About Us...
We are a family business (master craftsman) and focus on the truly individual supply of aids in the field of technical orthopedics. We manufacture almost everything in our own workshop, so we can guarantee short delivery times. Our goal is to offer customers individual solutions reliably and accurately. For example, we build an insole for each foot in our workshop, and we address all possible complaints and misalignments (also as a precaution). The secret of success lies in individuality, choice of materials and a sincere interest in the customer as a person. According to the motto: “As good as possible, not as good as necessary”.
