IETZ Power is highly successful in combining functionality with modularity. This means they can supply wheelchairs for any type of user and any environment, and that each one is fully adjustable Darren Legg in terms of both functionality and comfort, right down to the last detail. At the same time, the wheelchair’s design is always in perfect balance.

SANGO POWERED WHEELCHAIRS Every individual is different. And that is why every powered wheelchair needs to be different too. DIETZ Power succeeds in combining the uniformity required for keeping production speed low and service levels high with the modularity and adaptability the market needs. After first building a sturdy base version, DIETZ Power then set to work on developing different models of wheelchairs. This means that there is a suitable DIETZ Power wheelchair for most types of user – for anyone of light and average build, and for heavier users and children too. The wheelchairs can be adjusted to the user and to the particular environment, right down to the very last detail and, when needed, can be tailor made.

excellent support for the whole body. The SEGO seating systems and support elements provide the very best comfort under any conditions. And it goes without saying that the materials used are of the highest quality. As the seating system is so easy to adjust to size, it can also easily be readjusted when needed. This also makes it ideal for mounting segmented, foam carve and other specialist seating solutions. There are numerous options for the SANGO including a selection of different chassis, colours, wheel types, powered adjustments, seat and backrest cushions, legrests, armrests, headrests, trays and accessories.

SPECIALS As DIETZ Power wheelchairs are modular in design and offer a whole range of options, standard components go a long way towards meeting needs in most cases. If, however, an individual user still requires any additional adaptations, wheelchairs can be customised to order. In the 35 years the DIETZ Power developers have been working in this field, they have received numerous special requests. These often come from users who, due to their particular disability, require special controls or need unusual functionality or adaptations to be made to their wheelchair. Each day, a separate department within the company works on such special adaptations. The people in the adaptations team are all experts who know the standard products through and through, and therefore also know where space makes an adaptation possible. These ‘inventors’ do not give up until they find a safe and practicable solution.

We had one very clear goal in mind: to develop powered wheelchairs that are adaptable right down to the last detail
