Elasto-gel® Inserts

In many cases, clients who require special seating are also at risk for skin breakdown (pressure sores). This is generally caused by four factors: increased pressure, temperature build up, moisture and friction (shearing). In order to prevent skin breakdown, or in the case of existing skin breakdown, to promote healing, we must eliminate or significantly reduce the factors which cause it.

Elasto-gel® is a pure natural gel developed as a wound-care product. It is sold in thin sheets to be used as a wrap to promote the healing of serious wounds. This gel product may be incorporated into almost any of the Innovators products (as a customization) to prevent skin breakdown.

The product is a solid gel used raw with a soft Lycra or Soft Brushed Nylon cover. The gel provides excellent pressure relief, always remains 2 to 3 degrees below body temperature and reduces shearing.

The Elasto-gel® may be used under a breathable fabric cover, or, in cases of lower risk, may be used under vinyl for easier maintenance.


To order Gel Inserts
  • Almost all of our products may have Elasto-Gel added to them. The product then becomes custom pricing plus you need to add the appropriate gel insert price.
  • You may choose soft cloth (Brushed Nylon) or Vinyl coverings over the gel in your product.
