Trekinetic, a pioneering manufacturer of all-terrain wheelchairs, recently received an exciting request – to design and build a custom yellow K2 wheelchair for Electric Umbrella’s performance in the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent.

With a tight deadline and their trademark commitment to excellence, Trekinetic’s team rose to the challenge. Known for challenging perceptions through design and engineering, Trekinetic eagerly collaborated with Electric Umbrella, an organisation that shares their spirit of breaking boundaries and transforming lives.

"We were delighted to be asked if we could build a yellow K2 for Electric Umbrella," said Ed Spindle, Commercial Director at Trekinetic. "Like Electric Umbrella, we believe there is no such thing as normal, and are proud to have played a part in their incredible journey on Britain’s Got Talent."

Engineering Excellence Meets Creative Expression

Trekinetic’s innovative all terrain wheelchairs use a lightweight carbon fibre frame that can be moulded in almost any colour and was the perfect fit for a performance designed to inspire and captivate. Now, as Electric Umbrella prepares to take the stage, Trekinetic’s custom creation will help ensure they make an unforgettable impact.
