Why a lightweight wheelchair

Less weight. More life.

Aria's ultra-light frames cut the overall weight of the wheelchair significantly. That means easier pushing and easier transport – and an easier everyday life.

Easier to push

Less mass means less effort with every push – and less strain on shoulders and arms, day after day.

Easier to transport

Easier to lift into the car – by yourself or by a carer. PLIXA even folds to just 37 cm wide.*

Agile & responsive

A light, correctly set-up chair turns easily and responds instantly – at home, at work and outdoors.

Italian design

Clean lines and many colour and equipment options – a chair that expresses who you are.
