Matrx Elite Deep Back w/ SuperSoft Foam

The Invacare Matrx Elite Deep Back w/ SuperSoft Foam combines the enhanced lateral trunk support of the Matrx Elite Deep Back with upgraded foam designed for added comfort, immersion, and skin protection. Built for users who need more postural support than a standard contour backrest, this deep-contour version helps create a more secure seated position while still preserving shoulder and hip clearance for functional movement.

With its 6″ contour depth, the Elite Deep provides increased trunk stability and pelvic support for users who may lean, fatigue, or require more structured positioning throughout the day. The added SuperSoft foam creates a softer, more pressure-sensitive contact surface, helping improve comfort and skin protection during extended wheelchair use. Easy Set hardware allows precise positioning, while the breathable cover, oversized foam design, and removable lumbar pad support long-term comfort and daily function.

Deep Support with Enhanced Comfort

The Matrx Elite Deep Back w/ SuperSoft Foam is designed for users who need increased trunk stability but also require a softer, more forgiving support surface. Its deep 6″ contour helps provide added contact around the trunk, helping reduce unwanted leaning and improve postural control throughout the day.

The SuperSoft foam upgrade adds comfort and skin protection by improving immersion and reducing pressure sensitivity along the back support surface. This makes it especially useful for users who need deep contour positioning but may not tolerate firmer backrest surfaces well.

Lightweight Support for Active Users

The Elite Deep w/ SuperSoft Foam offers enhanced postural support without the bulky feel of some high-support backrests. Its lightweight shell design allows the backrest to provide stability while still supporting the movement needed for reaching, transfers, propulsion, and daily activities.

For users who need more support than the standard Elite Back but want added softness and comfort, this version provides a practical balance of positioning, protection, and function.

Easy Set Hardware & Positioning

The Elite Deep Back w/ SuperSoft Foam uses Easy Set hardware designed to simplify installation and adjustment. The hardware allows the backrest to be positioned for improved height, depth, and angle, helping match the backrest to the user’s posture, wheelchair frame, and support needs.

This adjustability allows providers to fine-tune the backrest for a more secure, comfortable, and functional seating setup.

Cover, Foam & Lumbar Support

The backrest includes a breathable, moisture-resistant cover designed for everyday wheelchair use. The oversized foam and cover overlap the shell edges to improve comfort and help protect the user from hard contact points around the shell.

The upgraded SuperSoft foam provides a cushioned, pressure-sensitive support surface, while the removable lumbar positioning pad allows additional lower-back support during setup.

Additional Positioning Options - Sold Separately

The Matrx Elite Back can be paired with optional lateral trunk supports to provide added midline stability, postural control, and upper-body support. Lateral supports are commonly used to help reduce leaning, improve alignment, and increase comfort for users who need more support than the backrest alone provides.

Available lateral support options include:

• Fixed Laterals: Provide stable, non-swing-away trunk support with vertical adjustment on the back shell
• Offset Fixed Laterals: Provide 3" of vertical pad placement adjustment and can be mounted higher or lower for customized support
• Swing-Away Laterals: Include a push-button swing-away release for easier transfers, dressing, and caregiver access
• Offset Swing-Away Laterals: Combine swing-away access with added vertical offset adjustment for higher or lower pad placement
• Lateral Support Pads: Available in multiple sizes for use with swing-away lateral hardware
