Frequently asked questions
Does the Z-Flo positioner provide stable support?
Yes, the Molnlycke Z-Flo Fluidized Positioner is specifically designed to provide stable and secure patient support using advanced fluidized positioning technology. This technology offers significant benefits for clinical positioning and pressure management:
- Custom Contouring: The positioner conforms precisely to the patient’s unique body contours, ensuring a highly optimized and secure fit.
- Stable Positioning: This conforming action helps maintain consistent and stable patient positioning, crucial in medical settings.
- Effective Pressure Distribution: It works to evenly distribute pressure across the surface, helping to minimize localized pressure points.
The core positioning units are available in useful sizes, such as the Medium Utility Positioner (16” x 30”) and the Small Utility Positioner (12” x 20”).

Does this positioner prevent skin breakdown?
Yes, the Z-Flo Fluidized Positioner is specifically engineered to help maintain skin integrity. Its fluidized technology allows the material to mold precisely to the patient’s body, which effectively redistributes pressure across the support surface and helps mitigate the risks associated with pressure ulcers.
How does fluidized technology differ from standard cushions?
Unlike traditional foam cushions that can compress or lose their shape, the Z-Flo™ Fluidized Positioner uses internal fluidized material that conforms precisely to the patient’s unique body shape. Once molded into position, it stays in place, offering stable support and superior pressure redistribution that resists migration, which is critical for preventing pressure-related complications in clinical environments.
Is the Z-Flo Fluidized Positioner factory new?
Yes, all available configurations of the Molnlycke Z-Flo Fluidized Positioner are guaranteed to be in Factory New condition. This ensures you receive brand new stock, ready for immediate clinical use.
Is the Z-Flo positioner suitable for adult patients?

This device uses fluidized positioning technology to provide precise support. The available utility positioners come in sizes appropriate for adult use:
- Medium Utility Positioner: 16” x 30”
- Small Utility Positioner: 12” x 20”
There is also a Positioner Kit available that bundles both the Medium and Small utility positioners for versatile application.
