The Weight Is Over
Exoskeleton Technology For All
Introducing the HeroWear Apex
Working men and women worldwide bear the weight of the global economy - literally. And they deserve tough gear that helps them tackle tough jobs and sustains their strength for work and for life. The HeroWear Apex means that their 'weight' is over. The first exosuit built from the ground up for both men and women, the Apex is a back-assist exosuit that is designed to reduce strain on the back while fitting like a comfortable piece of clothing. It features a patent-pending dual-mode technology to make it easy to turn the back assistance on or off, allowing it to be used in nearly any work situation. The textile-based design is modular, allowing for over 50 possible combinations so that the fit and the amount of support provided is perfect for anyone in any job.
Step Into The Suit
The HeroWear Apex is a back-assist exoskeleton that blends comfort, ease-of-use, and accessibility for all. The textile-based exosuit design was built for maximum range of motion.
Because you should be able to jump into a forklift, relax on your lunch break, and walk across an 800,000 square-foot facility — all without your exosuit getting in your way. Simply put: The Apex’s unique design provides strength when you need it, and gets out of your way when you don’t.
With its modular components, the Apex can be adjusted to fit workers of all sizes — both men and women. Which allows its benefits to be felt across your entire workforce. And our HeroCare 360 program provides unparalleled support, from assembly and fitting to training and storage.
World’s first exo for all, with a female fit.
Women make up half the industrial workforce. So from the beginning, the Apex was designed as an exo for all: the first exosuit with a female fit.
Reduces 50 lbs of strain on the back. Every lift.
Proven to significantly reduce fatigue, pain, and back injuries, the Apex reduces 50 lbs of strain on the back, to preserve your strength and health.

Easy to put on. Simple to activate.
Easy to take on and off, the Apex’s dual-mode means you can activate the exosuit’s assistance when you need it. And deactivate it when you don’t.

Explore The Science
Researched, developed, and tested in the lab at one of the world’s leading research institutions, HeroWear’s nonpowered exoskeleton technology is born from rigorous science and advanced ergonomics. Functional and effective, the Apex’s lightweight design doesn’t have any motors or batteries. Which makes it simple, reliable, less operationally complex. And more suited for work. The arrival of the Apex means wearable exoskeleton technology is ready for the workplace today, across multiple industries — from logistics workers in warehouses to those in industrial plants, the medical field, and military operations. The science is here. Now the weight is over.
Rigorous science for physical requirements.
Backed by an R&D team versed biomechanics and ergonomics, the Apex quantitatively reduces back pain, fatigue, and risk of injury from bending and lifting.
EZ ClutchTM routs force through suit.
Centered on the back the Apex, the EZ Clutch routs force through the exosuit. Without the cumbersome weight of motors or batteries.
Dual-mode setting. Another first.
With the touch of a button, the Apex offers a dual-mode setting that enables you to turn assistance from the EZ Clutch on or off.
Four modular components.
Modular components keep the Apex light (just 3.4 lbs), enable customization, and work in parallel with the body’s muscles.
