Optima Plus Contour Back - Features and Benefits

The Optima Plus Contour (OPC) Back is ideal for users who need mid to upper thoracic or in-scapula support and posterior lateral support. Please note that the OPC Back will eventually replace the Nxt Support Contour Back and the Nxt Plus Contour Back which are now discontinued models. The depth adjustable contours of the new OPC is able to offer all the features and benefits of the old models. We will continue to send out the original nxt models until stock is no longer available, unless otherwise requested.

The nxt Seating Series provides a range of back support models, shapes and contours to provide posterior, posterior lateral and posterior deep lateral support. The OPC full body shape is designed to provide excellent support and comfort while enhancing the users natural range of motion. For optimal positioning of the pelvis, pelvic-lumbar support pads can be uniquely positioned to customise the fit for the user. The wide range of sizes and contours provides exceptional choice for support and comfort.
