Robust foam construction

The XLella cushions are constructed using higher density foams to ensure the durability and longevity ion the cushion, allowing them to withstand a larger weight capacity whilst maintaining support and comfort over long periods of time. Specific foam construction differs from the regular Spex cushion models, easily visible by the change in colour and thickness. 

Spex XLella cushion with dual layer cover

Dual layer cover design to reduce chafing

Dual layer technology in the cushion cover reduces shear forces, combatting the likelihood of chafing and pressure injuries. With air-mesh side panels and moisture-wicking top surface fabric, build-up and the impacts of temperature are countered. Covers can be easily removed and refitted after laundering.

Developed specifically to accommodate larger body shapes, the ischial well geometry of the XLella cushion range has been refined to better suit the anatomy of bariatric users.
