A unique wheelchair for
runners and outdoor enthusiasts.

Because we all deserve human connection and the freedom to enjoy the great outdoors.

Small Company, Big Heart

At Kartus, we are a small team of passionate outdoor enthusiasts with a big heart for our community. Too often, society overlooks seniors and people with disabilities, leaving them disconnected from the beauty of the outdoors. We challenge this by ensuring that no one is forgotten. Our innovative, high-quality wheelchairs are designed to empower individuals to experience the thrill of adventure—the warmth of the sun, the breeze on their cheeks, and the serenity of nature.

Join us in redefining what's possible and embark on your next great adventure with Kartus.

See how Danielle would describe her experience with Kartus.

We asked Danielle how would she describe her experience with the Kartus adapted wheelchair in one sentence. She told us : "Freedom! And joy. The joy to feel the wind on my face." Whether participating in the Quebec City shared run community or going in the outdoors, Danielle is always available to hop in a Kartus wheelchair. Smiles garanteed.

Testimonials

The chair let us enjoy family activities with our sick son. Once a great athlete, it gave him the opportunity to see beautiful scenery and rub shoulders with other sport lovers.

Mario Béland, who ran regularly with his son David

Running always pushes me to go further. Kartus boosted me. Kartus has made my dream of running come true, and with every run, has allowed me to follow my own path at the same time. So, if you want to challenge yourself, disabled or not, go for it!

Marie-Michelle Fortin, who lives with Cerebral Palsy

The potential for disabled people is undeniable. It's a way to help with their condition while experiencing the pleasure of the great outdoors. A great feeling of freedom!

Simon April, Counsellor for rights of people with disabilities

Kartus lightens and creates special, longlasting memories for families. One family told us that their grandfather was able to come on their annual family trip. Before Kartus, this simply wasn't possible.

Yan Robitaille, Patro de Charlesbourg

It helps break those isolation barriers, make meaningful connections, and has allowed me to reconnect with a friend from High School that I hadn't seen in over 20 years.

Michel Bédard, radio host and co-runner

A pure delight that makes nature accessible to older people with physical limitations. The residents and volunteers bond on a more personal level. It's a way to get in shape while making someone happy.

Isabelle Dufresne, Recreation Technician @ CIUSSS NIM

It's very rewarding to see people with disabilities enjoy an outdoor activity while getting to be a part of it. This product is very relevant and deserves to be put out there. The success and development of shared runs clearly shows how effective and inclusive this product really is.

Karine Perreault, Project manager @ Quebec Leisure Association For People With Disabilities
