From September 23 to 26, Belieff was present in hall 4, booth 4A03 at REHACARE 2026 in Düsseldorf, the international trade fair for rehabilitation, prevention, inclusion, and care. For four days, users, their loved ones, healthcare professionals, and suppliers of assistive devices gathered around one key topic: how can practical solutions contribute to a more independent and comfortable daily life?
For Belieff, the fair was not just about showcasing products. It was, above all, a moment to reflect on what good assistive devices should do in practice: provide comfort without extra hassle and offer support without restricting the user.
Warmth is not a luxury when you spend a lot of time sitting
Those who walk or cycle outdoors are constantly in motion, thereby generating warmth. For someone in a wheelchair or mobility scooter, it works differently. During colder days, the feet, legs, and back in particular can cool down quickly.
This doesn't just affect physical comfort. Cold can also determine how long someone wants to stay outside or whether they decide to go out at all. Therefore, a heating solution should not only be pleasant but also fit into daily use.
The most important question is not how many features a product has. The question is: does it make a cold day noticeably more comfortable without making the user unnecessarily dependent?
Practical solutions must remain simple
A great deal of innovation can be seen at a trade fair like REHACARE. Yet, a valuable assistive device does not have to be complex. It is precisely products that are easy to use, carry, and combine with a wheelchair or mobility scooter that can make a difference in daily life.
For Belieff, this means, among other things:
-
warmth where and when it is needed;
-
a design that suits a seated position;
-
as few separate actions as possible;
-
comfort without unnecessarily restricting freedom of movement;
-
materials suitable for regular daily use.
The goal is not to add more technology to someone's day. The goal is to make cold, wind, and discomfort less of a deciding factor.
The heated foot blanket: targeted warmth for on the go
One of the key solutions in the range is the Belieff Heated Foot Blanket. It is developed to keep feet and lower legs warm while seated and can be used wirelessly with a power bank.
The soft inner lining helps to retain heat, while the heating provides extra support during fresh and cold moments. As a result, the foot blanket is suitable for use on the go, during an outdoor activity, or during moments when someone is sitting for longer periods.
The practical benefits:
-
targeted warmth around feet and lower legs;
-
can be used wirelessly;
-
designed for use in a wheelchair;
-
comfortable during longer periods of sitting;
-
suitable for both daily trips and outings.
The foot blanket is therefore not a technical end in itself. It is a way to keep going out more comfortably when temperatures drop.
The Belieff Heated Foot Blanket costs €199.95, excluding shipping costs. Orders are dispatched within 24 hours.

Comfort sometimes requires more than just warmth
Cold feet are only one part of being comfortable on the go. Wind and rain require a different form of protection. That is why, at REHACARE, Belieff primarily showcased solutions that together cover various daily situations.
Protection against wind and rain
The Belieff Wheelchair Poncho is made for wheelchair users who want to go outside in changeable weather. The poncho covers the upper body and lap, while allowing the user to keep their hands free to operate the wheelchair.
Targeted warmth while sitting
The Belieff Heat Pad provides warmth exactly where it is desired while sitting. The thin, flexible design can be used on a chair and is intended as a practical addition for cold moments at home or on the go.
These products each have their own application. Therefore, they do not all need to be used or purchased at the same time. The right solution depends on the situation: is cold around the feet the main problem, is protection against rain needed, or is targeted warmth while sitting desired?
From the exhibition floor to your daily situation
Every year, REHACARE demonstrates the vast amount of knowledge, innovation, and commitment that exists within the world of rehabilitation and care. For Belieff, however, the most important benchmark remains simple: does a solution also work on a regular cold or rainy day?
Practical assistive devices should fit the life of the user. They should be easy to understand, feel comfortable, and help ensure that daily choices are less determined by the weather.
That is what Belieff takes away from REHACARE 2026: not more complexity, but thoughtful warmth and comfort for moments when it is really needed.
