Material
Descriptions
Shell:
Custom White Polypropylene:
Polypropylene
has excellent chemical resistance, is strong and has a high melting point.
Polypro has the following benefits: strength/toughness, resistance to
chemicals, resistance to heat, barrier to moisture, versatility, resistance
to grease/oil.
EVA: Milled Solid EVA
shell with a neutral rearfoot posting. Provides a softer, slightly more
compressible resistance to the foot. Primarily for accommodative needs
patients.
Foam:
Celon:
Celon rebound material has many features and benefits not found in
polyurethane. Celon, is lighter in weight than polyurethane, doesn't
degrade or deteriorate by oxidation. The most impressive feature of
Celon is its capacity for memory and the stability of the material when
in use.
Spenco:
Expanded Fabric Covered Neoprene for Covering and Cushioning Orthotics -
Closed Cell
Poron®
(PPT): is a frothed, open cell urethane sheet that is breathable,
odorless, washable and non-sensitizing. Poron will not bottom out.
PORON materials are made without plasticizers, which means the insole
won't shrink or become brittle and crack with age. PORON insoles retain
"like-new" softness and flexibility - even at temperatures to
-40°F (-40°C) - resisting the tendency of other insole materials
to bottom out and take a permanent compression set. This results in
maximum comfort for the life of the shoe. PORON material forms permeable
layers that draw water vapor and perspiration away from the foot,
helping to keep shoes and feet dry, while reducing foot odor.
Topcovers:

Padded fabric:
Allows for breathability between the plantar surface of the foot and the
underlying padding for shock absorption. Provides a non-slip surface for the
foot.
EVA: (ethylene-vinyl
acetate copolymer), possesses excellent blending characteristic with foaming
and crosslinking agents. Provides superb mechanical properties because
microcell distribution is extremely uniform. Vinyl:
Standard plastic topcover material with fabric backing.
Leather:
Genuine leather hide material is an option for any of our devices.
Plastizote: A polyethylene foam.
Other:
Crepe:
Natural rubber material. Ping
Pong: Dimpled rubber used for heels.
