The Etac manual transfer products are developed according to the principles that rely
on the natural pattern of movement, weight transfer, knowledge about friction points and ethics.
A transfer board is intended to bridge short gaps when performing seat to seat transfers.
The board's low friction upper surface allows the user to transfer either independently or with assistance.
Transfer boards can be used when transferring between bed and wheelchair / shower chair, between wheelchair / chair / commode chair or to and from the car.

Etac 3B–Board
The Etac 3B–Board is a stable and simple transfer board with a traditional curved shape.
The board can be placed either curve forward or curve backward depending on the transfer situation and surrounding obstacles.
The 3B–Board's length allows transfer across wider gaps. (e.g. in and out of a car)
The Etac Butterfly is a long, wide and stable transfer board.
It has cut outs for positioning against the wheel of the wheelchair and non-slip pads on the underside,
which allows for good positioning and to help prevent it from sliding out of place.
The Etac Butterfly has a larger sitting and sliding area, which is helpful when the transfer needs to be made in short movements.
The Etac Butterfly can be used with the special Butterfly GlideWing, which is mounted on the board.
The Glide Wing slides along the board and provides an additional sliding function during the entire transfer.
