Scewo BRO is a self-balancing, stair-climbing electric wheelchair on two wheels that is controlled with a one-handed joystick without requiring trunk stability. Thanks to its two large wheels, it offers safe and agile mobility across a variety of surfaces.

Scewo GO drives on six wheels and offers the classic driving feel of an electric wheelchair. The stair climber is available as an option and can be retrofitted later if needed, allowing GO to adapt to changing mobility needs, for example in the case of progressive conditions.

Thanks to intelligent stair-climbing technology with lane-keeping assistance, BRO and GO can independently overcome a variety of obstacles, reducing the need for structural modifications to buildings.

The ability to communicate at eye level, combined with the increased reach provided by the height adjustment mode, supports greater social participation in everyday life.

Scewo electric wheelchairs can reduce the need for structural adaptations at home, at work, or in educational settings. In addition, they can help reduce the financial impact associated with relying on a caregiver.

Both Scewo BRO and GO have a German medical aid number, which is required when applying for funding through an insurance provider.

In Switzerland, Scewo GO is officially listed with Disability Insurance (IV), making it eligible to be considered for funding through the Swiss disability insurance system.

Scewo BRO and Scewo GO are the only stair-climbing mobility aids listed in the German Medical Aids Directory that are designed for independent use. They help users overcome everyday barriers such as steps, thresholds, and inclines, making it possible, for example, to travel independently to medical or therapy appointments.

Even after delivery, Scewo wheelchairs continue to receive regular software updates that add new functions. This can reduce the need for costly retrofits or replacement equipment and helps keep the wheelchair’s software technically up to date.

Using the log files, the medical supply store can identify defects remotely. This means that the problem is found more quickly and can be remedied more efficiently and easily. This also prevents long deployments of replacement equipment during maintenance.

• No costly home modifications required thanks to the integrated lift and seat lift & small turning radius
• No vehicle modifications or transportation service required thanks to the compact transport mode & long battery range
• Reduced care requirements thanks to the dynamic seating system, standing assist & pressure relief
• Long-term use thanks to adjustment options & extensions using Scewo or third-party products

Thanks to the integrated seat lift, users can significantly expand their range of movement. Workplace modifications may become unnecessary, and conversations at eye level become part of everyday life. Barrier-free access is essential for participation in education and employment.

The compact transport mode, including remote control, eliminates the need for vehicle modifications and allows BRO or GO to be loaded into a standard passenger car. The intuitive controls, including the rear-view camera, increase safety and reduce the need for assistance.

• Less reliance on caregivers thanks to standing assist, pressure relief, and easy seat adjustments.
