Who Are We?An Australian company who has designed and

made wheelchairs for 20 years

What Are Electric Wheelchairs Used For?

Well, according to VicRoads:“Electric wheelchairs are generally designed for indoor use, but can also be suitable for outdoor use.”

What Is Wrong With That Statement?

Being able to go outside in an electric wheelchairs should not be seen as “an optional extra”

Enjoying the great outdoors should not be a luxury for the privileged few

This holds especially true in Australia

A Wheelchair Is Your Legs• Since I was 5 years old, 50% of my life has

been spent in my electric wheelchair• That’s 12 hours a day, every day

Why Are We Different?

Why Are We Different?• Our chairs are not confined to the footpath– All-terrain tyre options

• Products we make are tested in the real world• Our seating is modular and customisable– Every body is a different shape!

• After sales service, if it’s not working we fix it

It’s The Little Things• Our headlights are brighter than bright• 30 cm seat elevation• Custom rims, baby!

Counting the Cost• Cost is not just what you pay for upfront:– You can’t afford to have a wheelchair breakdown– Repairs for unreliable wheelchairs add up

• For many people, a day without a wheelchair is a day lost, it can mean being bedbound and isolated

VicRoads Again…“As a motorised mobility device user you would understand how important it is to plan your trip so you have enough charge in the battery.”

Up To 20 Km On A Single Charge

• Our high capacity batteries can run a half Marathon, every day, for years

• Plenty enough to go shopping, drive in to town and walk the dog – then do it all again tomorrow

The Generational Gap Young Adults Aren’t Kids, But Are

Different To Their Parents• Expect more• Do more• Want high quality• Want manufacturers to keep up with

technology and innovate

You Need a WheelchairThat Lasts

A 12-year-old kid gets an electric wheelchair• Soon after, puberty strikes!– Growth spurt!

The wheelchair isn’t supportive or comfortable anymore…
