The right support for every movement
Original is the first flexible postural backrest capable of adapting to multiple needs.
Its modular structure allows for an endless series of modifications and millimetric adjustments that ensure it adapts perfectly to the user’s shape and needs. Original is made up of vertebrae and ribs just like the human skeleton. The vertebrae allow you to increase or reduce their length and follow a scoliotic curve, the ribs can be changed in position, tilted, bent and removed. Removable, machine-washable cushions ensure prolonged comfort when sitting.
Original is the result of more than 30 years experience of engineers and orthopaedic specialists and is designed to break down barriers.
Design, well-being and ease of use
We are convinced that the search for beauty is fundamental in the process of creating a product. The design, combined with the innovation and practicality of our products, has allowed us to obtain numerous awards in international competitions.
Among these, the Compasso d’Oro International Award in 2017 was yet another confirmation that the path we are following is the right one.
Height
4 Vertebrae / 5 Vertebrae /6 Vertebrae
Available in 3 different heights (4/5/6 vertebrae). The size must be chosen according to the user’s height, pathology and the amount of support needed. The low backrest is suitable for people with good torso control and balance, while the high backrest is designed for people who need more support. In the custom version, the backrest can be customised by adding or removing vertebrae to increase or decrease its height.
Size
Small / Medium / Large / Extra large
The backrest is available in 4 widths, Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large, from a minimum of 28 cm to a maximum of 45 cm. The ribs of the backrest are made of aluminium and can be moulded as required to conform perfectly to the user’s measurements. We recommend that you consider the size of the user’s T-shirt and select the corresponding backrest.
Fit
Standard / Contour
The backrest is available in two different fits depending on the support and containment needed according to the morphology and control of the user’s torso. The more restraining slats can be positioned higher or lower than the backrest and symmetrically or asymmetrically depending on requirements.
Adjustable wheelchair attachments
Rigid / Foldable
The backrest has different attachments depending on the type of wheelchair. There are 2 attachments available for folding wheelchairs, one consisting of a strap and one consisting of a crossbar to be attached to the backrest tubes of the wheelchair. In both cases, the backrest can be easily removed and the wheelchair folded. Two attachments are available for rigid frame wheelchairs.
