We’re proud to announce that Pineapple’s Levo Reduced Ligature Recliner has been awarded the Bronze Product Innovation Award by Healthcare Design. Chosen from over 31 submissions, Levo was recognized among the top three most innovative products in this year’s competition.
The Product Innovation Awards spotlight groundbreaking solutions that address the evolving needs of healthcare environments, with a strong emphasis on safety, patient experience, and functionality.
Designed specifically for behavioral and mental health settings, the Levo Recliner offers a safe and secure seating solution without exposed mechanisms. Its body-weight activated recline function enhances comfort while maintaining a ligature-resistant profile, and its 65-degree reclined angle promotes circulation and relaxation.
A jury of industry experts praised the Levo for its thoughtful, human-centered approach to design. Judges commented:
“An elegant product that will contribute to aggression reduction in a safe environment.”
“The recliner provides an innovative and aesthetically pleasing design while offering a reduced ligature product that is easy to clean. The product’s design is simple but functional.”
“This kind of design thinking extends beyond healthcare, exemplifying how smart, human-centered solutions can have broader applications.”
We’re honored by this recognition and proud to continue creating thoughtful, safety-driven designs that make a difference in healthcare spaces.
