One universal size fits most vehicle/user combinations and its integral harness attaches securely to most drivers’ seats. In standard specification, it has an inflatable lumbar support that can be repositioned to suit the driver. Four further inflatable cells are available. These can also be positioned exactly to the driver’s needs to offer an even more tailored fit.

• The adjustable lumbar support can be inflated and deflated and repositioned anywhere inside the backrest so it fits most spine shapes and curvature.
• The 3-way harness attached securely to the driver’s seat to ensure it stays in position in use and when the driver gets in and out of the vehicle.
• Four different optional cells can be added and positioned inside the ErgoDriver to optimise comfort for all users.
• The optional cells enhance comfort for users with non-standard lumbar lordosis (curvature), such as those with kyphosis or scoliosis.

Introduction

The great debate about office and homeworking continues and, however it plays out for you or your organisation, there will be a need to carry a laptop (and accessories) between locations. Typical laptop bags are designed to protect the computer rather than the user. By contrast, ours are designed to protect the user and the laptop (in that order), offering a variety of storage options, comfortable carrying, good load distribution and quality manufacture. We have just added these two new Port Designs bags to our carefully selected portfolio.

• The Hanoi II Trolley Bag contains padded compartments for a 15.6″ laptop, tablet and accessories so it carries and protects everything your mobile office requires.
• It also has a large separate compartment for clothing and personal items and it is IATA-approved for cabin baggage so it will meet all your short-term travel needs.
• The Manhattan Combo Bag & Backpack also provides plenty of storage for smaller laptops, tablets, papers and accessories.

Introduction

The Kinesis Freestyle2 Convertible Keyboard allows for maximum flexibility, catering to each individual’s unique needs and to every work environment. The Kinesis Freestyle2 convertible keyboard is a split keyboard that is designed to adapt to the natural posture of your hands, arms and shoulders so the user can work with good posture.

It allows wrists and hands to be in a comfortable and natural typing position to minimise the risk of developing future complaints such as Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI).  The Freestyle2 has a zero degree slope which minimizes the height, effectively creating a negative slope and reducing wrist extension.

Features & Benefits 

• USB wired ‘plug and play’ connection.
• Split keyboards are designed to adapt to the natural posture of your hands, arms and shoulders so you can work with good posture. The split and angled design avoids wrist pronation and twisting of the hands which causes the carpal tunnel in the wrist to constrict.
• Reduces ulnar deviation. Ulnar deviation occurs when the wrist is bent outward in the direction of the little finger which causes the carpal tunnel in the wrist to constrict.
• Lightweight and portable, ease for transportation and storage.
• Integrated palm supports reduce stressful bending of the wrists and provide a convenient place to rest your hands when you are not actively typing. Available as an addition.
• Numeric keypad is available to add on. It supports an ergonomic desktop layout. Ideal for numerical work such as spreadsheets.
