New Orbit rotating beds

New Orbit rotating beds from Theraposture

The Orbit 235 (Occupational Rotational Bed for Independent Transfers) is the most advanced, versatile and adaptable Rotating Bed available. These solutions are used by those with restricted mobility who struggle with bed transfers. The Orbit provides a proven and personalised, powered solution to getting in and out of bed safely whilst reducing the need for carers.

Developed in collaboration with Occupational Therapists and end users, the Orbit builds upon Theraposture’s understanding and experience as the market leader in Rotating Beds. This unique design delivers a product that is easy to re-issue as it can be reconfigured electronically and mechanically to match a wide variety of user heights, weights and body shapes. Effectively one bed can be used by patients from 4’10” to 6’6”.

Overall, it is proven to reduce care costs and represents the most sustainable sleeping solution in the world for enhanced independence or interdependence at home.
 

Orbit 235 launched at OT Show 2023

Building on the success of the Orbit 235, which was launched at the OT Show in 2023, the 2025 event offers the first opportunity to see and try the new models in the range – the Orbit 335 HD and Orbit 235X Divan. These two new Orbit models promise to revolutionise care and mobility for an even wider user group and can offer aesthetic choices.

The Orbit 335 HD has the same configurable and programming benefits as the Orbit 235:

New divan version of Orbit 235

The Orbit 235X is the new divan version of the Orbit 235 and is available as either a single or double
combination bed. It provides the same functionality and clinical benefits as the current Orbit 235 bed,
but with the added advantage of clients having aesthetic choices. It can be supplied with either an upholstered divan or a solid oak surround.

The Double Combination Orbit 235X allows couples to remain together in the same bed even if their
mobility requirements differ.
