ErgoPod

Description

Rethinking Sample Handling

The ErgoPod is smarter alternative to conventional geotechnical sample bags. This innovative, reusable, and airtight container is engineered to improve the way materials are handled, transported, and stored.

WHS Ergonomic Design

Redesigned to meet modern lifting standards, the ErgoPod features integrated lifting lugs with finger grooves and a carrying capacity of 16L/20kg. More than just a container, the ErgoPod® is a solution to ongoing challenges in the industry. By minimising awkward body movements and reducing the risks associated with lifting heavy, unstable bags, it helps address the rising concerns around workplace injuries and WHS compliance. We can also fit a sturdy metal handle where required.

Easily Stacked

The stackable design of the ErgoPod® ensures efficiency during transportation and storage, helping streamline your operations in the field and laboratory.

Effective Asset Management

The ErgoPod is designed for use with QR codes and NFC/RFID tags, allowing your operation material to be organised and efficient.

Sustainable and Strong

Constructed from durable, non-porous Australian recycled plastic (PP), the ErgoPod® holds up to 20kg or 16L of material. Its rigid walls allow a single operator to fill it quickly and efficiently—saving time and reducing strain.

Why Switch to ErgoPod®?

Occupational health assessments have repeatedly flagged the handling of traditional sample bags as a key injury risk—especially during filling, lifting, carrying, and storing. While mechanical aids such as carts and electric lift trolleys have provided some relief, the root cause remains. Using your finger pads instead of your fingertips can protect over 3,000 nerve endings. Every design choice in the ErgoPod® considers the small details that contribute to safer manual handling.
