Product description

Contemporary, modern styling, ultimate comfort and effortless functionality are at the heart of the Duo range of seating systems. 

The dynamic features of the Duo chair enable it to accommodate the changing needs of the individual whilst providing excellent postural control and comfort. 

Available in Major and Minor sizes both adults and children with complex seating needs can be accommodated.

For those individuals with limited movement there is an increased risk of developing an unconventional body shape and therefore if assistance can be provided to manage posture through a multi-positional seating system then the risk can be significantly reduced.

The Duo’s purpose is to provide the ultimate in positioning and postural management for those who are unable to maintain their body posture and require extra support.

The Duo range provides flexible adjustment and positioning opportunities with the choice of either manual gas action or electrically powered tilt-in-space and legrest elevation or indeed the option of Regulated Motion where the tilt-in-space movement continually changes.

Tilt-in-space is a unique pivoting system that provides a reclined resting position whilst maintaining posture and pelvic stability.  Weight can be distributed over a larger contact surface area reducing shearing forces on the skin, making it a simple yet effective way to combat the build up of pressure.

Furthermore the Duo range now has the option of different pressure relieving seat modules depending on individual user's pressure management requirements. From the highly advanced Intelli-Gel seat module for those at very high risk of developing pressure problems through to the Transflo Gel cushion and Reflexion foam seat modules for those at medium to high risk.Indeed the flexibility of the Duo range as with the majority of the specialist seating portfolio enables users to either integrate their own pressure relieving seat cushion into the seat module of the chair or apply a flat seat board upon which it can be effectively used.

The Duo is also available with a choice of backrest styles, Cushioned Waterfall or Sculpted Reflexion foam, to accommodate different postures and user preferences.

The removable arms facilitate easy side transference and the simplicity with which alterations can be made is completely tool-free and effortless.

Designed to meet the wide range of both user and carer needs, the Duo is the third generation in Kirton’s multi-positioning seating range.

Suggestion: The Duo is compatible with the H2O M2 Flexi-Tip
