Fusion Custom Built System

Fusion Custom Built System

Fusion custom-built wheelchair seating system

Fusion is a custom-built modular postural seating system designed for children and adults who need configurable support tailored around their individual seating requirements.

Developed using principles established within CAPS II, Fusion combines a lightweight framework with a wide choice of components, sizing options and customisation. This gives clinicians, rehabilitation engineers and wheelchair services flexibility to configure a system around posture, function, comfort and everyday use.

Fusion can be specified with a range of standard support options or customised further where individual need requires it. Custom-contoured cushioning can also be incorporated to provide a more individualised seating surface.

The system is manufactured to the measurements and requirements agreed through the prescription process, helping create a practical seating solution that reflects both the clinical aims and the equipment it will be used with.

Order Process

We recommend contacting Active Design before completing the Fusion prescription form.

Starting with a conversation allows our team to understand the individual’s postural and functional needs, the intended wheelbase and environment, and whether standard Fusion components or further customisation may be appropriate.

The Fusion prescription form can then be used to capture the agreed measurements, components and configuration.

The process usually involves:

1.       Discussing the individual’s seating needs and clinical aims with Active Design

2.       Confirming measurements, wheelbase and intended use

3.       Selecting the required seating and postural support components

4.       Identifying any custom-contoured cushioning requirements

5.       Confirming component sizes and adjustment requirements

6.       Specifying custom component sizes where needed

7.       Providing a drawing or further detail where a fully custom component is required

Once the prescription information is received, the Active Design team can review the proposed configuration and provide guidance where required before manufacture.

Starting the process together helps make sure the specification reflects the individual, the clinical aims and the practical requirements of the complete seating system.
