FlexFormTM Reduces Weight-Bearing Loads in At-Risk Areas. FlexFormTM allows clinicians and suppliers to assess
the seat surface from below; fine-tuning individual straps
as needed for spot-relief of at-risk high pressure areas.
The durable web straps are positioned to conform to the
user’s unique three-dimensional profile; ensuring maximum
pressure redistribution away from at-risk areas, while enabling
ventilation (heat & moisture dissipation) in the seat surface area.

• Pressure distribution
• Friction & shear
• Microclimate (moisture & temperature)
