At the Sidas production site in St Etienne de Saint Geoirs, each custom orthotic insole is cut and assembled by hand to guarantee that the manufacturing process is monitored and controlled. Each material used to make the orthotic is allocated a batch number and safety data sheet.
A SIDAS custom orthotic insole comprises of multiple layers of materials which are combined and then later moulded to your feet. This allows the production of 100% custom orthotic in a short period of time. In 24 hours, you can walk away with a new pair of custom orthotic insoles.
The unique placement of materials on different areas of the orthotic provides a necessary feature for that stage of movement.
The Process
Your podiatrist will conduct a comprehensive assessment of your foot type, activity, footwear, any pathology you may have and then will select the perfect custom orthotic insole for you.
After the selection process, the insole will be heated and thermoformed to your feet, creating a 100% custom product specifically for you.
Your Podiatrist will then customise and do any extra required modifications before fitting them into your desired footwear. The end result is an aesthetic, washable, personalised insole.
