Geo-Matrix Hybrid cushion
The Geo-Matrix™ Hybrid cushion is often used to provide comfort for users who require gentle positioning and contouring with excellent pressure distribution and vibration control.
The cascading gel top layer increases comfort and reduces pressure behind the knees. The Geo-Matrix™ Hybrid is designed for moderate postural support and users at moderate risk for skin breakdown. It is also available in Low and Deep profiles.

Why Geo-Matrix?
Geo-Matrix™ wheelchair cushions are meticulously engineered for optimal comfort, skin protection, and durability—without the need for calibration or the risk of punctures and leaks. Their innovative gel and gel/foam layers distribute pressure evenly, enhancing blood flow and reducing peak pressure points to support wound healing and prevent skin breakdown. Designed for use at home, in hospitals, and in long-term care, these cushions simplify selection and care by removing guesswork, ensuring consistent comfort and peace of mind for users and caregivers alike.Worry Free Comfort!
Geo-Matrix™ gel’s closed cell construction ensures no risk of migration, leaking or oozing hazards posed by air or fluid filled products. Geo-Matrix™ has no risk for punctures, flattening, failingor inflation issues.Durability
Geo-Matrix™ gel is capable of stretching more then 10x it’s original size only to immediately rebound backto it’s starting shape / position. Geo-Matrix™ gel can withstand the most aggressive users with no risk of thegel losing it’s integrity.Pressure redistribution
Proven pressure redistribution through the Geo-Matrix™ gel’s columnar collapse. As the column walls collapse under peak pressure points, the neighbouring walls stretch to take on the pressure and expand it through a wider area, creating a larger “footprint” and eliminating peak pressure points. This, paired with the gel’s immensely immersive properties make Geo-Matrix™ a leader in preventing skin break down and healing existing ulcers.Comfort
TGeo-Matrix™ gel comes in a variety of firmness options , allowing for a comfortable feeling no matter the user’s preference.
Because Geo-Matrix™ products not only prevent wounds, but they also dampen vibration and manage microclimate, this means that Geo-Matrix™ users are experiencing more over all comfort and therefor are able to withstand longer sit times before requiring weight adjustment or transfers.
Easy to disinfect and wash
Geo-Matrix™ gel is non porous, so it will not absorb liquids. Feel free to use any (non-bleach) disinfectant on all gel components to eliminate all germs and bacteria!
Geo-Matrix™ gel can also be machine washed! The gel can also be submerged, scrubbed, and sprayed.
Vibration dampening
Many wheelchair users are exposed to Whole Body Vibration (WBV) every single day. WBV can pose serious health risks after prolonged exposure, including; fatigue, stomach problems, headaches, loss of balance and more. Geo-Matrix™ gel absorbs vibration and ultimately lessens the effects of WBV to the user.
Friction and shear reducing
Friction and shear forces are created when a surface is lacking in segmentation and therefore friction and shear wounds can occur. Luckily, Geo-Matrix™ gel has segmentation in every single gel sheet! Meaning significant prevention of friction and shear wounds.
Microclimate management
Geo-Matrix™ gel is not affected by outside temperatures. Meaning the gel will not freeze when cold, and will not become fluid when warmed. Geo-Matrix™ gel always remains 2 degrees below ambient temperature. Meaning Geo-Matrix™ gel achieves an ideal microclimate management system for the entire length of a user’s experience.Technical specifications
