Baffin Technology launches transportable paediatric seating system
Mobility equipment supplier Baffin Technology Systems has announced the launch of the Travel SIT, a transportable seating system designed to stabilise a child when in a variety of sitting and lying positions.
Thanks to the Travel SIT, families can now enjoy trips to friends or relatives, meals out and holidays relaxed in the knowledge they now have a transportable seating system which will ensure their child can sit in comfort and be supported at all times.
Marzena Komisarczuk, the founder of Baffin Technology Systems, said: “I believe that the Travel SIT is a fantastic addition to our growing product portfolio.
“We are always looking for new solutions that will help children live as independently as possible and the Travel SIT certainly helps us to achieve this. We previewed the Travel SIT at the recent Kidz to Adultz event in Manchester and the reaction and positive feedback it received was amazing”.
The Travel SIT’s back rest is made up of four adjustable trunk supports which work in conjunction with two safety belts and a anatomical headrest to support the child. The seat itself consists of six supports which stabilise the child and can be adjusted to the width of the seat.
Additional features include an adaptable abductor to assist with lower limb abduction, pelvic belts and a lounger frame which enables the Travel SIT to be used at ground level.
Available in sizes small and medium with a height of 70cm to 105cm and 95cm to 125cm respectively, the Travel SIT is ideal for most small children. Weighing just 3.7kg, the Travel SIT can be effortlessly set up in under 30 seconds and when not in use it can be stored and carried in its own lightweight backpack making it extremely user friendly.
Recently, Baffin Technology Systems exhibited several examples from its portfolio of paediatric equipment at the Kidz to Adultz North event in Manchester.
