In The Media
An Overview of COVVI
COVVI is a portmanteau of the Latin ‘Coperor’ and ‘Vita’, translating as ‘Working Together’ and ‘life’, respectively. The two ‘V’s represent multiple lives changed, in other words, COVVI was conceived to change multiple lives by working together.
The team is very excited to show the prosthetics world what is possible when you put your mind to it, we have worked incredibly hard over the last 5 years and believe our prosthetic hand is a game-changer. We have prepared this short video to give you an insight into the business, what it is capable of and how it’s grown since 2017.
Sarah De Lagarde’s Inspirational Story
In 2022, Sarah de Lagarde sustained a life-changing accident on the London Underground. No one saw her when she lost her footing and fell through the gap between the train and the platform. She managed to survive being run over by not one, but two different trains while she was trapped.
Sarah has always been a woman full of pride, strength and inner confidence. This incident wasn’t going to change that, and in fact, it only made her realize that “we don’t realize how strong we are until we have no choice. We are so much stronger than we think we are”.

Why Choose COVVI?
COVVI has designed its prosthetic technology around the necessity of functionality and accessibility, for both clinicians and users. The COVVI Hand boasts incredible robustness and versatility to match what’s required for everyday use, all of which is backed by software that provides an unrivalled user experience with a powerful level of customisable refinement.
In order to achieve this, we have ensured our designs are world-leading in their capability, is personalisable to every user, and can withstand the strength and speed pressures required of a hand for everyday life.
The COVVI Glove
The COVVI Hand has an integrated medical-grade silicone glove with a soft-touch coating. This provides the hand with IP44 rated dust and water resistance. The index finger is also coated to allow the user to use touch screens.
At every stage of design, we’ve thought about how prosthetics need to respond to modern day life, so we ensured that the COVVI Hand was not only compatible with these new technologies, but could actually be used to operate them at an acceptable level.
