Supporting disability
Founded by inspirational father and son combo Clint and Riley, Polyspine supports those who need it.
Polyspine is a lightweight, portable torso and head support system designed for people with high-level physical disabilities, including cerebral palsy, quadriplegia, muscular dystrophy and motor neuron disease.
With a range of mounting brackets, this customised support device attaches to existing seating systems or recreational equipment to deliver an inclusive environment where users can participate.

Support where it is needed:
Before engaging us, Polyspine had developed its technology core and several accessories, but product images were lacking for trade show graphics and submission to the Australian Good Design Awards.
Working closely with Clint, we produced a selection of still renders and animations showcasing the product, securing the ‘best booth’ at several tradeshows and an Australian Good Design Award in 2022.

Design for Manufacture
Our close collaboration and attention to detail were evident to Polyspine, who also had manufacturing issues on several parts when we first supported them. Our diligent team conducted root cause analysis, applying their knowledge to resolve several manufacturing roadblocks and enabling scale-up to final production.
From this point forward, Purposed Design Lab has been proud to support Polyspine in designing and delivering several accessories to manufacture.

Materials:
Polyspine requires the seamless integration of plastic, metal, foam and textile components.
Our Team has over 20 years of combined experience working with each of these materials across multiple projects. We helped navigate the complex material and process selection challenge to deliver an optimal result. Next, we designed each part to ensure a high-quality, manufacturable outcome.
From 3D CAD models to 2D part specifications and on to supplier management, we ensure parts come in on time and to specification.
