Headrest Development

Client: Ergochair

Brief:

During a factory review, a production bottleneck was identified by NorthSky. A new headrest was designed that not only improved aesthetics but also streamlined assembly to reduce production times.

Development Process:

  • Created multiple concept iterations leading to an optimised final design
  • Designed for high-volume manufacturing using injection moulding
  • Refined design to minimize components and improve fixing mechanisms, reducing assembly complexity
  • Oversaw tooling, testing and scale-up for full production
  • Delivered complete product supply for rollout

Output:

A re-engineered headrest with improved ergonomics and aesthetics, while significantly reducing assembly time on the factory floor.
