Features: ■ Open cell - breathable ■ Durable ■ Cushions ■ Shock absorbing ■ Insulating Bamboo material: ■ Moisture wicking ■ Totally natural (no chemicals) ■ Natural anti-fungal properties (Eco-friendly) ■ ThermoRegulator - near skin temperature control Plastazote Plastazote is acknowledged as the most cited thermoplastic foam material in medical literature. Plastazote foams have widespread uses in orthotics, prosthetic linings and foot care appliances. A thermoplastic polyethylene foam, Plastazote is easily heat moulded (85-140°C) and will adhere to most materials. Being cross-linked they are equally suitable for thermoforming, either by compression or vacuum moulding. They can be split, sawn, die-cut and heat laminated together to form thicker blocks. Latex-free, non-toxic and hypoallergenic, the use of Plastazote foams helps reduce skin irritation. Plastazote foams are typified by their highly consistent cell structure. Because they are expanded in a free environment (without the use of a mould) they also have little in-built stress and little tendency to distort during conversion; both features that make them easy to process and fabricate. Medical application areas include: orthotics, splinting, seating, collars, prosthetic padding & protective equipment.
