More Information

• How it works and looks
  - Tape roll allows to use circumferential wrapping and moulding technique. Time saving. No need to make a pattern
  - Perfect size (width) for small and larger orthoses. Can accommodate different sized fingers and different orthotic designs
  - Allows precise modelling conform the patient anatomy, for example in the web space
  - Orthoses can be remoulded when corrections are needed. Avoids waste of material
  - Soft touch feeling and smooth edges. Lightweight. Allows ventilation.
  - Prevents maceration of the skin. Excellent patient comfort and compliance.
  - Allows to easily cut small pieces to use as reinforcement of the orthoses when desired
  - Overlapping seams are not perceptible on the inside. Application of multiple layers raises rigidity and stability of the orthoses.
