TYPES OF SHOE INSOLES MATERIALS 

RESINS AND THERMOPLASTICS

One of the multiple systems for making custom insoles is to make the base, which supports them, with rigid materials to a greater or lesser extent, and can be in most cases molded by heat.

The most commonly used in podiatry are the polyester resins because they have many advantages: they are economic, easy to work at low temperatures, they can be fused together without the need of an adhesive, and they even allow Direct Adaptation Techniques (D.A.T.).

Some of the most popular and used resins are: HERFLEX, HERFLUX and MOUSSE.

Thermoplastics are used quite a lot. Laboratorios Herbitas has a type of POLIPROPILENE, that is specially designed for an orthopedic use.

BASE WEDGES

These materials tend to be harder and more consistent. They are used as a base and also for making stabilizing or corrective wedges.  

Laboratorios Herbitas has the following products: EVASTAR PREMIUM HARD, HERBILEN SL, HERBILIEGERE FORTE or EVADUR.

EVA LINING

These are the most commonly used materials. These products are used for the lining of insoles in contact with the foot and for this reason they tend to be softer and more comfortable.

Moreover, they can have quite bold or trendy colors. Also, they are smooth and sometimes perforated.

Laboratorios Herbitas has an extensive catalogue with the following brands to highlight: EVASTAR, HERBIFORM, EVA MARMOL, MULTICOLOR, HERBILEN, PODOSOFT and so on.

LININGS

There are also many materials that build this family. They are usually microfiber or synthetic materials, although we also have natural leathers.

The following products are available in Laboratorios Herbitas: GRAPHYTE, available in different colors. ON STEAM available in different colors; absorbs and distributes sweat. NATURAL LEATHER, FANTASY lining, SYNTHETICS, NON-SLIP, SOLAR SPECIAL, that allows air to pass through, CAIMAN SILVER with silver threads and CHILD FANTASY.

TECHNICAL MATERIALS

This interesting group is formed by a type of very technical and sophisticated materials with specific properties for each purpose.

PORON NORMAL is a shock absorber; this material does not stop the footstep and does not deform with impacts. In addition, this material has open cells, allowing perspiration to pass through it.

There are other materials derived from PORON that are SLOW MEMORY, such as HERBIBPREX and HERBIPREX LITE, which absorb the impact, but recover their shape slowly, like a viscoelastic.

Other technical materials are CHOC and CHOC PLUS, which also fully absorb the impact. ORTHOLITE is an excellent shock-absorbing and very light material.

What others materials do is to be PROPELLERS, that is to say, they return the impact without subtracting energy. These are instances of the materials mentioned before: EVASPORT, CAPITONER, PROSPORT, EVASTAR PROPULSOR and EVASTAR REBOLASTIC.

NORA

The NORA family, which is very complete, stands out above all for its quality.

SIDAS PODIATECH

Laboratorios Herbitas also distributes the full range of Podiatech materials, which is very extensive and of high quality.

SECOLINO

This proprietary material is specially designed for people with severe sweating problems. It is a three-layer lining. The first of them, in contact with the foot, has perforations that allow sweat to pass through. The second layer acts as a passage membrane in one direction and is also germ protective.

Finally, the third layer is the one that absorbs and stores the liquid, being ready again the next day. These layers are sewn rather than glued, so that there are not intermediate barriers.
