Using the suit to prevent future risks of industrial accidents
A Ramen noodle company in Hokkaido prefecture has a top market share in the city, thanks to the employees effort and the CEO’s strong feeling to protect employees health.
The working procedure for making noodles involve many liftings that made 40s- 50s employees to get Hernia.
The CEO was thinking of a way to resolve this problem when he had been introduced an assist suit by a friend which could reduce the back burden.
At first, he was not convinced but after finding that the suit does not need batteries, it is easy to wear and the price is reasonable, he decided to introduce Muscle Suit Every in his working place.
“After the introduction of the Muscle Suit, we use it for maximum 4 hours a day, lifting 15kg to 25kg of flour and brine and mixing them together.
At the first 2 days, I was not used to wearing the suit but when 3 days past, I felt the great support like the way body feels sitting down when bending my knees. Also it supports my back when lifting heavy objects and move parallelly in low positions.
I have realized the assist power of the suit when I compared the support with and without the suit by lifting 20kg of flour 5 times with the suit and 1 time without the suit. I was very much surprised how the Muscle Suits have been giving so much support.”
The company is relieved to have the suit which can secure employees health and after realizing the support which the suit can give, they are recommending to their agricultural business connections to use the suit.
Muscle suit has proved that it can be a tool for food industries to protect the health and improve working environment.
