Shower chair textile seat

Handicare’s freestanding Shower chair textile seat is an assistive device allowing the user to sit down safely and comfortably during showering or at the washbasin. The shower chair provides stable support for active users with weak legs, low stamina and/or poor balance and who require a little more support during sit-to-stand.

The freestanding Shower chair textile seat is available in two variants with different seat height.

Comfortable seat and backrest

The chair features a seat and a backrest which are designed to provide comfortable and ergonomic support. Both are made from a strong textile covering; a woven polyester with plastic coating, which is stretched tightly and firmly attached to the frame and which adapts to the body temperature during use. The covering is fully glued around and flush with the frame to facilitate sideways and standing transfers and provide for good hygiene.

Strong and practical armrests

Shower chair textile seat features strong and practical armrests designed to withstand a lot of load, including the sideways forces that are exerted during sideways transfers.The armrests offer comfortable support for the forearms while sitting and they are long enough to provide sustained support when standing up and sitting down. The armrests can be folded up individually, e.g. to facilitate a sideways transfers. When folded down, the armrest rests behind the backrest thereby preventing fingers, skin or hair from getting caught.
