Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Moulded Seat Insert (MSI)?
A Moulded Seat Insert (MSI) is a custom seating solution designed to provide a precise, anatomically shaped fit for the individual user. It is created from detailed body impressions or scans to provide targeted support, stability and pressure distribution.
How is an MSI custom-made?
An MSI is created by forming layers of foam over a mould to accurately reproduce the user’s individual shape and seating position. A plastic layer is then formed over the foam to create the finished insert.
Can pressure relief be incorporated into an MSI?
Yes. Pressure relief can be incorporated into the MSI as required. The seating can be individually shaped to support the user’s postural and pressure-care requirements.
What types of wheelchairs and seating can an MSI be used with?
MSI systems can be used with a range of seating and mobility equipment, including manual wheelchairs, power wheelchairs and buggies. They can also be used for shower, toileting and bathing seats.
Can an MSI be integrated into an existing wheelchair?
Yes. MSI systems are designed to be durable and easy to integrate with existing wheelchair frames. This allows a custom seating solution to be incorporated into an appropriate existing setup.
Are custom covers available for Moulded Seat Inserts?
Yes. Custom covers are manufactured to fit the individual surface shape of the MSI. This provides a finished seating solution that follows the contours of the moulded insert.
