BEETL. is a manual wheelchair with a standing support feature, to help caretakers to perform assisted transfers (AT) with ease. Performing assisted transfers can be a physical challenge for many, especially for home-carers without appropriate supportive devices. Many mainstream manual wheelchairs lack support features to perform AT efficiently. Carers are prone to musculoskeletal injuries as a result from performing AT for wheelchair users on a consistent basis. BEETL.'s design helps home-carers lift seated users with little physical exertion as possible.

BEETL. aims to provide a comfortable, safe lifestyle for both carers and wheelchair users.
