Who are Lugicap products designed for?
The Lugicap range is designed for sports activities for people with reduced mobility. This means that anyone in a wheelchair or any facility catering for people with disabilities is likely to be interested in our sleds.
For an organization, having a Sled Lugicap becomes an opportunity to offer comfort and leisure activities to a public too often sidelined.
Lugicap equipment is designed for all facilities offering services and leisure activities for disabled people:
For disabled individuals
Our products Lugicap products are primarily designed for people with reduced mobility. These include children and adults with 3 or 4-wheel manual wheelchairs.
The company's motto is " access to leisure sports for all ". That's why we've developed equipment that enables disabled people in particular to take part in snow sports.
Whether it's on ice with your Lugicap Ice or Lugicap Ice Perf or on snow with your Lugicap Snowyou'll feel the pride of finally doing something you've been dreaming of for a long time.
The solution owes its reliability to the fact that the inventor of the Lugicap sleds, Frédéric Martinis himself quadriplegic.
It was he who came up with the idea of inventing a Sled, which would act as a support for his wheelchair, enabling him to take walks on snow or skate on ice. And so Lugicap was born.
For associations developing disabled sports
You are an association that works with people with reduced mobility to promote sports and leisure activities. So you know that it's not easy to find equipment that meets the specific needs of severely disabled people.
Lugicap sleds are perfectly suited to all 3- and 4-wheel manual wheelchairs.

With Sled Lugicap Snow, you can offer a complete range of activities for the whole family. Including a member in a wheelchair.
Lugicap Snow accepts all manual wheelchairs with 3 or 4 wheels. Adjustments are made easily with straps and stops.

- Offer a sit-ski service that your competitors don't provide
- Highlight your inclusive approach in your CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) report
