About Us
V-Shield Asia Pte Ltd
Workforce-First Ergonomics & Back Protection in Singapore.
We exist for one reason: to protect the people who keep operations running. In warehouses, healthcare facilities, logistics operations, and manufacturing environments, the lower back is often the first thing to break — and the last thing companies plan for. V-SHIELD Asia helps organisations shift earlier: from reactive treatment to proactive back injury prevention and manual handling support.
We focus on two solutions that teams can actually adopt at scale:
Japet.W+ motorised lumbar exoskeleton
- an ambulatory lumbar spine distraction device designed to reduce lumbar strain and support movement
V-SHIELD Industrial Back Support
- daily reinforcement for lifting, carrying, and prolonged standing.
We keep our focus narrow because it keeps results real: reduced fatigue, better posture habits, and faster adoption — not a catalogue of unrelated items.
Why leading organisations choose proactive lumbar support
Too many organisations act only after injuries show up — resulting in downtime, claims, turnover, and teams that learn to “push through” until pain becomes chronic. We help you move upstream with credible, evaluatable lumbar support — without slowing operations.
Faster HSE evaluation & procurement confidence.
- We remove the ambiguity that stalls safety upgrades.
The Japet.W+ is Singapore’s only lumbar-support motorised exoskeleton supported by HSA Class B medical device classification, giving HSE and procurement teams a clearer basis for evaluation compared to non-regulated industrial wearables.

About Company
V-SHIELD Asia is built for one job: help organisations protect the physical capability of their workforce.
Based in Singapore, we specialise in lumbar exoskeleton solutions and industrial back reinforcement — and we support customers end-to-end, from evaluation and documentation to demo, sizing, training, and rollout.
We operate lean by design: fewer handovers, faster decisions, and direct accountability — because when it comes to workforce protection, “maybe later” becomes expensive.
Make professional back protection practical, adoptable, and credible — so fatigue never becomes permanent injury.
A workforce culture where organisations protect capability before pain becomes normal.

Lumbar Exoskeletons & Workplace Ergonomics (Singapore)
What is a lumbar exoskeleton?
A wearable support system designed to reduce load on the lower back during tasks such as lifting, carrying, and prolonged standing—commonly used to support manual handling and reduce fatigue.
Is Japet.W+ a medical device?
Yes — Japet.W+ is registered in Singapore with the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) as a Class B medical device. It is intended for adults and supports ambulatory lumbar spine distraction, and can be used for pain management, rehabilitation, and preventive support as described in the official product documentation.
It is indicated for adults with chronic and acute low back pain and intended for ambulatory distraction of the lumbar spine.
How is Japet.W+ different from a back support belt?
A belt provides compression and reinforcement. Japet.W+ is a motorised lumbar exoskeleton designed to provide assisted lumbar support during movement, aimed at reducing fatigue and load during demanding tasks.
Can we arrange an on-site demo in Singapore?
Yes — we provide on-site demonstrations so teams can assess fit, comfort, and operational suitability in real working conditions.
What documentation is available for HSE and procurement review?
We provide structured specs and evaluation materials, including the documentation needed to support HSE review and internal procurement processes.
Do you support rollout and provide certification?
Yes — we provide sizing guidance and practical usage training. Users who complete training receive an official training certificate for internal records.
Are grants available for ergonomic solutions in Singapore?
Yes — we have customers who have successfully supported claims under Enterprise Singapore PSG (Productivity Solutions Grant) (subject to eligibility and scope). We support customers by providing the relevant documentation pack and supporting materials for internal submissions.
