Our Journey From a Camping Trip to Revolutionizing Mobility

The remarkable story of Strongback Mobility began with a simple camping trip taken by our co-founder, Ladd Lougee. It was during this trip that Ladd experienced the common discomfort many campers face: an uncomfortable camping chair leading to back and neck pain. Inspired to make a difference, Ladd embarked on a mission to develop a new and innovative camping chair that would revolutionize the camping experience. Little did he know that this would be just the beginning of our journey.

A New Era of Comfort and Support

In 2010, Ladd Lougee successfully introduced the Strongback Chair, a groundbreaking camping chair that offered unparalleled comfort and support. However, our vision extended far beyond the realm of camping. Ladd noticed the alarming similarity between the unhealthy posture adopted by standard wheelchair users and the discomfort experienced in low-quality camping chairs. Determined to make a lasting impact, Ladd, along with co-founder Dr. Christian Grothe, dedicated two years to developing the first ergonomic STRONGBACK wheelchair.

Recognitions and Awards

Our commitment to revolutionary design garnered significant recognition in the industry. Strongback products were honored with the prestigious German Design Award in both 2018 and 2020, solidifying our position as leaders in product design. Esteemed juries praised the user-friendliness and innovation of our products, cementing their place as industry benchmarks in both North America and Europe.
