Dorso Lumbar SoftSkin
This back exoskeleton is a 100% textile physical assistance device. Its elastic-free system prevents sagging without doing the work instead of the muscles. It can be worn alone or perfectly complements the other exoskeletons in the Japet range.
A full back textile device
Dorso-Lumbar SoftSkin is a textile exoskeleton that accompanies the back, whether you work standing or sitting, without doing the work instead of the muscles.
Based on the principle of proprioception, it simply reminds the body to straighten up.

Prevention accessible to all
Because it is lightweight, inexpensive and available in all sizes, SoftSkin Dorso-Lumbar allows entire teams to be equipped.
A collective and global approach, for effective integration in a context of health and safety at work.
Flexible comfort
The device adapts to each morphology and to each need:
you can wear only the top or the bottom, add a lumbar shell or a thermal pouch.
It maximizes comfort when combined with other Japet exoskeletons, for complete back support. Light, supple and discreet, it can be worn all day long.
Finally, a solution for sedentary jobs
For the first time, office and/or driving professions benefit from an exoskeleton adapted to the sitting posture.
The Dorso-Lumbar SoftSkin fills this void by offering global and discreet protection for the upper and lower back.
The benefits that make the difference
Proprioception, the secret of its effectiveness
A soft shell, placed against the back, makes the user feel his posture as soon as he starts to slouch. This slight tactile feedback helps him to naturally return to an upright position, without constraint or effort. This principle is based on proprioception, the bodily sense that allows everyone to perceive the position of their body in space.
So the Dorso-Lumbar SoftSkin:
- Strengthens proprioception : helps the body to regain its straight posture.
- Secure the back position : reduces the risk of fatigue and lower back pain.
- Avoid sagging: supports without rigidifying, for total mobility.

New generation of postural support
Each Japet innovation is the result of field observation. SoftSkin Dorso-Lumbar is the result of a close collaboration between our R&D team and the professionals who already use Japet.W+. From their feedback, a new generation of postural support was born: adjustable proprioceptive maintenance, without muscular constraints.
It all starts with the ground
In seeking to improve the lumbar comfort of Japet.W+, our engineers first developed SoftSkin Lumbar, a textile postural support accessory. Very quickly, the feedback from users was unanimous: the feeling provided by the proprioceptive shells was so positive that they asked for a device that covered the entire back.
From idea to products
Our R&D team then embarked on the design of a product faithful to Japet's DNA: maintaining muscular activity while offering effective back support.
After several adjustments and patterns, SoftSkin Dorsolumbar was born:
- removable soft shell;
- washable and breathable fabric;
- five sizes for a perfect fit;
- zero elastic for total freedom.
Adopted by French industry
Air France Industrie is inaugurating the use of Dorso-Lumbar SoftSkin with immediate adoption by operators: unprecedented comfort, natural posture, unanimous positive feedback.
This success in the field illustrates the vocation of SoftSkin:
- an accessible and not very restrictive solution;
- simple lever for engaging in a collective prevention approach.
Today, our textile exoskeleton is deployed everywhere, on workstations with great difficulty, as well as on sedentary positions, which finally find a complete back solution that is pleasant to wear.

Frequently Asked Questions
The return on investment of an exoskeleton depends on the workstation, the choice of hardware and its integration.
Well targeted and well used, it results in a reduction in fatigue, non-productivity and work stoppages, a better job retention And a Reduction of Turnover.
On highly demanding jobs, and when the equipment is well chosen, gains can appear as early as the first few months.
Japet puts at your disposal an ROI calculation tool for the Japet.W+ exoskeleton, to calculate the impact of its back protection.
Muscle loss occurs when the muscles no longer need to work. We see this phenomenon on certain lumbar belts, corsets, or with tight elastic materials that do the posture work instead of your body.
However, the Dorso Lumbar SoftSkin works completely differently: it is a small soft shell placed on your back that reminds your muscles to stand up straight.
It's called “proprioception.”
It is your muscles that work and correct the posture. So no risk of muscle loss.
