Comfortable air cushion
“We started using the Equazone as it offered so many positives being a very high risk air cushion as well as being really stable and very cost effective. After having it on contract for a period of time it became apparent it could do more than we originally though so now it has replaced other foam and gel cushions on our matrix.”
