Orthotics and Prosthetics Sheets
Orthotics and Prosthetics Sheets represent a wide range of plastics for use in the manufacturing of functional orthotics. For the design of the available orthotic, rigid materials lie at the core of construction. Expected to be easily malleable—generally, the more severe the structural problem, the more challenging the material needed for correction. We provide different blends in our material construction for different types of applications. These blends in sheet form will convert into comfortable, functionally enduring, and aesthetically pleasant end products for ortho Sheets applications.
