Hello! How can we help you?

What is BioKork?

Ergon GP1 BioKork Rollator Handles provide ultimate ergonomics for the hand. However, the unique qualities of cork mean that it is now antibacterial and hypoallergenic. Cork’s natural damping qualities also make it an ideal rollator grip material, and its low density means that the grip is a lot lighter. The Ergon GP1 BioKork Rollator Grips use 40% cork sourced from sustainable forests in Portugal which are certified for their ecologically sound production. This ecological theme is continued throughout the rest of the grip. The inner core is plastic reinforced using natural fibre, which makes up 40% of its mass. In place of mineral oil, the gel in the palm section of the grip is vegetable oil based. The Ergon GP1 BioKork Rollator grip clamp can also be 100% recycled. It is all a result of Ergon’s “GreenLab” initiative.

“The cork provides a soft feel without being crumbly, slippery or mushy, even after lots of time in the rain.”

The grips are designed to be a more environmentally conscious option, and supporting cork forest management is a good thing. 

The material in the BioCork is made of; 30% Plant Material in the Palm Area, 40% Biowert Grass Fibre in the Grip Core,  100% Recyclable Aluminium Clamp, and 40% Cork from Sustainable Forests.

  • Excellent customer service…

    I messed up the thread for the clamping screw on the brake lever. Customer service helped me in a very friendly and reliable manner. After a few days I received a replacement screw, but unfortunately the thread in the hole of the lever was worn out.

  • Brilliant walker…

    Can’t believe that this walker has made such a difference to my life. I can walk over uneven ground, cobblestone paths and rough ground without needing to push any harder than on even terrain, thus avoiding painful arms and shoulders. The walker is r…

  • The Veloped 14er is now my travelling companion…

    The Veloped 14er arrived this afternoon! I immediately trained my circulation on a 2 km excursion; the upper handle height adjustment fits my needs perfectly. The excellent documentation on the website made it very easy to set up the order.

  • Outstanding…

    Although the Veloped Tour is an expensive investment, it is well worth it.
    It has given me mobility that no other rollator provides. I can now navigate uneven terrain, cobble stone streets, curbs and even pot holes with ease. I intend to take it wit…

  • So, so happy…

    I am so happy with my veloped, it's made walking so much easier. I enjoy being in the countryside , in the woods and tracks. With the usual walker with four corner wheels I found it difficult with stones and roots and branches but the veloped just gl…

  • Best Purchase…

    This was money well spent. I us this everyday and I can go anywhere with it. I have gone on remote trails and sandy beaches. Everywhere I go people ask about this Veloped. If you want your independence back, buy one of these.…

  • Finally one that does what it should.…

    I now own three rollators. This is my first one from Trionic. The first rollator from another company sounded like clanging metal as I walked along. It also got caught on all the broken pavements where I live and was therefore unstable. The second on…
