Action Products are used in hospitals, long-term care facilities, on home beds, and in wheelchairs. The key material in all of these products is Akton® dry polymer, a soft polymer developed in 1970. It is a wondrous material, a product of modern chemistry. It looks and feels like a gel, but is more body friendly and carries a longer warranty.

• AKTON polymer won't leak, flow, or bottom out, and it is tissue equivalent. It moves with patients, not against them, to reduce pressure and shear, the two leading causes of pressure sores.
• AKTON polymer does not require kneading or pumping.
• AKTON polymer is also radiolucent and easy to clean with standard disinfectant. It will not support microbiological growth, and it won't absorb body fluids or odors.
• If AKTON polymer is damaged, no problem because AKTON does not migrate, leak or deflate and is easily repaired by anyone with good dexterity.
• AKTON polymer is fire-rated as self-extinguishing.
