Our Insole blanks > Novaped S90 carbon edition




NovaPED S90 carbon edition - A new age
Across Germany, the insole remains the most widespread form of aid. Around 18 % of the population – so 11.6 million people in Germany – wear insoles. Furthermore, many patients would like to own a second or third pair of insoles so that they can fit them into several pairs of shoes. (Source: eurocom e. V.)

Reason enough for us to reformat recognised supply concepts and to supplement these with a cutting-edge material: carbon.

Carbon fibres are industrially manufactured fibres made of carbonaceous raw materials with very high stability and rigidity, as well as low elongation at break. The finest carbon fibres are woven into a mesh and saturated in a liquid resin mixture. Through pressure and temperature, a composite is created for the highest quality and performance requirements that is already successfully used in aviation and aerospace technology, as well as the automobile and sports equipment industries.

We have taken advantage of the outstanding material properties to construct our NovaPED S90 carbon orthopaedic foot supports. They can therefore meet demands that are particularly significant for several indications.

The manufacture of the carbon mesh is very elaborate because it responds extremely sensitively to external influences in its unprocessed form and only has a limited shelf life. In addition, the geometry of the mesh structure plays a decisive role during the production process in terms of its stability and elasticity.

Its unusual properties are characteristic of carbon, and no other material can offer this combination.


The combination of carbon and our S90 insole technology provides several advantages:
  • dimensional stability
  • extremely thin and light
  • flexible heel
  • edgeless transitions
  • non-slip protective film


Business


Even at work, a heavy load is placed on our feet every day. To prevent overload damage or reduce already existing complaints, we developed the NovaPED business insole blanks specially for business shoes. With their shape and their very small design height, they are adapted to current shoe fashion.

They can be used for indications such as:
  • Pes valgus
  • Skew foot
  • Metatarsalgia
  • Mild claw foot

sports - Running / Walking / Nordic Walking


The growing number of running enthusiasts has also led to an increase in running-specific strain injuries.

With the NovaPED S90 carbon insole blanks for the areas of running, walking and Nordic walking, numerous complaints can be avoided in advance by, for example, countering increased pronation in the ankle joint.

They can be used for indications such as:
  • Achilles tendon complaints
  • Tarsal tunnel syndrome
  • Knee pain
  • Pes valgus
  • Splay-foot
  • Overpronation

sports - Football / Cycling


Football
Shifting patterns of movement in the lower extremities when playing football lead to injury and strain. Often, poorly fitting football boots are a contributing factor in the development of complaints. The NovaPED S90 carbon football insole improves the fit and comfort, and helps to prevent injury.

They can be used for indications such as:
  • Pes valgus
  • Splay-foot
  • Forefoot complaints


Cycling
In cycling, the forefoot in particular is subjected to constant strain. This can lead to painful pressure points and nerve irritation (e.g. pins and needles). The special construction of the NovaPED S90 carbon insole blanks for cycling helps to relieve overstrained foot structures, stabilise the foot and knee, and improve the transfer of force to the pedals.

They can be used for indications such as:
  • Pes valgus
  • Splay-foot

special - Hallux Rigidus


Arthrotic changes can lead to reduced movement in the joint at the base of the big toe in the case of hallux limitus, as well as stiffening in the case of hallux rigidus. The range of movement and X-ray findings will determine the stage of the affliction. Light pressure and movement are generally sufficient to induce severe pain in the swollen and inflamed joint. Compensatory adduction of the foot and rolling onto its outer edge lead to changes in the physiological gait.

Among the causes of hallux limitus or rigidus are muscular imbalances, mechanical strain of the first metatarsal bone and hypermobility of the first metatarsal and phalanges. Other frequent causes are inflammation in the wake of rheumatism or infection.

The NovaPED S90 carbon insole blanks in the Special line stand out thanks to their thin and sturdy stiffening springs under the first metatarsal and phalanges. These reduce the pressures exerted on the joint, thereby minimising pain and restoring the normal gait. Holding the joint in a fixed position alleviates the pain, thus allowing the inflammation to heal.

Special - Hallux rigidus


Hallux rigidus describes the restriction in movement of the metatarsophalangeal joint, a situation usually caused by arthrosis. The course of the hallux rigidus is progressive and causes increasing pain in the metatarsophalangeal joint.

The main functional feature of insole treatment for hallux rigidus is the rigidus spring. This “splints” the metatarsophalangeal joint and thus limits its mobility. By doing this, the forces are transferred from the joint to the stiffening material. Since the strength of the rigidus spring should be adapted to the severity of the hallux rigidus, our rigidus carbon insoles are available in a flexible and a rigid version.

When manufacturing rigid springs, material thickness must also be taken into account in addition to the desired stability. The extremely thin and light carbon construction of the insoles reduce the volume that is so important in the shoe only by a minimum. This leaves more space for padding elements and of course the foot itself.

When it comes to the design of the insole chassis, a long rigidus spring is available in a narrow and wide outline.

This long rigidus spring is available in a flexible or fixed version and effectively relieves the metatarsophalangeal joint with its long lever. However, the mobility of the joint at the end of the big toe, which, as a connection joint, can partially compensate for the limited movement of the metacarpophalangeal joint, must also be taken into account. For this reason, a version with a short fixed rigidus spring is also available, which does not unnecessarily extend the front biomechanical lever and thus enables a natural rolling movement.

Depending on the space available in the shoe, there is the option of 1.5 mm or 3 mm thin padding with a cut-out for the big toe area. Besides the pleasant padding effect, the cut-out for the big toe area provides additional relief of the metatarsophalangeal joint.

If hallux rigidus is only present on one side, the base joint on the opposite side should not become unnecessarily limited in movement by a rigidus spring. For this reason, a suitable compensating insole was developed for each rigidus insole, wide and narrow, without the rigidus spring.

Special - Plantar Fasciitis


Excessive tensile and compressive forces can cause inflammation of the arch-supporting band of tissue at the bottom of the foot (plantar fasciitis). This painful condition in the heel area often leads to ossification of the area where the plantar fascia is attached (heel spur).

The purpose of an insole for plantar fasciitis is to support the arch structures in such a way that the foot does not sink excessively during the stress phase. This reduces the tensile forces acting on the tendon. At the same time, the area where the heel and tendon attach must be relieved in order to reduce the painful pressure at these points.

The two new plantar fasciitis insoles effectively support the arch of the foot due to their particularly thin and light carbon construction.

Plantar fasciitis insole with heel spur cut-out
On the one hand, an insole blank with a conventional shape and heel spur cut-out is available. This model is characterised by its high comfort and the extremely thin construction. The blank can also be supplied with 1.5 mm thin padding and a separate relief pad on the foot side.

Plantar fasciitis insole with heel spur cut-out, tendon cut-out and padded ring on shoe side
In addition, a plantar fasciitis insole was developed that leaves space for the heel and the course of the tendon. In this model, a specially developed shoe-side pad ring is integrated into the insole chassis. This acts as shock absorber for the chassis and reduces the pressure in the heel and tendon attachment area extremely effectively. The insole can be manufactured as a base with a multi-layer heel pad or with additional 1.5 mm thin padding.
