ROHO® SOFFLEX® 2 Mattress Overlay System
The ROHO Group, manufacturer of support surface products for medical and consumer applications, is introducing a new non-powered ROHO® SOFFLEX® 2 Mattress Overlay System, designed for individuals who require skin protection.
The SOFFLEX 2 Mattress Overlay System provides the same effective ROHO® Shape Fitting Technology® pressure redistribution known throughout the industry. The SOFFLEX 2 is designed to meet the needs of individuals who require skin/soft tissue protection or other medical needs. It has three sections to conform to the individual’s body shape, size and needs. The three non-powered sections easily snap together to form a complete mattress overlay.
“SOFFLEX 2 represents the first of a new generation of support surfaces coming from ROHO that use new materials science to provide the same ROHO® quality,” Sr. VP of Sales and Business Development, Pat Chelf said.
Made from flame-retardant polyurethane, the new SOFFLEX 2 only weighs 6.5 pounds (2.9 kilograms) and is 36 inches (91.5 centimeters) wide by 81.75 inches (207.5 centimeters) long by 3.5 inches (9 centimeters) tall.
The SOFFLEX 2 comes with a hand inflation pump, operating instructions and a repair kit. It also has two cover options: ROHO® Reusable Mattress Overlay System Cover or ROHO® Mattress Overlay Enclosure Cover. The SOFFLEX 2 has an 18-month limited warranty and has a Medicare Part B HCPCS code of E0371 Group II Support Surfaces.
The ROHO Group specializes in Shape Fitting Technology®, manufacturing cushioning and mattress products for medical applications as well as for recreational and commercial vehicle use.
