From Christchurch, New Zealand, Melrose Wheelchairs is rewriting the game—literally. Founded over 30 years ago by Phil Melrose after his own accident, the company now thrives under his daughter’s leadership, crafting custom-built wheelchairs that empower users to live fuller lives. Whether it’s helping someone venture out for the first time or equipping elite athletes for global competitions, Melrose’s chairs are designed for performance and purpose. Their Rhino model dominates wheelchair rugby, while specialized versions suit basketball, tennis, and even lawn bowls at the Commonwealth Games. This isn’t just mobility—it’s freedom, innovation, and a powerful statement about what’s possible when you build with people’s needs at the core.
