The Ultimate Blanket - Introduction
The Ultimate Blanket was invented by Judith Pothier,a person with mobility disabilities, to use when traveling outside in her power wheelchair.
The double sided, non-pill fleece lining of The Ultimate Blanket is soft, warm and inviting, while the durable water-repellent exterior gives added confidence.
The Ultimate Blanket’s outer fabric is made of 600 denier polyester with a durable water-repellent urethane coating. What does this mean? 600 denier polyester is thread that has been twisted 600 times within a one inch area. This type of polyester is used in manufacturing luggage because of its strength and durability. Water-repellent fabrics are more effective than water-resistant fabrics and the urethane finish causes the water to make little beads when it hits the fabric rather than soaking through.
For people with disabilities who use wheelchairs, The Ultimate Blanket provides added relief from distressful cold and wet weather and immerses them into a depth of coziness.
It is our goal that every person who uses a wheelchair in their daily living would have the opportunity to experience a better quality of life and independence that The Ultimate Blanket provides.
