The newly launched Orfit Crystal NS is an innovative material that offers many advantages, such as full transparency at room temperature and during the activation, form and hardening process. It also remains transparent on your patient’s limb!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Orfit Crystal NS also offers enhanced flexibility and a non-stick coating with antibacterial properties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/b>What can Orfit Crystal NS be used for?<\/span><\/b><\/h3><\/div>\n\n
    \n
  • Proprioceptive orthotics (e.g. wrist-related pathologies)<\/li>\n
  • Functional orthotics (e.g. finger or thumb osteoarthritis)<\/li>\n
  • Supportive orthotics (e.g. TFCC and\/or other joint disorders)<\/li>\n
  • Protection over sensitive skin during athletics and sports activities<\/li>\n
  • Monitoring of wounds and scar tissue<\/li>\n
  • Lightweight orthotics for elderly and pediatric patients with fragile skin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Despite the great advantage of the non-stick coating, it still offers a challenge to attach Velcro straps to the surface of Orfit Crystal. (Due to the superior non-stick coating, regular confirmation of adhesive tape is not possible).<\/p>\n

    That’s why we’ve created this roadmap on safely attaching belts to Orfit Crystal NS.<\/p>\n
