Bariatric Seating
Broda can build chairs with seat widths up to 760mm wide. They also customise seat depths, heights and back lengths.

Seat and Back for Bariatric chairs
Double weaved strapping on seat and back for chairs larger than 560mm.

When building chairs with seat widths greater than 560mm, Broda double weaves the strapping and uses two or more cylinders to better accommodate the weight in the chair for easy tilting and reclining. The increased seat width does not limit positioning capabilities.

The load capacity of all Broda chairs is a function of the casters. The 1225mm casters can each hold up to 100kg, and the 150mm casters can hold up to 150kg. The total weight capacity is usually based on three casters in case of uneven terrain.

Depending on the customisation, other modifications can be done to the chairs, such as changes to the padding, legrest, and footrest lengths and widths.

Customisation often involves several modifications to the frame of a chair as well as the padding. This means there may be additional costs and increased lead times for production.

* Wings are removable
* The Broda Comfort Tension Seating? "Suspension System" consisting of pressure relieving memory vinyl webbing. Each strap conforms individually to the patients' body, thus suspending the weight of the patient across multiple points. This strapping system eliminates any risk of patients experiencing discomfort from bottoming out (padded seat) or extra pressure from a sling type seat. Broda Comfort Tension Seating? also reduces heat and moisture build up that often leads to skin break down. Straps reset within 10 seconds.
With up to 18 of infinitely adjustable seat tilt, the Pedal Chair aids in preventing residents who foot propel from pulling themselves off the seat without the use of restraints. The ergonomic design maintains a proper foot on floor position while tilted. The tilt in space design allows infinite positioning in a constant amount of space.
