Our functional 3D insoles are fully customized and manufactured with the latest technology

In the field of foot orthopaedics, 3D manufacturing systems are the latest and most accurate option for a completely bespoke treatment.

Machined (CAD CAM systems), functional 3D insoles are the answer to a wide variety of foot pathologies. The success of this kind of treatment depends on personalisation, the insoles being adapted to the feet and the pathology of each patient, in addition to the quality of the materials and their implementation.

A biomechanical study aims to determine the patient’s pathology as well as its origin. It is vital that this study ends with a detailed prescription, which provides us with the necessary guidelines to create an insole that is healthy and beneficial to the patient.

Along with the correct distribution of plantar pressure, another requisite of a machined, functional 3D insole is to produce the right balance between the pronation and/or supination moments of the foot so the musculoskeletal system does not need to make any compensatory movements and forces or rotations beyond those that are normal.

For this to occur, it is essential to take into account aspects such as the patient’s weight, height, level of activity, etc. and to choose the material that best meets their needs, considering variables such as stiffness, recovery and the percentage of compression of the material to be able to offer a product that provides each patient with the perfect balance to improve their quality of life and painful pathology, while ensuring that the therapeutic properties of the foot orthoses are long-lasting.  

The types of foot orthoses can be classified according to the five biggest groups of users or patients: children, the elderly, sportsmen and women, women with characteristic foot problems, and people with special pathologies such as diabetes; however, in fact, there are as many types of orthoses as there are patients. 

A biomechanical examination, a podiatrist’s prescription, a mould-taking and/or scan of the foot, and a high-quality laboratory are essential requirements for insoles to perfectly fit the needs of each individual.

Browsing our website will show you the details of the way we work and what Biomech Consulting understands by foot orthoses from the perspective of health, biomechanics and scientific proof.

  • poliuretano
    POLYURETHANE

    We are the first Spanish company to have succeeded in machining this material. Its low resilience allows it to produce the most suitable dispersion of plantar pressures, preventing high pressure points in certain areas. It is an essential material in the treatment of pathologies such as diabetes and geriatric patients.

  • Mecanizado doble cara
    DOUBLE-SIDED MACHINING

    All our insoles are manufactured with double-sided machining, for which special, very accurate technology is required. This characteristic is vital in the case of certain treatments due to the improvements it provides in the plantar fascia by preventing stress on this structure.

  • Mecanizado
    MACHINING MATERIALS

    We have all the machinable materials on the market. Natural polypropylene, carbon-fibre polypropylene, single-stiffness, double-stiffness and triple-stiffness EVA, polyurethane, etc.

  • Personalización de la plantilla
    PERSONALIZATION

    We offer you the chance to personalise your insoles, whether they are in the framework or in the upper/lower lining. We can add your own logo, patient name or a unique and exclusive design.

  • Finalizado de una plantilla ortopédica
    FINISHING MATERIALS

    We have a wide range of technical, finishing, synthetic and sports materials in different colours and thicknesses to customise your patients’ insoles.

    SPECIAL PATHOLOGIES

    Studies focused on preventing and treating specific pathologies, like DIABETIC FOOT, have seen us develop a specific piece of software to reconstruct prostheses to suit these patients.

    CORRECTIONS

    After analysing the existing scientific evidence, clinical experience, our own know-how and ongoing orthopaedic-biomechanical study, we can offer all mechanical corrections in each machining material: MHS, LHS, BIO, Gait plate, Morton's extension are some of these.

  • Plantillas funcionales
    ADDITIONS

    Depending on the patient's pathology and their need for accommodation, relief or cushioning, the design of each of these specific parts can be done using different technical materials employed for this purpose.

    WE ADAPT TO YOUR FOOTWEAR

    Narrower designs in the case of women's footwear, specific inner soles for sports footwear, finishing materials in leather colours, shallower insoles that take up less space inside footwear, etc.

  • Tridureza en el material
    TRIPLE-STIFFNESS MATERIALS

    Double-sided insole machining enables a single piece to have three different levels of EVA stiffness and combine them in the best way in each case according to the patient's requirements.

    MATERIALS WITH SPECIFIC PROPERTIES

    R+D+I applied to product development has seen us pinpoint new materials with excellent mechanical support and new properties through a precise Young modulus that characterises ELASTIC behaviour according to the direction of the force applied.
