Description

PORON® Medical urethanes are engineered, medium-density, microcellular foams (cell size ~100 microns) designed for long-lasting comfort and protection. PORON® 4708 was developed for the footcare industry and is widely used in orthopaedic and prosthetic applications, including custom orthotics, prefabricated devices, prosthetic padding, and other biomechanical supports.  

PORON® 4708 has passed multiple medical assessments for biological response and is approved by the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA). It delivers the soft-tissue supplement clinicians expect while maintaining durability and consistent performance over time.

Key Features

  • Long-term comfort – Resilient cushioning that maintains feel and function over extended use.
  • Compression-set resistance – Helps retain thickness and shock-absorbing properties.
  • Open-cell, breathable – Promotes air exchange to support a drier in-shoe environment.
  • Microcellular structure (~100 µm) – Consistent, uniform cushioning.
  • Fungal resistant – Suitable for prolonged wear in footwear interiors.

Typical Applications

  • Footbeds and covered foot orthotics
  • Sockliners for comfort and shock absorption
  • Tongue padding and collar cushions
  • Ankle pads and cushion counters
  • Shock-absorbing footpads
