MATERIAL
. The VTEQ foam is a temperature and pressure sensitive material that shapes itself to the user's body to offer optimal support. This is to allow the user to rest in a natural position, with their posture fully supported.
. The foam contains a Healthguard? additive which makes the foam hypoallergenic. It is resistant to dust mites, bacteria, mould, mildew, fungi and odour causing germs.
STRUCTURE
They are available in two high density grades of visco-elastic foam: Standard or Premium.
COVER
Removable and washable. "Carflex" waterproof cover is available for some sizes.
Factors To Consider
All pressure reduction products must be monitored to prevent 'bottoming out'. This occurs when the user's weight bears down so hard on the product material that it is flattened and the bony parts are pressed against the surface below the cushion or mattress. Where bottoming out occurs even with correct use (eg correct inflation levels), a different product may need to be considered.
Standards
Some assistive technology needs to meet Australian or other standards. Standards may relate to materials, manufacturing and installation. Products that meet Australian or international standards will have written certification. To find out if a product meets Australian Standards ask the supplier to show you the certificate.
