Designed to impress
Emys is the compact, flexible postural backrest with a unique design. We have designed it to be incredibly easy to use thanks to the quick-release coupling and release systems. Emys provides a feeling of extreme comfort thanks to its breathable foam padding. The handmade padding can be removed and washed at 30°C. The flexibility of the backrest can be easily adjusted giving you the right mix of freedom of movement and control. Did you know that Tarta® Emys received the Oscar for innovation? Well yes in 2017, it won the prestigious “Compasso d’Oro International Edition”, an international design award, which is held every two years.
Design, well-being and ease of use.
Three key elements that have always distinguished Tarta products. The study of visual impact is the basis of a revolutionary design.
Captivating lines identify an instrument that stands out for its design originality applied to ergonomics. In addition, the new reflective material profiles increase its visibility, making it safe even in the NIGHT.
