Linking geriatrics and Circular Economy | new project ongoing!

Helping older people: an additional motivation

We have the great luck to take part in touching projects. But this time, not only will it defy our design skills, but also will it involve us emotionally.
Our new goal is to develop a device allowing older people to stroll freely, and preventing them from being injured or harmed in case of falling.

Specialists of a Day Care Centre in Madrid, explained to us the huge need of such a device, and how existing strollers do not solve this problem. So, we have been honoured to devise it and to make it available and, of course, affordable.
This project implies many design constraints. We have tight collaboration with specialists in geriatrics and physiotherapist, to find a technically and economically feasible solution that is also adequate to the reality our elderly live.

This will be a product created by end-users for the benefit of themselves. We are just putting engineering to work, translating needs into well-being, physical limitations into freedom. Design Thinking in its purest state to create an innovative fall-preventive zimmer frame. 

Needless to say that, the product will strictly follow all ecodesign rules to provide a top-quality solution without harming the environment. Well...we have just said it :)
