Technology and functionality

✔ SmartCells™ – adaptive dynamic technology

The XXtra O2 pillow uses thousands of tiny air-filled cells (SmartCells™) intelligently arranged in a flexible design. These cells:

• moves independently to adapt to anatomical curves;

• distributes pressure evenly;

• reduce the risk of high pressure points;

• limits friction and cutting forces.

Being a pump-free structure, the cushion provides constant stability over time, without the need for complex maintenance or continuous manual adjustments.

✔ O2 design – optimal microclimate

The breathable O2 cover allows air to circulate efficiently, maintaining a comfortable temperature and reducing moisture build-up. This helps maintaining skin health by controlling the microclimate and preventing irritation.
