Aortha PPC Polypropylene Sheet for Orthotic Fabrication

Aortha PPC is a copolymer polypropylene thermoplastic sheet designed for orthotic and prosthetic fabrication. This versatile material offers an excellent balance of rigidity, flexibility and durability, making it suitable for a wide range of orthotic devices.

PPC is known for its ability to withstand pressure and repeated movement while returning to its original shape without fatigue. This makes it a reliable choice for orthoses that require both strength and resilience in everyday use.

Key Features

• Copolymer polypropylene (PPC) orthotic sheet
• Lightweight with good rigidity and flexibility
• Excellent impact and fatigue resistance
• Returns to shape without distortion
• Suitable for repeated loading and dynamic use
• Typical thermoforming temperature: 180–200°C

Applications

Aortha PPC is widely used in orthotic workshops for the fabrication of AFOs (ankle foot orthoses), KAFOs (knee ankle foot orthoses), foot orthoses and other supportive devices. Its durability and resilience make it particularly suitable for dynamic orthoses and applications where repeated stress is expected.

This material is commonly chosen by orthotists and technicians who require a dependable thermoplastic that provides both structural support and flexibility for long-term clinical use.
