We Are Ergonomic Tool Crafters.
That doesn’t mean we cater to soft workers, it means we help you work just as smart as you do hard. With a better handle you can work longer, with less strain while accomplishing more. Work isn’t supposed to be easy, but it doesn’t have to be painful.
What is Ergonomics?
.01 Ergonomics (from the Greek word ergon meaning work, and nomoi meaning natural laws), is the science of refining the design of products to optimize them for human use. Human characteristics, such as height, weight, and proportions are considered, as well as information about human hearing, sight, temperature preferences, and so on.
.02 Designing machines, tools, and work environments to best accommodate human performance and behavior. It aims to improve the practicality, efficiency, and safety of a person working with a single machine or device.

"Ergonomics is the science of 'fitting' workplace conditions and job demands to the capabilities of the working population. Effective and successful 'fits' assure high productivity, avoidance of illness and injury risks, and increased satisfaction among the workforce"
