An exoskeleton that works with you – even in a vehicle
Horb am Neckar, 16 October 2025 – Heavy furniture, narrow stairwells and long transport routes: in furniture logistics, peak physical exertion is part of everyday life. To relieve employees of these demanding tasks, hTRIUS GmbH has developed the new BionicBack MOVE. The ergonomic exoskeleton supports the back during physically demanding movements and makes daily work significantly easier.
Ergonomic support for physically demanding tasks
Whether carrying sofas, cupboards or kitchen units, repeatedly lifting and holding heavy loads puts considerable strain on the muscles and spine. The BionicBack MOVE specifically counteracts these stresses. It supports the back extensor muscles, relieves strain when bending and straightening up, and promotes healthy posture without restricting freedom of movement.
Thanks to its lightweight construction and flexible mechanics, the system is suitable for all activities that require strength, precision and mobility. These include carrying and assembling furniture, as well as loading, unloading and delivering to customers.
An exoskeleton that works with you – even in a vehicle
A particular advantage of the BionicBack MOVE is its seat-friendly design. It can be worn throughout the entire working day, even while driving. This is particularly relevant for drivers in furniture logistics who regularly switch between transport and carrying tasks. Weighing only 1.2 kilograms and with an ergonomic fit, the system remains comfortable and unobtrusive.
"The furniture industry demands peak physical performance. Our goal was to develop a system that integrates seamlessly into everyday work and offers real relief," explains Dominik Heinzelmann, Managing Director of hTRIUS GmbH. "The BionicBack MOVE makes back health a matter of course without disrupting the workflow."
Improved health and efficiency
BionicBack MOVE offers clear added value for companies: less physical strain means less downtime, higher performance and lasting relief for the workforce. The system is ready for use in a matter of seconds, requires no power supply and can be easily integrated into existing processes.
With BionicBack MOVE, hTRIUS is sending a clear signal for greater ergonomics and safety in furniture logistics. The exoskeleton helps to protect the health of employees while increasing efficiency in everyday work.
