Wheelchair Seating and Mobility

CMS & ANSI / RESNA Wheelchair Testing

We have a full range testing facility for the testing of powered and manual wheelchairs as well as powered scooters.

We conduct testing to meet the reporting requirements for CMS / PDAC testing of Powered Wheelchairs and for FDA 510k disclosures. We can also conduct specific testing for any other legal or product liability related issues.

The RESNA Standards Committee on Wheelchairs (including Scooters) (WCS) operates under the RESNA Assistive Technology Standards Board (ATSB, formerly TSB) which is accredited by the American National Standards Institute - ANSI, a member body to the International Standards Organization - ISO.

Beneficial Designs manages the secretariat position of the RESNA Assistive Technology Standards Board (ATSB, formerly TSB).
