Hernik IPAI-MINI Special Needs Car Seat

Hernik IPAI-MINI – Special Needs Car Seat

The small allrounder | Rehabilitation car seat | Full European R129 approval

The IPAI-MINI is a modified car seat that can be individually adapted to the special needs of small children and equipped accordingly. It combines a compact footprint with the extensive postural support and accessory range of the Hernik IPAI family.

Because transfers are often a particular challenge for parents, an optional newly developed swivel mechanism allows a 90° rotation, making it much easier to place the child in the seat and fasten the harness. Aluminium thoracic supports adjust in width and height without tools – more room in winter and a close, supportive position in summer – and an integrated 5-point harness comes as standard.

The IPAI-MINI has successfully completed extensive crash testing to the R129/03 standard and holds full European approval with an E-number.

Specialist Assessment Recommended

The IPAI-MINI is a specialist rehabilitation car seat and should be selected and configured following an individual assessment. The appropriate colour, positioning supports and accessories will depend on the child's height, weight, physical presentation and postural requirements, as well as the vehicle in which the seat will be installed.
