Epithelium 26 ^® EPITACT silicone gel plate

This material is the subject of a patent: “The Substitute for the plantar pad”. It reproduces the mechanical (viscoelastic) properties of the healthy human plantar pad.

Its thickness of 2.2 mm is sufficient to effectively distribute loads without creating instabilities.
Its long lifespan allows integration into orthotics (several months).
Low loss of thickness and mechanical characteristics over time compared to foam.
Covered with fabric on both sides, Epithelium 26 ^® is easy to use (cutting with scissors, Neoprene ^® bonding or iron-on bonding).

DESCRIPTION
Plate made of a 2.2mm thick pressure-distributing silicone gel embedded between two polyamide/elastane fabrics.

USE
Pressure distribution material to be integrated into plantar orthoses (cannot be sanded).

BENEFITS
Plates made of EPITHELIUM 26® are biocompatible non-adhesive silicone gel devices doubly bonded to tissue. They are soft and elastic. EPITHELIUM 26® is presented as a resistant gel, which distributes plantar pressure mainly under the forefoot.
This silicone gel does not lose its mechanical properties over time.

IMPLEMENTATION
- Cut the module into the desired shape by beveling the edges using scissors.
- Glue it to the desired area of your foot orthosis with neoprene glue or by heat-sealing on resin.
- Apply your covering to the sole.

COMPOSITION
84% silicone, 16% polyamide/elastane fabric.

INTERVIEW
The material is machine washable at 30°C.

PRESENTATION
Plate measuring 20 cm x 20 cm.
