HOW WE'RE
DIFFERENT.

Anyone can redistribute the basic materials from a factory.
Unaltered, the materials can be an unwieldy size or shape
that is difficult to store or results in costly waste during
production. Preparing the materials for efficient use is
left to you. It's a time-consuming messy task that requires
additional space.
That's why MatPLUS should be your supplier. We're different.
We're not just a simple distributor of orthoses materials,
we're a custom services provider. We make-to-order your
materials in convenient formats including laminates, blanks,
wedges, and blockers. We even manufacture ready-to-wear
insoles for pedorthic professionals and resellers. And we do
this daily in the country we love.

YOUR NEXT BREAK IS ON US.

We know it sounds cliché, but time is money. The time spent
preparing the basic forms from materials is time that could
be better used in the critical finishing stages or an overdue
coffee break. MatPLUS has completed the preparatory tasks
for you. Need a vacation? Browse our ready-to-wear inserts
and insoles. We'll even put your label on them for good
measure.

MP BLENDS
Our SYNERGY FOAMS™ ( p. 18 ) satisfy a wearer's multiple orthosis needs using
laminates of different materials. Another solution is to blend the DNAs of materials to
create a single material with the collective benefits of both. We call these MP BLENDS.

MP FOAM 70® CORK

Despite the advantages of modern materials, we’re sometimes nostalgic for natural
materials. Our blend of EVA and cork achieves both. MP CORK is lightweight,
flexible, and shock absorbing. Recommended as a base layer for sport orthoses.
Ideal for modifications and postings.

CLASSIC PLASTAZOTE®
For some, there’s no school like old school. They’re loyal to the reliable
materials and methods they mastered through the years. Their preferences
are still relevant despite new challengers. They are classics.

One such classic is Plastazote®. Made of cross-linked polyethylene (PE), it
is a proven staple for orthoses, including a standard material for SADMERC
approved diabetic insoles. Plastazote is lightweight, strong, and impervious
to bacteria.

Note: There are inferior PE foams referring to themselves as Plastazote.
Be assured that our PE foams are genuine Plastazote.

MP SLOW ™

MP SLOW™ urethane foam cushions fragile foot tissues.
In fact, it's a go-to orthosis material for wound care,
surgery and injured patients. Like memory foam, MP SLOW
urethane foam has a slow recovery (slow rebound). The slow
recovery is preferable when you want the foam to conform
to the wearer like a cast or bandage. And like a bandage,
MP SLOW's open cell matrix breathes, allowing tissues to
stay dry and cool. Available in sheets and rolls. Burgundy.

shield MP BLUE from abrasive forces and prolong its life. We recommend suede polyester or

synerg y [sin•er•jee]

noun.
An interaction of two or more elements that
produces an effect greater than the sum of
their individual contributions.

BECAUSE 1+1=3.

It seems illogical. Yet, when two things are combined,
they sometimes produce an effect greater than the
sum of their benefits. For such a synergy to occur,
the married materials must not cancel each other out.
Instead, they must compliment each other.
Years of trial and error have revealed some of the best
material combinations for orthoses. We captured their
synergies in convenient laminates that will save you
guesswork, labor, time and money.
Some synergies are as simple as two materials. Others
exploit the potentials of three materials. Perhaps
you’ve discovered your own synergistic recipe that you
would like us to fabricate for you. Call us to discuss.

PROTECT YOUR
INVESTMENT.

MP COVERS

Custom orthoses can be a costly investment for your
patients. Protect their orthoses appearance as you would
other valuables. Put a protective cover on it.
A flawless new orthosis can eventually develop creases,
fissures and stains that ruin its appearance. It may still
function perfectly, but it will look incapable. We stock a
wide selection of attractive and practical fabrics to protect
its appearance from time's cruelties ( p. 30 ).
Of course, vanity alone is not a virtue. Our MP NEO™ and
MP SPONGE™ top covers ( pp. 32–33 ) beautify and add
additional cushioning and hygiene benefits.

FUNCTIONAL
SHELLS

Mechanical exaggerations of the foot may require a
functional orthosis, rather than a passive orthosis, to
support or correct the foot. MatPLUS prefabricated
functional shells are an economical and instant
solution.

Shells are constructed from strong HDPE plastic or
polypropylene plastic, providing superior support
or control when foams alone would be prohibitively
bulky. Shells can be layered with foams or top covers
to create the ultimate insert or insole. MatPLUS
shells are thermo-moldable and can be re‑molded
or sculpted to fit a patient's foot precisely.
