Mercury 300
A cushion designed for high risk users, with particular emphasis on the I.T. area, and possibly needing some degree of posture control without inhibiting the transferral process.
Sizes: 15”x16”, 16”x16”, 17”x17”, 18”x16”, 18”x17”, 20”x18”. All cushions are 3 ½” in thickness. Custom-made sizes available.
Cover: A Spacer cover is issued as standard equipment, chosen for its superior air circulation and comfort, trimmed with colour coded plum piping for easy identification and smart appearance. The side banding is constructed using vapour permeable material on a non slip base for added security. It incorporates a high quality zip with highly visible bright yellow slider for easy location and usage, concealed for increased clinical performance. A vapour permeable thermo plastic interliner is included as standard. All relevant safety, care and directional information is printed on the rear of the cover in bold print.
Foam Insert: Constructed in a multi layer format with each material chosen for its particular properties: a cold cured foam base for its high resilience, durability and support; a slow memory overlay for its reduction in interface pressure and protection; and particular attention paid to the I.T. area with the inclusion of a high performance slow memory foam manufactured specifically for this application. All the layers are integrated into a low profile product with built in adduction and abduction.
