Using a lightweight pressure cushion can promote mobility, and the AirLite Pressure Relief Cushion weighs in at just 1kg, while promising to promote stability and postural support. Despite its light weight, it loses none of its qualities, using Air Flotation technology in the form of a pre-set sealed component to ensure excellent, evenly distributed pressure relief.

Popular in the NHS and care industry, the AirLite Cushion promises to improve blood flow and reduce oedema, giving pressure ulcers the space and time to heal. The lightweight design and firm polyurethane contoured foam base ensure exceptional longevity, outlasting other pressure relief cushions.

Enhanced by Cushion Technology

The average height from the Trochanter to the bottom of the Ischial Tuberosities was 7.5cm and have since found that this is the perfect depth of envelopment if you can find a product that meets this. By combining this envelopment with a buoyancy mimicking effect in water you have the perfect pressure relief product. The AirLite does just that by using interconnected air cells to provide equal pressure across the entire cushion.

Lightweight design promotes mobility

The AirLite Pressure Cushion is incredibly lightweight, making it perfect for carrying around and increasing mobility. Despite this, the molded foam base promises excellent stability and support, providing the individual with easy, lightweight, and firm pressure support.
