Colas met la technologie au service de ses tireurs au râteau. L’Exopush, un exosquelette codéveloppé avec la start-up RB3D, est déployé dans plusieurs agences en France et à l’international. L’objectif : améliorer les conditions de travail et le confort des compagnons, qui ont été associés au processus de conception. La première version de l'Exopush pesait plus de 40 kg contre à peine 8,4 kg pour la plus récente. La façon dont il se porte a également été modifiée pour plus de confort.
