The Starflex orthotic blank is a polyester resin,
reinforced with glass fibre threads.
The advantage of this orthotic lies in its varying
thickness, which gives it strength, flexibility and lightness.
This results in a very high rate of patient tolerance
and satisfaction.
Starflex product features
Available pre-cut to size and molded to approximate
shape, thus saving time and avoiding wastage when using sheets.
Unbreakable, made from Fibre Glass Reinforced Resin which
has been toxicologically tested and conforms even to the food
industry requirements.
Differing thickness gives greatest support
exactly where it is needed. The longitudinal arch is only
3.1 - 3.5mm thick and the (flexible) heel about 1.0mm.

If discolouration occurs this will not affect the performance.
