Kalogon’s Booster system.
Kalogon, manufacturer of smart seating systems, has expanded into the Australian market via a new partnership with Paragon Mobility, a Complex Rehab Technology provider in Queensland.
The agreement calls for Paragon Mobility to exclusively distribute Kalogon’s Booster system, an external controller that helps wheelchair riders to maintain optimal pressure levels in their single-cell air flotation seat cushions.
“Thanks to significant demand outside of the U.S., our partnership with Paragon enables us to expand our reach and bring the benefits of Booster to more people who need more reliable pressure management in their current wheelchair cushions,” said Tim Balz, Kalogon’s CEO and cofounder.
“Paragon has more than a decade of expertise in delivering positive outcomes for its clients in Australia, so they are a natural fit for bringing our technology to this new market.”
“Paragon prides itself on offering the most intelligent and innovative mobility products on the market, and Kalogon is leading the pack with groundbreaking seating products,” said David Fagan, Paragon Mobility’s managing director. “Booster by Kalogon will give our clients more flexibility with their current cushions and a greater sense of confidence as they move through life.”
The Booster system automatically detects leaks in wheelchair riders’ air cushions and provides automatic inflation upon discovering leaks. Via that process, Booster ensures that cushions maintain consistent air levels. Clinicians and wheelchair riders can use the Kalogon app to dial in their preferences.
Kalogon is based in Melbourne, Florida.
