Back support for drivers and order pickers
Horb am Neckar, 15 October 2025 – With the new BionicBack MOVE, hTRIUS GmbH presents a targeted further development of its successful back exoskeleton, which is specially tailored to the requirements of beverage logistics. Whether loading and unloading crates, picking beverages or delivering to customers, the BionicBack MOVE significantly reduces physical strain and provides noticeable relief in everyday work.
Back strain in beverage logistics
The tasks involved in beverage logistics are among the most back-intensive jobs there are. Constant lifting, carrying and bending place a great deal of strain on the lumbar spine. Many employees suffer from persistent complaints, which lead to absenteeism and reduced performance. This is where BionicBack MOVE comes in: it provides dynamic support when lifting and bending, stabilises the neutral spine position and has been proven to reduce back strain and fatigue. At the same time, full freedom of movement is maintained – a crucial factor for efficient work.
Particularly innovative: the MOVE model is designed to be comfortable to sit in, making it ideal for drivers who regularly switch between sitting, walking and lifting.
Thanks to its slim design, low weight of around 1.2 kg and free-wheel function, the exoskeleton can be worn continuously, even while driving. This makes the MOVE model ideal for anyone who regularly lifts heavy crates of drinks, works on trucks or works in confined storage areas.
"In beverage logistics, physical exertion and periods of sitting often alternate constantly. That's exactly why we developed the BionicBack MOVE," explains Dominik Heinzelmann, Managing Director of hTRIUS. "It provides relief when needed and doesn't get in the way when it's not needed."
Better health, fewer absences
Companies benefit twice over: in addition to noticeable relief for employees, absenteeism and back problems are reduced, while productivity, safety and satisfaction increase. The system is easy to set up, can be customised and integrated into existing workflows without any problems.
With the new MOVE model, hTRIUS is expanding its BionicBack product family with
a solution specifically designed for dynamic activities involving periods of sitting. This makes it the ideal choice for order pickers, delivery drivers and logistics teams who move beverages on a daily basis.
