Atrix backpack vacuums are lightweight, low-profile HEPA units worn on the back — freeing both hands and letting operators cover large floor areas, stairwells and hard-to-reach spaces quickly. Phil Industries stocks the Ergo backpack range ex-stock in Singapore with delivery across Southeast Asia.
Backpack models
| Model | Power | Filtration | Best for |

Why a backpack vacuum
- Speed over open areas — significantly faster than an upright or canister on large square footage.
- Hands free — easier on stairwells, aircraft cabins, under racks and between benches.
- HEPA filtration — 99.97% at 0.3 microns; suits cleanrooms, electronics sites and healthcare.
- Operator comfort — correctly fitted harness distributes load for long shifts.
Fitting & use tips
- Adjust the harness so weight sits on the hips, not the shoulders.
- Use the correct wand/tube for the surface — see Filters & Accessories.
- Change HEPA filters on schedule to maintain suction and filtration rating.
