Malleability and support
The corrugated aluminium core allows the shape to be adjusted. The appropriate shell and fastening together serve the intended purpose of each product.
Corrugated aluminium core
Malleable construction, fitted without heat or water.
Soft contact layers
Skin-contact surfaces and layered construction.
Product-specific straps
Textile and/or aluminium-containing fastening elements.
Layered construction
In Chrisofix® hand orthoses, the malleable aluminium core provides support, while soft contact layers contribute to the fit. Appropriate straps complete the fastening for each design.
Check the specific cleaning, reuse and stability instructions on each product page. The rib splint, for example, is single use and does not follow the care instructions for hand orthoses.
