Ergoccyx for Heavy Vehicles

Workers in the construction industry are highly susceptible to developing back pain, buttock pain, neck pain, among others. The various risks they face make them one of the sectors most affected by musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).

In a seated position, there is constant pressure on the sacrum and coccyx. This pressure travels up the entire spine to the neck and accentuate pain in case of existing conditions (sciatica, lumbago, herniated disc, spinal compression, neck tension, ischial pain, tailbone pain while sitting).

Driving heavy equipment tends to exacerbate these pains because construction sites are often very uneven (filled with holes, rocks, etc.). The shocks resulting from ground irregularities and the vibrations from the machinery can worsen the pain, making construction machinery operation and maneuvers painful and challenging.

To help with pain related to various conditions (lumbago, sciatica, herniated disc) and the shocks and vibrations from construction equipment, tractors and forklifts we have created the Ergoccyx anti-vibration seating cushion:

• Cushion for sciatica, lumbago, herniated disc, spinal compression
• Vibration-absorbing cushion: Fluid technology to absorb vibrations, shocks and tremors from vehicles
• Postural cushion: Promotes a dynamic position (parallel legs, open pelvis, straight back)
• Cushion for back pain and coccyx pain: Relieves the coccyx and sacrum to reduce pressure on these areas and on the spine.
• Improves seating comfort for machine operators (construction equipment operator, construction machinery operator, forklift driver)
• Possibility to relieve pain with cold therapy by placing the fluid pouch in the freezer

For optimal effectiveness, use the Ergoccyx seat cushion with Ergoback backrest cushion: discover our products packs for construction machine operators.
