everyday use, even if you sit a lot or are sensitive to pressure in certain areas.
