There is a human bond and care involved in the manufacture of handmade products which is absent in mass-produced products. The goods are made one by one, combining emotional talents and proven processes of traditional craftsmanship. This ‘handmade’ approach creates less waste and uses far less energy. Using the same handmade techniques as in 1992 means that our manufacturing process is environmentally friendly which is not possible with mass plastic manufacturing.
As a material, leather provides essential characteristics which help to enhance the quality of life of amputees. Due to significant demand, we continue to use leather for sockets and hip joints. We source our leather from responsible sources, with full traceability back to those sources.
