Q. What made you consider Archelis?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our main operation is treating the surface of metals using \u2018hot-dip galvanizing\u2019. It\u2019s a job that requires standing for a long period of time. Because of an industry-wide shortage of workers, we have to assign this work to some of our older employees. I wanted to do something to try and help them out, so I decided to use Archelis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q. What kind of work do you use Archelis in?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before the galvanizing process, we have to thread the items together with wire to keep them together. Since there are so many items constantly flowing in, our workers have to stand in the same place for a long time. Watching them keep stretching from discomfort during this process struck a chord in me, I wanted to help them.

Q. Tell us your thoughts on implementing Archelis.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I told our workers, \u201cjust try it out and see for yourself\u201d, and hopefully they\u2019re feeling a little bit less tired after work now. I tried it out for myself, and it certainly was a more comfortable experience than just standing.

Q. Where do you use Archelis?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We use it in the initial phases of the galvanizing process. We thread wire through the metal to keep it together. You\u2019re constantly bending forward, putting stress on the back, shoulders, and neck. Then, you\u2019re in the same position for hours on end, so it\u2019s very tiring.

Q. How do you feel about using Archelis?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One day, the boss came over and told us about Archelis, saying it was good for back pain, so we tried using it. It stretches out your back like it\u2019s being supported, so you can straighten out even when in that bent-over position. It feels extremely stable and it\u2019s comfortable too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think the biggest part for me was that the boss cared not only about our job performance, but also about our physical health. It made me feel happy.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Q. Who would you recommend Archelis to?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I think it would be good for workers who stand in the same place for long periods of time. I\u2019m also sure it would be good for anyone suffering from back pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your cooperation.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
