Varilite Cushions

At VARILITE, our goal is to help people who use wheelchairs for mobility lead empowered, independent and connected lives. We strive to design effective, innovative postural support solutions. VARILITE systems are manufactured by the medical division of Cascade Designs, Inc. in Seattle, Washington and distributed globally. Our comprehensive family of seating and positioning systems includes cushions, back supports, hip belts, chest harnesses, ankle supports, and seating accessories.

VARILITE is the leader in Air-Foam Floatation wheelchair seat cushions and back supports. Air-Foam Floatation combines the best characteristics of air and foam to provide excellent pressure distribution, comfort and stability, all in an ultra-lightweight seat cushion. Air acts like a fluid and displaces under load to provide superior pressure distribution. Foam acts like a spring and compresses under load to provide support and conformation.
