High density polyethylene (HDPE) is used to manufacture the seat shell, selected for its high strength to density ratio and resistance to stress cracks. The shell is surrounded by an undrilled support frame, for additional support and strength. This combination makes it resistant to damage by even the most demanding users.

An integral liner is provided as standard. Additional removable liners can be used to maximise comfort and allows minor size adjustments, e.g. for growth.
Every quilted cover is made to the colour choice combination of the customer, manufactured from a pattern, created individually to match the unique shape of every seat. Made with 13mm thick padding to maximise comfort and provide a high quality finish.
