Ultra-Light Electric Wheelchair Gaining Popularity in Japan – Clients Visit Our Factory to Strengthen Partnership

On May 15, 2025 our company welcomed long-term clients from Japan to our factory for an in-depth visit. This face-to-face exchange reinforced our growing partnership, which began with small trial orders and has gradually evolved into a solid, trusted business relationship. The visit also highlighted the increasing global recognition of our electric wheelchair products.

Designed for Japanese Homes: Lightweight and Practical

In Japan, limited indoor space, narrow elevators, and slim doorways are common—especially in urban apartments and aging homes. With elderly users often favoring compact and easy-to-carry mobility solutions, our 500-6 ultra-light electric wheelchair perfectly matches these local needs.

With the frame weighing only 9.8kg, the 500-6 features a strong yet lightweight aluminum frame, foldable structure, and compact design—ideal for home use and short-distance outings. From the living room to the balcony, from indoor spaces to quick trips outside, the 500-6 enhances daily convenience and mobility.

Equipped with Brushed Motor – Stable, Reliable, and Easy to Use

The 500-6 is powered by a classic brushed motor, known for its consistent performance and durability. It delivers smooth operation and moderate torque, ensuring reliable mobility on flat surfaces, ramps, and narrow streets—perfect for everyday use by seniors.

The intuitive joystick control allows users to move forward, reverse, and turn with ease. Even first-time users can operate it confidently with minimal learning time.

User-Oriented Design for Real-Life Scenarios

Compact wheelbase: Enables easy maneuvering inside hallways, kitchens and bedrooms;

Foldable structure: Fits into car boots, making travel convenient;

Removable lithium battery: Can be taken upstairs for charging in buildings without elevators;

Breathable seat fabric: Provides comfort for extended use.

Customer Endorsement and Strong Market Outlook

During the factory visit, Japanese clients praised our standardized production process, quality control system, and innovation capacity. They reported positive user feedback from early sales trials, especially in major cities like Tokyo and Osaka, where aging households are actively seeking lightweight mobility aids.

A client representative commented, “The 500-6 offers the right combination of portability and practicality. This is exactly what many Japanese users are looking for.”

Looking Ahead: Innovation and Market Expansion

As Japan's aging population continues to grow, demand for lightweight, compact electric wheelchairs will rise steadily. Our company remains committed to continuous innovation, focusing on lightweight structures, comfort and smart features that meet the specific needs of East Asian markets.

We sincerely thank every customer who trusts and supports us. Sulenz looks forward to working with partners around the world to deliver better, smarter mobility solutions for a more accessible future.
