IndiGO has been designed for teenagers and adults with mild to moderate postural needs, who want to achieve enhanced independence from their chair. The user-operated brake, for instance, puts the user in control of applying and releasing the brakes without needing assistance, instantly giving them a sense of independence. The brake can be fitted to either the left-hand or right-hand side. 

IndiGO has two available back sizes; a low back and a high back.  The low back has been designed to enhance social integration and is best suited to a child with mild needs.  The high back is more appropriate for a child who may need a harness or extra physical support.

Indigo has the choice of two bases; the standard mobile base with a gas strut and manual operation or an optional electric mobile hi-lo base with a hand-held remote Our new optional electric hi-lo base allows for tool and stress-free height adjustments, increased user weights and is available on four of our most popular chairs; Brookfield, IndiGO, Samba and Strato (only available on Strato chair sizes 3 - 5).  It uses a powerful actuator providing a smooth lifting and descending motion using the easy to use hand-held remote.  The power box on the side allows for easy charging from any mains socket. Having the additional electric hi-lo makes transitions to various desk heights easy plus compliments multi-user environments.
