Engineering technology in a stroller

MANILA, Philippines - Aprica, a premium Japanese brand in baby gear, introduces the Aprica Soraria Stroller, the first-ever face-to-face baby stroller with a high seat of 50-cm. from the ground surface.

Infants have thin respiratory tracts, which is why early childhood is a critical period. Several biological systems such as the brain, lungs, and the immune system, are still developing. Air toxins can severely impair lung function and neurodevelopment.

Aprica childcare engineering technology has given birth to Soraria’s considerable seat height — 50-cm. from the ground, where there is 10-20 percent lower concentration of pollutant particles.

Soraria’s unique and innovative seat structure was developed to maintain the natural posture of the baby for proper spine and limb development and growth. The head and neck are protected and prevents compression of the respiratory tract, and correct waist support makes sure that natural movements are not hindered. The base of the thighs is also supported to stabilize the baby for minimal vibrations.

Soraria strives to create a comfortable and pleasant environment with its 50-cm. high seat feature that elevates the baby away from the heat, at least 2ºC lower, for a cooler baby-friendly climate.

The Capsule Multi-hood provides protection from the direct rays of the sun and blocks of more than 99 percent of UV rays. Reducing stroller perspiration also avoids dehydration, which is why Soraria’s stroller itself, the base seat, and the reversible seat, are made of three-dimensional mesh and knit material.

A ventilating groove at the perspiration-prone back area keeps baby from feeling warm and perspiring, and the presence of ventilation pores at the back of the seat also provides excellent ventilation.

Soraria’s face-to-face feature is the most appreciated of all. Moms can now see their baby’s beautiful smiles and make sure that baby is safe. Whether facing toward or away, the back wheels are locked for safety and the front wheels are free to rotate for smooth maneuvering. The double high position handle design ensures ease when pushing, and can be adjusted to suit mom’s height, body type, and pushing situation. Soraria also opens and close with a singe touch, and can stand on its own when folded to make for easy storage.

Aprica is available at any Baby Company outlet at SM department stores nationwide.
