High Performance, Pressure Relief and Impact Absorption

SunMate cushions provide high impact energy absorption with soft pressure properties. It is the material of choice for the most demanding seating conditions: wheelchair, military aircraft, motorcycle, race car and more.

SunMate has slow spring-back. It contours to the body and slowly returns to its original shape once pressure is removed. SunMate’s open-cell structure maximizes airflow to reduce heat buildup, while its viscoelastic properties allow it to uniformly distribute pressure and absorb impact energy to alleviate sitting fatigue. SunMate is one of the most comfortable, versatile, and economical cushion materials on the market today.

Health Benefits of SunMate

  • Slow-flow body contouring provides uniform weight distribution for pressure relief.
  • Support capability alleviates fatigue from long-term sitting or lying down.
  • SunMate effectively absorbs 90% of normal-use impact energy, greatly reducing fatigue caused by sudden jolts or constant vibration.

Size and Support Ranges

  • Standard, custom, and bun sizes are available, as well as wedges and contoured cushions.
  • Ten pressure support levels accommodate any body weight or special weight-distribution need: XX-Soft, Extra-Soft, Soft, Medium-Soft, Medium, Medium-Firm, Firm, Extra-Firm, XX-Firm and Hard (T50E).
