Protekt Ultra Bariatric Wheelchair Cushion
Proactive MedicalThe Protekt Ultra Bariatric Wheelchair Cushion by Proactive Medical Products is a heavy-duty molded skin protection and positioning cushion designed for larger users who need advanced pressure redistribution, pelvic stability, and everyday wheelchair comfort. Built with two layers of high-resilient foam, a gel-infused visco memory foam top layer, and a dual-compartment gel bladder, the Protekt Ultra Bariatric provides the comfort and immersion of a premium gel-foam cushion with the strength and sizing needed for bariatric seating.

A large-radius bottom helps the cushion work with both sling-seat and flat-seat wheelchairs, while the breathable, fluid-resistant stretch nylon cover and safety buckles support daily comfort, care, and secure placement.

Comfort, Pressure Relief & Positioning Support
Gel-Infused Visco Foam & Dual Gel Bladder
The Protekt Ultra Bariatric Cushion uses a gel-infused visco memory foam top layer to help conform to the user’s body, improve immersion, and support rapid heat dissipation. Beneath the foam, the dual-compartment gel bladder helps keep gel positioned where it is needed, reducing migration and helping maintain consistent pressure redistribution throughout daily use.
Molded Stability for Bariatric Seating
Unlike a basic flat cushion, the Protekt Ultra Bariatric includes molded positioning features to help support alignment and stability. Medial and lateral side supports help guide positioning, while trochanter cut-outs support pressure redistribution in key seated areas. The soft foam construction allows the pelvis to immerse into the cushion for added comfort and stability.
Versatile Fit for Sling or Flat Seats
The large-radius bottom allows the cushion to work with both sling-seat and flat-seat wheelchair surfaces, making it a versatile option for many heavy-duty and bariatric wheelchair configurations. Safety buckles help keep the cushion secured to the wheelchair seat, reducing unwanted shifting during transfers, transport, or routine mobility.
Breathable, Fluid-Resistant Cover
The Protekt Ultra Bariatric Cushion includes a stretch nylon cover designed for daily wheelchair use. The cover is breathable for comfort, fluid resistant for protection, and practical for routine care needs. This helps support moisture management while maintaining a comfortable seating surface for long-term use.
