EazyHold adaptive aids are one of six finalists to receive the reportedly first-ever Amazon’s Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year Award, Simi Valley, Calif-based Mellin Works LLC announces.
EazyHold, designed by Kerry, Merrily, and Wendy Mellin—co-owners of Mellin Works LLC—are adaptive aids to help those with disabilities like stroke, spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s disease, limb loss, ALs, and arthritis, to eat, drink, write, work and play independently. In addition, a new category of silicone grip aids are designed for the healthcare and caregiving industries. They are fulfilled by Amazon and are carried in Amazon’s mainstream marketplace.
After a 35-year career designing for the motion picture industry, Kerry discovered through her own necessity a lack of simple grip aids to help people be active through physical adversity. This led to the creation of EazyHold, according to a media release from Mellin Works LLC.
“For schools, hospitals, therapy centers, and for home use, EazyHold is becoming an industry standard, and is now recognized worldwide in university curricula, and academic textbooks on Instructional Basic Assistive Technology Application and Procedure,” Mellin says.
