Logistics jobs, such as warehouse workers, forklift operators, material handlers, and order pickers, are physically demanding and can lead to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).
The onset of MSDs is often caused by activities such as:
- handling heavy loads (lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling),
- uncomfortable postures, particularly when working in overhead storage,
- and repetitive movements when loading and unloading goods.
Exoskeletons represent an innovative and effective solution to address these health and well-being challenges at work.
Hapo has therefore developed a range of exoskeletons targeted and adapted to the parts of the body most affected by musculoskeletal disorders, which are the shoulders, back, and neck. The different Hapo solutions aim to prevent muscle pain and the risks of conditions such as lower back pain, tendinitis, or neck pain.
Suitable for issues of back pain and tension, risks of lower back pain, sciatica, and herniated disc
Suitable for issues of pain and tension in the shoulders and arms, risks of tendinitis and rotator cuff problems
70%
of work accident stoppages are related to lower back pain or back pain (source ameli.fr)
860,000
of workdays are lost each year due to workplace accidents in this sector (source ameli.fr).
95%
of occupational diseases recognized in the transport and logistics sector are related to MSDs (source ameli.fr).
HAPO has developed a complete range of mechanical exoskeletons to provide targeted solutions in reducing postural risk factors and the onset or worsening of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in the workplace. To maximize their effectiveness while respecting the body's natural movements, each exoskeleton targets specific postures and specific areas of the body.
Users of our exoskeletons testify to the concrete benefits observed

"The accumulation of strain meant that by the end of the week we had back pain... I no longer have this pain and I no longer have issues with lower back pain. It is a wonderful tool for me."

"I have been using the hapo exoskeleton for 11 months, and so I am quite satisfied"
