With the new h u ggle<br />

the choice is yours<br />

At CareFlex, we have listened to industry and<br />

user feedback to make our <strong>Huggle</strong> chairs<br />

even better. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Huggle</strong> still offers the same<br />

high standards of quality, relaxing comfort<br />

and effectiveness in posture and pressure<br />

management but, because every child is<br />

different, we’ve re-designed our chair to offer<br />

more choice and support than ever before.<br />

Introducing the new h ggle,<br />

from CareFlex<br />

a<br />

b<br />

Designed to complement the more prescriptive<br />

posture management of activity chairs used in<br />

the classroom, the new <strong>Huggle</strong> is a single frame<br />

design that can be adapted for the unique<br />

needs of each child – it comes as standard<br />

in the open Sprite configuration, but can be<br />

adapted to the cocooning style of the Snuggle<br />

with the addition of the Snuggle sides<br />

accessory pack. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Huggle</strong>’s modern design<br />

is simple to set-up, easy to adjust and comes<br />

with an even wider range of accessories for the<br />

ultimate tailored fit.<br />

a<br />

b<br />

Sprite – provides a more open aspect<br />

for users with involuntary movements<br />

or who prefer greater visibility when seated<br />

Snuggle – the addition of the Snuggle<br />

sides accessory pack creates a more<br />

cocooning effect for the user, aiding<br />

feelings of security and comfort


Now with more flexibility,<br />

comfort and support<br />

• Single frame design<br />

Our new <strong>Huggle</strong> comes in one frame, with 2 sizes (Toddler for up to 5 years*,<br />

and Junior for up to 9 years*) and a host of enhanced accessories to provide<br />

the perfect set-up for the occupant. <strong>The</strong> new design offers more features and<br />

options as standard, but at the same great price.<br />

• Thoracic support<br />

We have introduced a new width adjustable thoracic lateral support system for<br />

the new <strong>Huggle</strong>. Effective management of the upper trunk posture is critical to<br />

help children develop and maintain control of their shoulder and head position –<br />

our easy-to-use system provides the ability to fine tune the user’s position<br />

as they grow or their needs change.<br />

• Adaptable sides – Sprite and Snuggle configurations<br />

Based on the open design of the previous Sprite model, the new <strong>Huggle</strong> can<br />

be easily adapted to the popular Snuggle set-up through the simple addition of<br />

the Snuggle sides accessory pack – providing more choice and flexibility in a<br />

single model.<br />

• Adjustable footplate or padded leg rest as standard<br />

To provide additional postural support we have included an adjustable footplate<br />

with slotted leg rest as standard on every new <strong>Huggle</strong>. For occupants not<br />

requiring a footplate, a leg rest pad made from Reflexions foam can be supplied<br />

instead for added pressure relief.<br />

* Average sizes<br />

Available in a choice of 30 fabric colours

control of headrest<br />

positioning.<br />

Offers soft support<br />

and simple lateral<br />

control to help stabilise<br />

head position without<br />

generating pressure to<br />

the back of the head<br />

that may stimulate<br />

Our improved<br />

adjustable laterals<br />

answer the issues of<br />

support pad thickness<br />

and placement with<br />

simple, tool-free width<br />

and height adjustment.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Snuggle sides<br />

quickly attach to the<br />

chair’s backboard<br />

to create a secure,<br />

with padded insides<br />

and edges.<br />

New contoured<br />

lumbar cushion<br />

Improved seat wedge<br />

leg rest pad<br />

New footplate with<br />

slotted leg rest pad<br />

Great for children who<br />

need some lateral<br />

control to keep them<br />

centred in the chair<br />

– our sculpted pads<br />

give gentle support to<br />

centralise the trunk.<br />

Now available in 50mm<br />

and 75mm thickness,<br />

the seat wedge helps<br />

keep the pelvis upright<br />

and prevents the<br />

child sliding forward<br />

in the chair.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Huggle</strong> leg rest pad<br />

now has a Reflexions<br />

foam core, providing<br />

additional protection for<br />

the heels and feet.<br />

whilst protecting the<br />

heels and feet.<br />
