Invacare America, known for manufacturing and distributing innovative home and long-term care medical products, announced the partnering of its divisions: Freedom Designs and Matrx, by Motion Concepts. The partnership between the divisions will deliver integrated manual wheelchair and seating solutions for Invacare America’s customers. The pairing combines Freedom Designs’ custom wheelchair expertise with Matrx’s advanced seating technology with the goal of creating a premier “on-chair” solution for personalized comfort and support.
“When crafting wheelchairs, the goal is not only to provide solutions to people with mobility challenges—it is to enhance their lives,” says Gavriela Guerrero, managing director of Freedom Designs. “Through this partnership, we can more effectively get products to customers that help empower individuals to move freely and comfortably in their daily lives.”
The Invacare partnership is expected to benefit both users and clinicians. According to the company, users will experience greater personalization and clinician-driven configurations that help elevate comfort and stability. And a streamlined ordering process will relieve clinicians of the burden of ordering various parts through separate transactions, enabling the use of a single order form, one purchase order, one invoice, and one delivery day—simplifying workflows and improving efficiency.
“This collaboration reinforces our commitment to delivering advanced, comprehensive mobility solutions that place users’ needs first,” says Judy Rowley, vice president of Matrx. “By increasing access to our innovative products, we can reach and support even more people who could benefit from these products.”
Matrx seating solutions will be listed on Freedom Designs’ fillable order form. They will also be available across the full Invacare America network—expanding access and strengthening the distribution of its products.
Freedom Designs, a division of Invacare America, has been crafting custom wheelchairs and adaptive seating systems since 1981. Based in Simi Valley, California, the company specializes in innovative, made-in-USA solutions that support individuals of all ages with mobility challenges. Freedom Designs serves clients across the U.S. and globally.
Matrx, by Motion Concepts, offers advanced wheelchair seating and positioning solutions designed for optimal support, comfort, and skin protection. Engineered with clinical insight and ergonomic design, Matrx products—including back supports, cushions, and headrests—are compatible with both power and manual wheelchairs. As part of the Invacare America family, Matrx delivers high-performance seating to help enhance posture, mobility, and daily living.
Rowley adds, “We invite clinicians, providers, and stakeholders to explore these new integrated offerings and join us in maximizing patient outcomes through better mobility and seating care.”
