Too many professionals suffer from musculoskeletal disorders caused by repetitive tasks or awkward postures. However, we have always believed that everyone deserves to work in conditions that respect their health and well-being. It was this conviction that guided the creation of the first non-motorized exoskeleton from Hapo in 2016 and continues to inspire our innovations today. Instead of designing heavy, complex, and often expensive motorized devices, we opted for an eco-friendly, human-centered design approach. Our non-motorized exoskeletons (also known as passive exoskeletons) are designed to be effective, durable, simple to use, and, most importantly, easily accepted by those who wear them. For nearly 10 years, we have been developing devices that support hundreds of professionals in their daily lives. And we continue to innovate to meet the evolving needs of our users.
Originally founded with the purpose of providing employement opportunities for individuals with disabilities, ErgoSanté has evolved over the years into a leader in designing and manufacturing innovative ergonomic solutions. In its continuous quest for innovation and well-being, ErgoSanté launched Hapo, its range of non-motorized exoskeletons, to better address the specific challenges of workplace health and the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).
The technological core from Hapo Research & Development is based on innovative materials with adaptable elastic resistance mechanical properties.
Our ambition: to offer exoskeletons that are more efficient, more comfortable, more reliable, and more accessible.
Thanks to springs combining lightness with a high capacity for energy storage and return
To reduce muscle strain while maintaining the precision of movements
An agile and multidisciplinary R&D process
Engineers, doctors, and ergonomists collaborate to create innovative and high-performance exoskeletons, ensuring an optimal balance between efficiency, comfort, and compliance with safety standards in every work environment.
Laboratory and real-world tests
The objective : to accurately measure the biomechanical impacts on the body (muscle activity, postural balance...) and the subjective feelings of the users (level of comfort, freedom of movement...).
A local production
In our sites in France and the United States. This dual presence allows us to stay close to our users and to take advantage of their feedback to continuously improve our devices.
The Hapo advisors close to you
Thanks to their expertise and the analysis of data collected with the postural analysis application Hapo LEA, they assess the specific issues of each work environment, identify the most suitable solutions, and support their implementation through personalized follow-up.
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.

Designers, mechanical engineers, doctors in biomechanics, ergonomists, analysts, integrators, consultants, seamstresses, assembly operators…: the entire team of Hapo specialists constantly challenge the norms together to imagine, design, and manufacture effective and innovative non-motorized exoskeletons. In the service of everyone's health.
Since the launch of its first non-motorized exoskeleton, HAPO has filed several patents as part of its innovation strategy to promote workplace health. In line with this approach, our teams have also developed the HAPO Sensor and the LEA postural analysis application - two tools that allow for detailed analysis of work movements and postures and continuously improve the impact and effectiveness of our devices.

Arnaud D.
"In terms of prevention, if you ever have an exoskeleton that is light enough, adapted to your morphology, and allows you to have slightly fewer constraints, then technically, you are less exposed."
Stéphane
" I mainly use it in the workshop, I take it to the sites when I have to do a lot of handling, that is to say, loading, unloading the van, and bringing all the elements to the clients"
