This unique combination consisting of Plastazote, with its proven therapeutic features and PORON, with its unique cushioning abilities, gives you assurance in fabricating a long-lasting product with multiple benefits for your patient. n nPlastazote is the most common closed-cell, polyethylene foam used in the foot orthotic industry. It will adhere to most materials, it is readily washable, discourages bacteria growth and has good thermal properties. n nPORON is a good shock attenuator and is very durable. It is commonly used as the middle and top layer of a soft orthosis. n nOne of the main causes for diabetic ulceration is the increase in plantar pressure on the bottom of the foot; especially, the forefoot and the heel area. Foot deformities, which are common in diabetic patients, lead to the focal area of high pressure. When an abnormal focus of pressure is coupled with a lack of sensation, a foot ulcer can develop. Therefore, off-loading plantar foot pressure is an important component in treating diabetic foot ulcerations.n nStudies have shown that using PORON and Plastazote together are effective in reducing pressure and FTI (Force Time Integral) under the forefoot. Diabetic patients and patients with peripheral neuropathy will benefit hugely from insoles made from this combination, reducing pressure and tissue damage.n nFeatures:nnBenefits of two well-known materials, combined into one.n‘Real’ PORON - ensures high performance and unrivalled quality.nRange of high-quality plastazotes in a variety of colours.nExcellent cushioning and moulding properties.nn nBenefits: nnUse for devices that can help prevent tissue damage.nPressure reduction.nDurable.nHelps reduce ulceration risk in diabetic patients. nIdeal for total contact treatment.nReduce stock requirements.nSave manufacturing time.nCost-effectivennMaterial Options: nPORON 4708 - Medical BluenSoft Supporting • medical-grade quality - skin tested by Satra. nMedium-density foam material - lasting comfort and compression. n nLD45* Plastazote - PinknLatex-free, non-toxic • Hypoallergenic - Plastazote foam helps reduce skin irritation.nConsistent cell structure - no distortion during conversion.
