AERIS Aligna Wheelchair

The AERIS Aligna is a manual wheelchair built for both individual users and healthcare environments, combining a sturdy aluminium frame with a relaxed seating style aimed at premium comfort over extended periods of use. It is fully crash tested to a maximum weight capacity of 140kg, and its waterproof upholstery is designed to be durable and easy to wipe down, which suits facilities that need to maintain hygiene standards between users. The Aligna is highly configurable: push handles, backrest, armrests, calf pads, leg rests, footplates and anti-tip wheels can all be adjusted, allowing carers and clinicians to fine-tune the chair to a resident's changing needs rather than replacing the chair entirely. Both the seat and back cushions are padded, contoured and removable, with optional pressure-care upgrades available for users at higher risk of skin breakdown. Push-to-lock wheel brakes are paired with attendant-operated drum brakes, giving an extra layer of safety when the chair is being managed on ramps or slopes. Solid front castors resist punctures in busy facility settings, while quick-release rear wheels simplify transport, cleaning and storage. The overall package — adjustable geometry, durable wipeable upholstery, dual braking systems and a tested weight rating — makes the AERIS Aligna well suited to aged care, hospital and rehabilitation settings, as well as home users who want a comfortable, adaptable everyday wheelchair.
