Redefining the wheelchair_
Küschall, founded by Küschall Rainer, a determined individual who became tetraplegic at the age of 16, embarked on a unique entrepreneurial journey. Faced with the challenge of finding suitable employment, he took matters into his own hands and established his wheelchair production company in 1978.
While Küschall is the pioneering company to construct a wheelchair using graphene, others have explored the versatility of this remarkable material. It has been harnessed for various innovations, from crafting warming jackets to reinforcing concrete and even developing eco-friendly paint solutions.
