Darcor's
ergonomic logo symbolizes work-efficient, worker-friendly
casters that will reduce injury, time lost due to injury
and production delays.
Ergonomics is the study of human abilities, human limitations
and other human characteristics that are relevant to
design. From this knowledge, an ergonomic, worker-first
approach has been adopted in the design of tools, machines,
systems, tasks, jobs and environments for safe, comfortable
and effective human use.
Companies and countries spend billions on workplace
injuries and all the associated human and production
costs. Currently, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health
Administration is proposing legislation that requires
industry to improve their operations in an effort to
reduce work-related injuries, from back strain to hearing
loss.
Building products that are ergonomically sound can eliminate
many of these problems. Start from the ground up with
ergonomic casters from Darcor.
How Ergonomics and Casters Relate
Ergonomics is the tailoring of products so that the
human user involved is as comfortable as possible, and
stress and fatigue are minimized. Health, safety and
productivity benefits often result from this worker-friendly
approach.
Darcor believes the primary force behind caster product
development during the next century will be the increasing
concern for ergonomics and safety.
Every Darcor caster is designed to help your company
perform effectively and safely. Whether you push, pull
or drive through your workplace, Darcor casters are
a silent partner, improving mobility with the lowest
rolling resistance available.
At Darcor, the superior ergonomic casters begin with
a simple concept - higher performance with low rolling
resistance and quiet shock-absorbing wheels. Darcor
has led the world with low rolling resistance shock-absorbing
