Pressure care
The NEST® Cushion provides even pressure distribution across the buttocks to support skin tissue health, matching – and often surpassing – many foam alternatives.
Movement & shear reduction
The unique core structure helps dissipate shear away from the skin. Its responsive “springiness” also makes transfers off the cushion easier for the occupant.
Skin microclimate management
Breathable cover and large internal air gaps allow heat and water vapour to escape – helping prevent build-up and maintaining a healthier skin microclimate.
Infection prevention & hygiene
The plastic polymer core has inherent microbiocidal properties that reduce bacterial accumulation. Both cover and core are machine washable; the core can be chemically or thermally disinfected and dries quickly.
Practical handling & capacity
Lightweight construction makes moving the cushion between seats easier. The 120 kg user weight limit suits a wide range of patients.
Eco-friendly
Designed for reuse and easy decontamination between patients to reduce waste. The core is recyclable at end of life – supporting institutional sustainability goals and lowering disposal to landfill.
