NCC has been selected as a finalist in the Med-Tech Innovation awards 2022. NCC’s collaboration with Motivation to design and manufacture a wheelchair seat pan made entirely from sustainable, green composite materials has been shortlisted in the Materials Innovation category.
The National Composites Centre (NCC) and Motivation have collaborated to manufacture a wheelchair seat pan concept made entirely from sustainable, green composite materials that are not only better for the environment but could significantly improve the quality of life for disabled people in developing countries. Developed using an affordable, bio-based composite material, this new wheelchair seat is lighter and more hygienic than the plywood equivalent, whilst providing reliable "built-in" postural control, both of which improve the quality of life for the user.
