Crafting comfort in every workspace.
Workplaces should fit people, not the other way around. ErgoCotton is an independent ergonomics-led occupational health consultancy — quiet, evidence-based, and built around the small adjustments that quietly transform how a team feels at the end of the day.
We're a non-clinical Occupational Health Technician (OHT) practice. We handle the compliance, surveillance and ergonomics work in-house, and refer onward to partner clinicians whenever clinical interpretation is needed.

What we do
A practice woven around your people
From single workstation reviews to enterprise-wide health surveillance — calm, precise, evidence-based work.
Health Surveillance
Audiometry, spirometry, HAVS, and skin checks — onsite, confidential, and translated into plain English.
Ergonomics & DSE
Workstations shaped around the person — onsite, remote, or hybrid, with recommendations your team will actually use.
Risk-Based Screening
Proportionate screening for noise, respiratory, vibration, fatigue, and MSK discomfort.
SME OH Compliance
Right-sized occupational health for organisations without an in-house team.
Manager Support
Templates, scripts, and coaching that give line managers confidence in health conversations.
Training & Micro-Learning
Bite-sized sessions that turn theory into habit — for office, industrial, and hybrid teams.
Our approach
Quiet expertise. Measurable outcomes.
We believe occupational health should feel less like a tick-box and more like a thoughtful collaboration. Every engagement starts with listening — to your people, your data, and the texture of your day-to-day.
