Description
High-Density EVA Sheets for Robust Orthotic and Commercial Applications
Aortha’s A65 High-Density EVA Foam Sheet is the gold standard for strength, stability, and performance in orthotic and podiatric applications. Measuring 1000 x 1000mm, this very firm EVA foam is trusted by podiatrists, orthotists, and orthopaedic specialists across Australia for its exceptional durability and precision mouldability.
Engineered for medical-grade performance, Aortha’s EVA foam ensures consistent quality, safety, and reliability for patient care. Whether you’re fabricating custom foot orthoses, shoe lifts, wedge soles, or block heels, this material provides the robust support and structure needed for professional orthotic design and manufacture.
Key Features
- Very Firm Density (Shore A65): Provides maximum rigidity and stability — perfect for demanding orthotic and commercial applications.
- Durable Polypropylene Base: Formulated for long-lasting structural integrity and consistent mechanical performance.
- Heat Mouldable: Can be thermo-formed between 120°C and 170°C for precise custom shaping.
- Generous Sheet Size: Each sheet measures 1000 x 1000mm for efficient cutting and minimal waste.
- Versatile Applications: Commonly used for:
- Heel lifts and shoe raise corrections
- Rigid orthotic shells and wedges
- Block heels and wedge bottoms
- Industrial and commercial product fabrication
Benefits
- Precise Orthotic Support: The high-density structure offers outstanding control and load distribution.
- Shape Retention: Maintains form and stability under repeated compression and heat exposure.
- Skin-Safe and Non-Toxic: Free from harmful substances and safe for prolonged contact with the skin.
- Washable and Easy to Maintain: Resistant to moisture and simple to clean.
- Customisable Finish: Can be fine-sanded or trimmed for smooth, professional results.
Common Uses
- Heel Lifts: Ideal for adjusting leg length discrepancies and adding heel elevation within footwear.
- Rigid Orthoses: Excellent for creating firm orthotic components requiring high stability.
- Commercial Manufacturing: Suitable for various rigid foam applications across multiple industries.
Heating and Moulding Guide
The ideal thermo-moulding temperature varies based on density and thickness. Always test in stages for best results. The table below provides general guidance:
| Density (Shore A) | Material Thickness | Temperature Range | Exposure Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| A25–A35 | 15mm | 100–130°C | 30–90 seconds |
| A50 | 15mm | 110–140°C | 30–120 seconds |
| A65 | 15mm | 120–150°C | 30–140 seconds |
Tips for Best Results:
- Reduce temperature or time for thinner materials.
- Use a circulating air oven for gentler, more even heating compared to infrared systems.
- Never exceed 200°C, as EVA degradation can occur, releasing acetic acid (vinegar-like odour) and causing potential material corrosion.
Eco-Friendly and Certified Materials
Aortha’s EVA foams are manufactured by an eco-conscious supplier that achieved both the Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) and Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certifications in 2024. These globally recognised standards confirm a commitment to sustainable production, responsible sourcing, and minimising environmental impact.
With at least 20% verified recycled content and full supply chain traceability, these certifications guarantee transparency for Australian distributors and healthcare professionals. They also ensure the manufacturer upholds strict standards for ethical labour practices, workplace safety, and social responsibility.
