ERGOCERT AWARDS FILMOP TROLLEYS FOR ERGONOMIC EXCELLENCE

The health of frontline cleaning professionals has always been at the core of Filmop’s design philosophy. Today, this commitment reaches a major new milestone: specific configurations of the Alpha and Morgan multi-purpose trolley lines, tailored for hospital and industrial environments, have achieved the prestigious ergonomic certification issued by ErgoCert, the first internationally accredited body under standard ISO 17065.

The secret? The 250 mm wheels

The core of the innovation lies in the configuration with 250 mm high-smoothness fixed wheels in an intermediate position, which act as a mechanical stabiliser. The result is concrete: the force required to start movement is reduced by up to 25 -26%, and the operators work within the minimum effort range for the vast majority of the time. No sideways skidding when cornering, and an optimal pivot point even when fully loaded.

Two stars, two areas of excellence

The tested models achieved the "ErgoCert Certified ★★" rating, passing rigorous dynamometric tests in real-world hospital and industrial operating scenarios:

The certification covers two complementary areas:

• Polytechnic Area (UNI EN ISO 26800): stability, manoeuvrability, and ergonomics of compartments and handles.
• Biomedical Area (ISO 11228-2): reduction of biomechanical overload during pushing and pulling, preventing fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders.

Alpha and Morgan: two concepts, one standard

Alpha is the trolley designed for those who require capacity and modularity. Easy-to-reach compartments, a bag that can be removed without lumbar strain, and a fully customisable configuration.

Morgan focuses on compactness: an easy-to-handle structure, ideal for operating in confined spaces, ensuring low push forces and maximum driving stability.

A concrete investment in prevention

Choosing ErgoCert-certified trolleys is not just a matter of comfort: it means having scientific data and objective parameters to integrate into workplace Risk Assessment Documents, actively protecting operators from biomechanical risks.

Less physical strain, higher efficiency, and certified compliance with international standards. Because caring for those who do the work is the first step towards truly professional cleaning.
