ABOUT SEATING MATTERS
Who are we?
Seating Matters Australia are specialists in clinical seating, customised mobility and hygiene solutions. We work with hospitals, aged care providers, occupational therapists, clinicians and NDIS participants to deliver equipment that improves safety, independence and quality of care.
Originally established as the Australian distributor for Seating Matters, the business has grown to encompass a broader portfolio of specialist brands.
In 2026, we launched Lopital Australia, expanding our offering to include patient hygiene and transfer solutions.
The Seating Matters Australia portfolio also encompasses select regional offerings, including Motion Wheelchairs in Victoria and exclusive distribution of Arjo products to the NDIS and Homecare sectors in NSW.
Across these brands, we provide clinical seating, fully customised wheelchairs, shower and toilet chairs, pressure care cushions, manual transfer aids and commodes, supported by hands-on clinical expertise.
Our Clinical Product Specialists work closely with each client to understand their individual needs, combining clinical assessment with practical, real-world insight. From initial assessment through to tailored recommendations, every solution is considered, personalised and evidence led.

Why Seating Matters?
Proven Clinical Outcomes
Our seating and hygiene solutions have been clinically proven to reduce falls and pressure injuries, enable earlier mobilisation, lower cost of care, and improve overall quality of life.
Support At Every Step
Our team of Clinical Product Specialists are dedicated to delivering hands-on support, from the first patient Product Assessment to delivery, setup, training and ongoing reviews.
The Experts in Clinical Seating and Mobility
We won’t claim to “do it all”. We can’t replace an occupational therapist or care team.
Where we excel is in clinical seating, customised mobility and hygiene solutions. This specialist focus allows us to deliver more considered, individualised support.
From therapeutic chairs and complex wheelchair customisations to hygiene and transfer equipment, we understand the day-to-day challenges faced by patients, caregivers and clinicians.
Our Clinical Product Specialists assess each person’s needs and deliver tailored recommendations across our full range. With expertise across all brands, every solution is connected, personalised and evidence led.
We also believe expertise should be shared. That’s why we offer free product assessments, webinars, resources and team training sessions to support clinicians and caregivers across Australia.
Clinical Outcomes, Not Just Equipment
Our solutions are designed to improve outcomes across seating, mobility and care environments.
Clinical research, trials and real-world application underpin everything we do.
Falls Prevention: Up to 100% reduction in falls and sliding through improved positioning and support.
Pressure Management: Significant reductions in pressure injuries through effective seating and postural alignment.
Early Mobilisation: Reduced time in bed and improved ability to mobilise, even for individuals with complex conditions.
Reduced Cost of Care: Lower care costs through fewer injuries, improved efficiency and reduced strain on care teams.
Improved Comfort & Quality of Life: Greater comfort, independence, communication and overall wellbeing.
We continue to work alongside global partners and clinical teams to ensure these outcomes are maintained, measured and continually improved.
Global Expertise, Delivered Locally
Everything we do is grounded in the pursuit of better care.
Through Seating Matters and Lopital, we draw on decades of research, product development and real-world clinical insight. Ongoing testing and refinement ensure every solution is proven, practical and continually evolving.
Locally, Motion Wheelchairs brings this to life through a curated portfolio of trusted products and a purpose-built seating clinic in Victoria.
The result is equipment that is both clinically proven and precisely tailored.
Support Through Every Step
We’re not just products. We’re people.
Our Clinical Product Specialists provide hands-on support across seating, mobility and hygiene solutions. From initial assessment and product trials through to delivery, setup, training and ongoing reviews, we ensure every solution is implemented with confidence.
Support is flexible and responsive, whether face-to-face, over the phone or through virtual training.
We also provide resources, education and CPD to support better care across teams and settings.
We give caregivers the means to care.
