Your Questions, Answered.

Complete transparency on everything you need to know about the Biolift exoskeleton. We believe in answering the tough questions upfront.

Product & Technology

Does the Biolift exoskeleton have batteries or motors?

No. The Biolift exoskeleton is purely mechanical, using a spring-loaded system. This means no batteries to charge, no motors to maintain, and no downtime. It works reliably all day, every day, in any weather condition. This mechanical simplicity is a key advantage in durability and reliability compared to complex powered systems.

How much maintenance is required?

Minimal. Because it's a mechanical tool with no electronic components, maintenance is simple and infrequent. Basic cleaning and occasional inspection of mechanical components is all that's needed. Compare this to powered systems that require battery management, software updates, and complex technical support.

What Makes Biolift different from other exoskeletons?

Our unique design has no rigid components on the front or sides of the body, giving you complete freedom of movement while providing strong back support. Most competitors force you to choose between support and mobility, We give you both. Plus, our purely mechanical design means unmatched reliability.

Can I work normally while wearing it?

Absolutely. The Biolift is designed for complete freedom of movement. You can twist, bend, kneel, and work naturally. Think of it like a chainsaw versus a handsaw—it doesn't make you weaker, it just removes the excess strain from your back while letting you use all your skill and technique.

Safety & Use

Is the exoskeleton about making me stronger or safer?

Neither—it's about sustaining your own strength. The Biolift doesn't provide artificial strength that could create liability. Instead, it empowers you to sustain your natural strength, skill, and endurance longer throughout the workday and throughout your career. It preserves your inherent capability, making you a more resilient and enduring professional.

What if someone gets hurt while wearing it?

In over 200 users across two years, we have zero reported injuries. The exoskeleton is designed to support your natural movement, not change it. It reduces strain on your back while allowing you to work normally, which actually reduces injury risk compared to working without support.

Do I need a special training to use it?

Minimal training is required. Most users feel comfortable within the first hour of use. We provide fitting guidance and basic operation instructions. The beauty of the mechanical design is its simplicity—there are no complex controls or settings to learn.

What tasks is it designed for?

The Biolift is purpose-built for high-strain tasks common in hardscaping and construction: laying pavers, operating cut-off saws, heavy lifting, and repetitive bending. It's designed by people who understand the real demands of job site work.

Adoption & Team Use

Will my crew actually use it?

Yes, when they feel the difference. The key is proper introduction—let them try it during actual work, not just standing around. Most users report feeling 'brand new' at the end of the day. We provide guidance on introducing it to your team to ensure buy-in and adoption.

Can multiple people share one unit?

Yes. The Biolift features adjustable sizing that can accommodate different body types. This makes it practical for crews to share units, though many companies find that once workers experience the benefit, they prefer their own personal unit.

What if my workers think it makes them look weak?

Position it as a professional tool, like safety glasses or steel-toed boots. The best workers take care of their bodies because they're professionals. Frame it as: 'You're too valuable to break down.' Most resistance disappears once they feel the difference it makes.

How do we handle onboarding and training?

We provide comprehensive onboarding support including proper fitting, usage instructions, and team introduction strategies. The key is making the first experience positive—workers need to feel the benefit during real work, not just during a demonstration.

ROI & Business Case

How quickly does this pay for itself?

Typically 2-3 months. By preventing even one two-week absence due to back injury, the exoskeleton often pays for itself immediately. Conservative estimates show ROI through increased productivity (gaining 30-60 minutes per worker per day) plus significant cost avoidance from reduced workers' comp claims.

What about worker's compensation costs?

A single serious back injury can cost $50,000+ in medical bills and compensation, with insurance premium increases lasting 4-10 years. Our track record shows zero reported injuries across 200+ users over two years, making this an excellent risk mitigation investment.

How does it affect productivity?

Users consistently report working more efficiently and maintaining energy longer throughout the day. Conservative estimates show 30-60 minutes of increased productive time per worker per day. When workers aren't fighting back pain, they can focus on quality work.

Is it worth it for small crew?

Especially for small crews. When you only have 3-5 workers, losing one person to injury is devastating. The exoskeleton protects your most valuable assets—your skilled workers—and ensures business continuity. Many small contractors say they'd buy the exoskeleton before many other pieces of equipment.

Key concept

Think of it Like a Chainsaw vs. Handsaw.

A chainsaw doesn't make you a weaker carpenter—it removes the excess effort so you can focus on precision and skill. The Biolift exoskeleton works the same way: it doesn't make you weaker, it just removes the excess strain from your back while letting you use all your skill, experience, and technique.
