Invacare launch new Matrx Libra cushion

CARDIFF, Wales - March 23, 2015 - PRLog -- The next generation cushion ‐ Superior comfort with a high level of protection and positioning

The new Matrx® Libra® cushion combines an anatomically contoured, high resilient foam base with a dual layered fluid overlay using Flo‐tech™ technology to provide optimal positioning and skin protection. Bringing together cutting edge design with innovative clinical features, this lightweight cushion has been designed with function, lifestyle, and protection in mind.

The best of both worlds
The foam base conforms and supports the personcomfortably for maximum pressure redistribution and stability, while the fluid sac counteracts the negative effects of pressure and shear. The unique nontemperature sensitive fluid sac removes the requirement for kneading or maintenance making this cushion ideal for anyone from active individuals to those with complex seating needs.

Cutting edge design

While the Matrx® Libra® fluid sac ensures maximum protection for bony prominences, the anatomically contoured foam base optimises pelvic support and positioning. What’s more, the durable, high resilient foam is treated with Ultra‐Fresh™ for added anti‐microbial and odour protection. Additional signature features such as a trochanteric shelf, rear cushion radius, mid‐line support and waterfall front edge make the Matrx® Libra® stand out from the rest.

Next generation lightweight design
The innovative foam construction together with the advanced design of a newlydeveloped fluid sac using Invacare’s Flo‐tech™ technology resulting in a considerably lighter in product weight compared to other high‐end Invacare® Matrx® Flo‐tech cushions.

Highly personalized

The Matrx® Libra® envelops the person for superior pressure redistribution, while bony prominences comfortably immerse into a dual‐layered fluid sac for optimal protection and shear reduction. The Matrx® Libra® comes with a range of accessories including front, side, tapered, and abductor wedges, as well as supplemental fluid packs for targeted protection and positioning, making the cushion adaptable for differing seating needs.
