New Wool Technology in Australia has created this new range of remarkable quality products. These products, called Hospital Wool Fleece, have to be seen and used to be believed. If you closed your eyes and ran your fingers through this Fleece, you would swear it was a high quality medical sheepskin.

The very dense (1050 grams of wool per square metre) Merino Wool Pile provides excellent pressure reduction and moisture absorption..major causes of pressure sores. The Hospital Fleece Wheelchair Seat  Pad is large enough to cover the seat of most wheelchairs. it is 18" x 20 " = 46 cm x 51 cm.

This Merino Wool Seat Pad is made from 100% pure new Merino wool.

Benefits:

The Hospital Wool Fleece was created specifically for medical applications that required a more dense, non-linting, highly absorbant fabric. In a study done in the Infection Control Unit of the Sydney Adventist Hospital, nurses were very enthusiastic about the performance of Hospital Wool Fleece. Comments from nurses included increased patient comfort, reduction of pressure points and the alleviation of sweat rashes and itching. They agreed that Hospital Wool Fleece was clearly superior to the synthetic pads that they had been using.

Care:

The Hospital Wool Fleece is ideal for incontinent users because it is "Machine Wash and Dry", making it an easy care product. Wool will absorb an amount of water up to 33% of the weight of the wool, without feeling wet. This moisture is wicked away, keeping the user dry and comfortable. The Hospital Wool Fleece  offers excellent pressure reduction and improved comfort.
