Manufacturing of a Tricolor-Socket with Streifyflex Color

Permanently elastic thermo-forming film: Streifyflex Color
Streifyflex is part of the LDPE (lower density PE) family. Because of its lower density, it can optimally be processed as “soft” material. Excellent forming and welding possibilities and the large colour range make Streifyflex the material of choice for innovative orthotic and prosthetic care products
