Astris PME, a leading Australian provider of scripted Assistive Technology, is excited to announce the opening of a new branch in Perth, WA. Responding to numerous requests from local equipment users and therapists, Astris PME is expanding its reach to serve the Western Australian community.

As distributors of top-tier brands such as Rifton, Leckey, Sunrise Medical, Jenx, Motion Composites, SPEX seating and Magic Mobility powered wheelchairs, Astris PME is committed to providing exceptional products and services. The new showroom in Perth will showcase their extensive range of equipment.

Founded in Sydney in 1952, Astris PME is a remarkable “garage to national company” success story. With a mission of “Improving Lives,” the company has a deep passion for supporting therapists and their clients. In addition to the new Perth location, Astris PME operates branches across NSW, ACT, QLD and VIC.

Astris PME offers clients free trials of scripted Assistive Technology, as long as a registered Occupational Therapist or Physiotherapist is in attendance. Trials can be conducted in the new Perth Astris PME showroom, at the therapist’s clinic, or at a location requested by the equipment user or their family.

Astris PME provides comprehensive 24-hour positioning support, via a vast selection of equipment for long-term users of supportive mobility devices. Their equipment range includes wheelchairs (both powered and manual), strollers, activity chairs, commodes, floor-sitters, gait-trainers, standing frames, and more.  The full range can be reviewed at www.astris-pme.com.au.  

Astris PME work closely with each client’s prescribing therapist, thereby ensuring positive outcomes for every client.
