It has unbelievable tensile and compression strength and incredible durability, but these are not what make EquaGel™ special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIts most amazing feature is the column buckling. Simply put, column buckling refers to the way EquaGel™ behaves under weight. Each wall of gel is capable of supporting only a light load. When that threshold is exceeded, the wall of gel buckles into the hollow area between walls and passes the weight to the surrounding walls for support.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis “buckling and weight-passing” happens instantly and repeatedly until the maximum surface area of pressing weight is evenly supported by largely equalised pressure (hence our name, EquaPressure).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe peak pressure points of the ischial tuberosities and the coccyx\/sacrum buckle into the EquaGel™ feeling almost as if they are free floating within the cushion while the thighs and buttock of the user are supported.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach cushion also utilises a two-stage buckling approach. The top of the cushion has a small grid of gel that is extra sensitive to pressure needs. This is the comfort layer. This top layer buckles easily and allows the parts of a user that need support to sink into the lower layer (the support layer) while holding the rest of the user up in good posture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome of our cushions also feature a pelvic contour. This gentle contouring mimics the natural sitting shape and further distributes pressure away from sensitive areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EquaGel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47229267411122,"sku":"CE2004","price":469.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/6378\/7186\/files\/CE2004-copy-2.jpg?v=1774477188","url":"https:\/\/sbcm.au\/products\/equagel-general-16x16","provider":"SBCM - Sleep Breathe Care Mobility","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
