Breaking Down the Cost of Assistive Technology

At Affordable Assistive Technology Australia, our mission is simple: to make high-quality assistive technology more accessible and affordable for all Australians.

We achieve this by embracing a lean, efficient business model—supplying products directly from trusted manufacturers to you. This direct-to-consumer approach helps us eliminate unnecessary warehousing, handling, and middleman costs. Instead of storing products in expensive local facilities, we ship directly from our vetted suppliers, cutting down on storage fees and frictional retail costs.

By carefully selecting and partnering with reliable overseas manufacturers, we’re able to maintain strict quality standards while keeping prices low. These savings are passed directly onto our customers—so more people can access the tools they need to live with greater independence.

Because we believe no one should be priced out of daily living support, we keep our margins low, offer flat-rate $5 shipping Australia-wide, and ensure most deliveries arrive within 10–12 days.

Affordable support. No fuss. Delivered to your door.

Empower with Assistive Tech

I was incredibly fortunate to complete my occupational therapy placement in Vietnam, where I witnessed moments that will stay with me forever. I saw how a simple piece of assistive technology could open up a whole new world for a child—helping them move, communicate, or participate in daily life in ways that once seemed impossible. It was in those moments that I fell in love with the profound impact of small interventions. What may seem like a modest change can mean the world to someone—and that truth has stayed in my heart ever since. Below were just a few of my team's creations.

Sensory board
A sensory board is a fun, hands-on play board made just for curious little ones.
We created these sensory boards for children in rural Vietnam, using simple, affordable materials that were easy to find. The goal was to spark learning through play, helping young kids develop their fine motor skills, coordination, and confidence—all while having fun.
Floor sitter
This floor sitter was specially created for children with cerebral palsy in Vietnam to help them sit comfortably and safely during play or learning time on the floor.
We made them by modifying everyday plastic chairs— removing the chair legs to help little bodies stay upright and relaxed. It’s was a simple, affordable solution designed for children who need a bit of extra support while sitting during floor time.
Chewy necklace
This Rubber Chew Toy was specially designed to support children with autism and sensory processing needs in Vietnam. Made from high-quality and BPA-free rubber purchased from the grocery store, this chewable aid offered a safe and soothing way to manage their anxiety, improve focus, and reduce oral sensory-seeking behaviors.
