Heat and moisture management A vented base design, contoured top foam, and a breathable spacer mesh fabric cover (detail at right) work together to help keep skin cool and dry. No fit-essential maintenance The Java Cushion offers enhanced sitting performance without the need for regular fit-essential maintenance — unlike the ongoing adjustments required to maintain fluid or air volumes in competitive cushion designs. Lower Pressures Significantly lower pressures were noted in the region of the ischial tuberosities, coccyx and sacrum. Greater sitting stability and function While conducting the pressure mapping study, Dr. Crane (Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Hartford, Connecticut) also measured sitting stability and discovered improved sitting stability on the Java Cushion as evidenced by significantly increased functional reach both to the left and right.

Lower tissue distortion Use of the Java Cushion resulted in nearly 50% less tissue compression at the ischial tuberosities than on an air cell cushion.

Cooler and dryer In a pilot study comparing the cooling abilities of the Java Cushion design to an air cell cushion, Evan Call of Weber State University documented Java Cushion’s superiority in managing heat and moisture.
