Matrx Protect - Infection Control Slipcover

The Invacare Matrx® Protect - Infection Control Slipcover is a removable, wipeable protective cover designed to add an extra layer of moisture and infection-control protection to wheelchair seating surfaces. Its shower-cap style design fits over the cushion and secures underneath with elastic, making it easy to apply, remove, clean, and replace as needed.

Designed for compatible Invacare Matrx cushions, the Matrx Protect Slipcover may also fit other wheelchair cushions with similar dimensions and profiles. This makes it a practical universal-style cushion cover option for users, caregivers, seating clinics, facilities, and shared-equipment environments where cleanliness and routine disinfection are especially important.

Made with wipeable Startex™ material and welded seams, the slipcover helps reduce fluid passage while supporting easier cleaning between uses. It can be wiped down with compatible disinfectants or removed for machine washing, making it a convenient solution for daily hygiene, moisture protection, and infection-control routines.

Protection, Cleaning & Fit

Added Protection for Cleaner Daily Seating

The Matrx Protect Slipcover is designed for users and care environments where cleanliness, moisture protection, and quick cover changes are important. By adding a removable, wipeable layer over the cushion surface, the slipcover helps make routine cleaning easier while protecting the underlying cushion cover from fluids and contaminants.

This can be especially helpful in long-term care facilities, clinical seating environments, shared wheelchair programs, and situations where equipment is cleaned frequently or used by multiple individuals.

Easy Cleaning & Infection-Control Support

The wipeable Startex™ surface supports routine cleaning between uses, while welded seams help reduce areas where fluids or contaminants can pass through. When deeper cleaning is needed, the slipcover can be removed from the cushion and machine washed for more thorough care.

The shower-cap style design makes the slipcover easy to remove and reinstall, helping users and caregivers maintain a cleaner seating surface without replacing the full cushion cover.

Compatibility & Fit

The Matrx Protect Slipcover is designed for compatible Invacare Matrx wheelchair cushions and is available in multiple sizes to match the cushion being covered. Its elastic shower-cap style fit may also work with other wheelchair cushions from different manufacturers when the cushion has similar dimensions and a compatible shape.

For best results, choose the slipcover size that matches the cushion’s width and depth. Fit on non-Matrx cushions may vary depending on cushion height, contouring, pommel shape, wedge design, leg troughs, and overall cushion profile.

This slipcover should not be considered a guaranteed universal fit for every wheelchair cushion, but it can be a useful universal-style option when dimensions and cushion shape are compatible.
