Tarta Prescriptive Seating – What Makes it So Special?

Stealth Products UK, Pride Quantum Technical’s prescriptive cushioning division, recently visited Lifestyle & Mobility’s flagship Basildon store to showcase an exciting product line. This is Tarta’s market-leading prescriptive seating solutions. In the above photo, Lenny, our Manual and Powerchair Specialist Assessor, gets to grips with the Tarta Original.

The Tarta Emys, seen to the right, is a premium piece of equipment ideal for the back of a lightweight active wheelchair. “Emys” as a name, references European pond turtles – appropriate for a strong, segmented design, originating in Italy. The image to the right gives a clear indication of how this highly adjustable back support functions. One reason why the Emys is such a standout design is the extraordinary versatility it offers for positioning. This is specialist technology and can hugely benefit users. It can give active wheelchair users a big boost in using their products for longer.

If someone is experiencing loss of core strength, or balance issues, this device is both strong and flexible enough to provide the support they need. Users will be comfortable too, thanks to the unique segmented padding.  The Emys system is endlessly and easily adjustable, making it a popular option within the Tarta prescriptive seating range.
