Abstract : Modern markets desire innovative products and comfortable usage. Evidence revealed that a lack of methodology is to develop an innovative human-centred product. Human-Centered Design (HCD) was used to develop comfortable products, whereas Theory of Inventive Problem-Solving Technique (TRIZ) was used to develop innovative products. Hence, this study aims to develop an integrative methodology using the HCD approach and the TRIZ technique. The report demonstrates a new method, named Innovative Ergonomic Product Development (IEPD), which describes a systematic process to develop an innovative ergonomic product. The effectiveness of the developed IEPD methodology was ensured by a case study using industrial container design in the textile industry. Using IEPD methodology, a novel design was developed for an industrial container which ensured the innovation and ergonomic aspects. IEPD methodology helps researchers and/or practitioners to develop innovative ergonomic products systematically. The findings of the study help industries to develop innovative human-centred products.
