Some of our models are ideal for getting into <strong>changing rooms<\/strong>, <strong>showers<\/strong> and <strong>foot baths<\/strong> and for getting around the pool, but are not suitable for immersion. <strong>Immersible pool seats<\/strong> are made from stainless steel, aluminium or 100% thermoplastic. They are <strong>resistant to chlorinated and salty water<\/strong> in swimming pools and spas, making them ideal for prolonged use in water.<\/p>\n<p>To make it easier for people with reduced mobility and disabilities to get into the water, we offer <strong>wheelchairs with balloon wheels<\/strong>, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/produit\/fauteuil-roulant-piscine-et-plage\/\">JOB<\/a> wheelchair. These special wheels increase the buoyancy of the wheelchair, making it easier to get in and out of the water. The use of these <strong>wheelchairs<\/strong> should be limited to pools with overflows. <\/p>\n<p>Finally, our range includes the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/produit\/fauteuil-de-baignade-piscine-et-plage-sofao\/\"><strong>SOFAO bathing chair,<\/strong><\/a> designed specifically for swimming.

These wheelchairs are generally fitted with <strong>handrails<\/strong>, enabling users to propel and steer themselves. These wheelchairs give people with reduced mobility a much-appreciated degree of independence, enabling them to move from changing rooms to pools without assistance.
