This is the website of the Apollo project initiated by Paul de Livron.
One small step for man, one giant leap for those who don’t walk.

Serving people’s well-being

Apollo is the Greek god of healing and a certain kind of beauty.
Apollo Wooden Wheelchairs are designed to make people forget that they are medical equipment. Their aim is to boost the self-esteem of people who use manual wheelchairs by offering them made-to-measure, high-performance models that are particularly attractive and comfortable.
The Apollo wheelchairs are developed using an innovative manufacturing technique that makes it possible to envisage a wide range of wheelchairs covering all existing types and offering the possibility in the long term of developing low-tech models for manufacture in developing countries, for their own populations and using local wood resources.
