I’m Usa-chan, the “wheelchair x beauty” funny x model! In DisabilityLog, as a SNS influencer, I hope to provide lots of useful information for people with disabilities. I will also enjoy providing information about beauty, travel, sightseeing, music, photography, and other hobbies.

I saw wheelchairs introduced at an event called the International Home Care & Rehabilitation Exhibition (HCR) at Tokyo Big Sight, and I wanted to document the colors of the frame colors of wheelchairs from various manufacturers for reference. We would be happy if you could use this as a reference when purchasing a wheelchair.

In this issue, we would like to introduce the “frame color” colors of “wheelchairs” by “wheelchair manufacturer” that you have been wanting to know about.

I am very confused about the color of the “frame color” of my wheelchair. I asked the wheelchair manufacturer to show me a “color sample” of the wheelchair’s “frame color” (color chip) and I chose the color from there, so I also took pictures and videos to commemorate the event.

Powder coating

There were 46 different frame colors for wheelchairs.

Generally, when adding color to a wheelchair, the most common pattern is probably [powder coating (powder coding)].

Powder coating is a coating method in which powdered paint, rather than liquid, is applied by electrostatic force and baked in an oven to harden it.

​Powder coating is an environmentally friendly coating method that does not use organic solvents, and has been adopted in Europe, the U.S., and other countries around the world. It is also used for medical and welfare equipment as a health-friendly surface treatment method because it contains no VOCs (volatile organic compounds), as well as the quality of the coating.

The variety of colors shown to us was fewer than those listed on the Internet, but when we were shown color samples of actual frame colors, there were quite sparkling, normal colors with light sparkles, metallic colors, milky colors, and other pastel colors.

I really can’t decide.

【KADOWAKI】Color swatch of wheelchair frame color

Before going into the main topic of color samples of wheelchair frame colors, one thing I was wondering is that [KADOWAKI] is not a manufacturer specializing in wheelchairs.

Then, what do they mainly paint?

What they are painting

The manufacturer of [KADOWAKI] is mainly painting building interiors, commercial facilities, products of industry, and mass production.

Therefore, they also painted wheelchairs! Many people didn’t know that.

I heard that they also paint competition wheelchairs for the Paralympics.

Ginza Mitsukoshi”, “Futakotamagawa Rise”, “GINZA SIX”, etc.

It is amazing to see the wonderful buildings being painted ♡.

I went to see all of them, but the buildings were so luxurious and impressive.

Here are some color samples of KADOWAKI’s wheelchair frame colors.

There are so many kinds of colors! Some were even more sparkly than the last one I introduced [FORCE]. I love glitter, so I found several colors that were perfect for me.

It’s a manufacturer that paints buildings, so it’s very impressive.

There are at least five or more similar colors alone, and they are very fine.

A pricey paint job would likely cost extra from the amount of the wheelchair subsidy….

But I want my wheelchair to be one-of-a-kind and precious, so I’ll make it fashionable! Make it cool! It’s good for you, isn’t it?

Incidentally, color swatches of wheelchair frames are shown on pages 138-139.

There are a number of frame colors, but there do not appear to be any special colors that are glittery or patterned.

Separate from the frames, color swatches for the sheets were shown on pages 140-141.

The checkered pattern is cute.

I’m very curious. It’s a great reference for new wheelchair colors.

What are the results of your answers?

Gold Color

Brown

Red

Purple

Light blue

Silver

White

Yellow

The results were really diverse, with each person having his or her own personality.

Surprisingly, I thought that most of the women’s wheelchairs would be pink, red, or white, but there were also respondents who said they had yellow or light blue wheelchairs, which made me realize that everyone has their own favorite color.

I thought that most of the men would be in black or blue, but there were some who had silver wheelchairs.

I would like to show a video of the colors of the wheelchair frames to those who can post videos, such as Instagram reel videos, because a video shows how the colors look and glow better than a photo.
