The quality of our styles and materials is subject to constant
testing. Before production even begins, strict tests are
conducted. You can rest assured that our products have the
promised longevity when subjected to rigorous demands. Only
long lasting products offer visual and palpable quality.
Durability of footbeds and soles is checked with the help
of an endurance test device. A number of claws imitate the
strain placed on the material by daily walking. 100,000
trouble free bendings must be executed. Resistance to electricity,
water, oil, and grease as well as abrasion and heat are
also simulated and extensively tested under conditions as
close to reality as possible. Only after repeated testing
under the same conditions and if all demands are completely
met is the production finally released for production.
Only the best natural raw materials are used. High quality
cork grains from the bark of the cork oak tree in combination
with latex harvested from the resin of the rubber tree.
Alpro foam suits best for our soft footbeds because of it's
flexible and shock absorbing properties.
