ALTUO Specifications

ALTUO is fully mechanical—and therefore passive—unlike Agadexo and EXO 18-Basic, designed to support the arms and protect them during high-intensity work, particularly when the arms are raised.Primarily intended for construction workers and those working in green spaces, as well as workers in the industrial and logistics sectors, it transfers the weight of raised arms and part of the load to the hips using cable traction technology. It reduces stress on the muscles and joints of the arms.With its ultra-lightweight design at 1.8 kg, the ALTUO is designed to provide you with a comfortable fit for over 8 hours—which isn’t too shabby. Plus, its 100% textile cover conforms perfectly to the body.On the support side, medical-grade nylon cables provide adjustable support ranging from 8 to 15 kg. It’s therefore effective for performing repetitive tasks with your arms raised above your head.You’ll also appreciate how quickly it sets up and takes down—in less than 20 seconds. In fact, simply pull the straps to position your arms in the supports and activate the assistance. And since the ALTUO is cost-effective, you won’t need maintenance, replacement parts, or any additional fees after purchase.Resistant to extreme conditions (suitable for temperatures ranging from -30°C to +50°C), it’s also rainproof and comes with a protective bag.

ALTUO's Opinion

LALTUO by Exofair is being field-tested by specialists in construction, landscaping, and industry for its ability to support raised arms. Early feedback indicates a reduction in shoulder tension after just 30 minutes of use, which is particularly appreciated at the end of an eight-hour shift.On construction sites, masons and gardeners report less fatigue in their deltoids and trapezius muscles, with their shoulders feeling more relaxed even after hours of strenuous arm work.In addition, the 8 to 15 kg of support offsets the weight of the arms (about 5 kg each) plus the weight of tools. This can delay the onset of pain and maintain precision in movements.Finally, users will greatly appreciate its light weight, which makes it a discreet and reliable companion, even in high temperatures or cold conditions. However, be sure to adjust it properly if you want to achieve optimal performance during all tasks. Therefore, to optimize its performance, a 15-minute initial training session is recommended. In summary, ALTUO stands out for its mechanical simplicity, maintenance-free design, and proven performance for an extended arm position. Furthermore, it is the ideal solution for preventing musculoskeletal disorders in the arms in demanding work environments. Contact us! Our experts are here to answer all your questions.
