Applying tessellation method to create contours for seating and positioning
Spex has taken the concept of a tessellation, and applied this method to create contours for seating and positioning.
This system can be added to any back support from the Spex range for additional contouring behind the existing upholstery padding.
Easy and effective back support contouring: stack and configure each component!
- Upgrade Vigour, Manta or Spex back supports in order to maximise stability, positioning and seating tolerance.
- Different densities are colour coded for easy application.
 |
Blue Base Building Block | Firm density shape is used to build a firm foundation for the contouring.
The blue blocks are used to build a firm and stable foundation for contouring and to provide the body surface with sensory feedback to the position of the support. |
 |
White Intermediate Building Block | Medium density shape is used to build up shapes where positioning is required.
The white blocks are designed to layer and build shapes for tailored positioning. |
 |
Charcoal Overlay Block | Softer density shape is used for creating softer overlay over the previous blocks.
The charcoal blocks are used to enhance comfort by providing a softer foam density and smooth out the edges of the underlying building blocks. |
 |
Velcro fastening strips | These are used to smooth over the contours and also to hold it all together. |
Note: The colours of the foam blocks have recently changed. Previously the blue elements were the softest, grey elements were medium density, and the black elements were firmest density.
