FEMTO X / FEMTO S
New Lightness in Everyday Life – Foldable, Robust, and Thoughtfully Designed Down to the Last Detail
With the FEMTO X and FEMTO S, MEYRA expands the FEMTO family with two new models for active users who rely on a folding wheelchair – without compromising on design, functionality, or adaptability.
Whether with a fixed front frame (FEMTO X) or swing-away and removable leg supports (FEMTO S): Both models combine exceptionally low weight, high frame rigidity, and numerous clever design solutions. At the same time, they remain easy to handle, comfortable in use, and modern in appearance.
What unites all FEMTO models: a clean design, ergonomic lines, and the ability to tailor the wheelchair to individual needs – for daily life, leisure, and work.
FEMTO X
The FEMTO X features a fixed front frame and impresses with high driving stability and sporty performance. It is designed for users with a very active lifestyle who want to shape their mobility independently and confidently.
User profile
- For long-term and permanent care
- For spinal cord injuries
- Highly suitable for various conditions, including severely affected users
- For users without lower limb function (side transfers, propulsion via push rims)
- For very active wheelchair users, handbikers, and frequent travelers
FEMTO S
The FEMTO S comes with swing-away and removable leg supports – ideal for users seeking a flexible, everyday-appropriate wheelchair. The leg supports can even be operated without hand function, making the FEMTO S especially suitable for use in facilities or for neurological conditions.
User profile
- For long-term and permanent care
- Highly suitable for various conditions, including severely affected users
- For users with remaining walking or standing ability (transfers from standing position)
- For neurological conditions
INNOVATIVE FRAME DESIGN
Comfort that anticipates your needs – Technology that inspires.
Thanks to hydroformed frame tubes, FEMTO X and FEMTO S not only feature a modern look, but also offer maximum stability at minimal weight – starting at 9.5 kg ready to use. The compact construction and special geometry of the cross brace allow for smooth and parallel folding.
The transition from seat to frame is seamless, with no obstructive steps – making transfers significantly easier. The backrest angle is adjustable as standard, as are the caster fork angle and directional tracking – all without special tools.
An extra-wide center of gravity adjustment range (from -25 mm to +115 mm) allows precise adaptation to activity level and medical needs. Each seat depth corresponds to a specific frame length – for greater ergonomics and optimal positioning.
MODULAR DESIGN
For those who want to stay in control.
FEMTO X and S are ideal for users who value customization, independent transfers, and modern design. Their intuitive operation and tool-free adjustability also make them highly attractive for dealers and therapists.
Thanks to the modular concept, many components can be replaced quickly and easily. This not only simplifies service and customization at the medical supply store but also allows for easy conversion from FEMTO X to FEMTO S – and vice versa.
Of course, both models are crash-tested as standard – with no additional brackets required.
Jana and Maurice
A strong team for more inclusion
For the FEMTO campaign, we had the pleasure of working with Jana and Maurice, a sibling duo from near Limburg. Both live with Friedreich's ataxia, a rare genetic condition that gradually limits coordination and muscle strength.
Jana and Maurice are not only siblings but also a powerful team – with admirable openness, a great sense of humor, and a clear attitude toward mobility and participation.
