About Us
Welcome to RESBAC.
Incorporated in Malaysia, RESBAC is a start-up focused in tech to create a niche in the furniture industry.
RESBAC is driven by 3 individuals from different backgrounds, converged together with a vision and objective to bring innovative and simplistic ideas to complement existing products in the furniture world.
Dominic, the founder, brings his ideas and ‘can-do’ attitude to the organization. An engineer by profession; he regularly has his thinking cap on to seek ways in solving technical challenges at work and back home. Complementing him is Audrey with her sound financial background. Her knowledge in the financial world adds an advisory advantage to the founder. Finally, Charles with his experiences on corporate business acquisition and operations. All 3 are integral part of the team who are committed and determined to bring success by positioning RESBAC in the industry as an innovative organization.
In 2020, the world witnessed the emergence of COVID19 pandemic on a global scale. The pandemic brought plenty of changes in our daily lives which further enhanced our dependency on technology especially on the Internet. In all of a sudden; work, school, shopping etc were all done virtually; accessible and executable through the comfort of our own homes.
It was during these periods, Dominic, the founder of RESBAC, living with his two young daughters, wife and parents, came to a realization. He observed his kids while they attend to their online classes and during their activity times which involves their iPads and mobile phones. He realized that while seated on the sofa, they were slowly adopting to slouching and tilting their heads towards their devices over a long period of time. He began to wonder the implications of such exposure and strain at a young age and how it might affect them in the future. On top of it, his father, amid retirement, starts to spends more time on his mobile phone and in a similar occurrence tilts his head down.
He began to research the implications and came across various health journals identifying the issues which could be detrimental oin a long run to his kids, and similarly to every other kids out there as well as adults such as his father and even himself. He learned about the term ‘Text Neck Syndrome’ coined to describe a variety of complications that could arise from such prolonged exposure. A syndrome, if left unchecked could lead to issues for his kids and everyone else for that matter and as he dwelled deeper, he figured that he needs to find a viable solution for it.
Inspired by his kids, and fuelled by his job nature as an engineer, he began to think of a way to help his kids. Thus, an idea was born and a visual of a design which will solve this problem.
In January 2022, the founder received his first patent (pending status) for a sofa armrest which can complement a variety of available sofas in the market. The speciality and difference between RESBAC armrest and the conventional units; it comes with a built-in mobile device holder. The concealed device holder within the armrest is designed to assist users to hold their devices at eye level while providing them with ease of use and comfort of their own sofa. This is essential as it will provide and allow the users to enjoy such leisure while maintaining a good support for their neck and back.
RESBAC™ was conceived as a concept and extended into a solution not only for his kids, but millions of others out there, children and adults. The solution comes as a perfect addition to your living rooms, offices, waiting lounges, malls and everywhere else practical, where comfort, style and health comes in mind without any compromise.
From its conceptualization and currently in its design stage, RESBAC has started its work by a formation of a small yet dedicated team to create the awareness and to popularize the product into the market once ready.
We don’t intend to stop there. We are exploring new ideas as we grow to create new innovative and inventive solutions that will improve the quality of our lives.
