Bebionic Product Brochure

be yourself
When we created bebionic, we
set out to design a prosthetic hand
that could transform the lives of
amputees worldwide, and help them
regain a new level of independence
and control.
bebionic3 is the culmination of many
years of development and is the
most lifelike, functional, affordable
and easy-to-use, commercially
available bionic hand.
We worked closely with amputees
at every stage of development and
testing, taking their input to design
bebionic3 to work effectively in real
life situations.

standard glove
bebionic3 has been designed to look
as real as possible, with a rounded
shape and profile that gives the hand
a natural appearance, especially
when covered with one of our life-like
silicone skins.
Crafted using multiple layers of
advanced silicone material, the skins
are constructed with an integrated
reinforcing mesh that makes them soft
and durable, while being both easy to
remove and clean.
Available in 19 different life-like skin
shades, with unique TrueFinish™
micro-pigmentation that makes the
glove look as authentic as possible.
Additional detailing on the palms,
knuckles, nails and joints enhances
the natural appearance of the hand.
The gloves are also available in jet
black for a more futuristic appearance.
