Medalin Prosthetics
Medalin Prosthetic Services was founded in 1994 and is now the UK’s leading manufacturer of prosthetic sleeves and socks. The equipment used to produce our range of prosthetic garments is unique to the industry and has been specifically developed using our in house expertise. It has been designed to give the highest standards of quality and repeatability. High quality materials and strict quality controls ensure Medalin branded products are the finest in the industry. We use only the highest quality long fibre-combed cotton spun to our own specification which gives a softer skin feel. Combining this with materials such as Lycra® brings enhanced standards of comfort and fit to the wearer. We work closely with our customers to continuously update and improve our product ranges, most recently developing the Ultra Wide Terry and Ultra Wide Terry Prosthetic Sock ranges for use with the Silicone Lock-Pin system.
We have used our expertise in manufacturing prosthetic sleeves to develop the Wellness Comfort range which incorporates Diabetic and Oedema socks which are sold in the UK and Internationally. We use our medical expertise to produce the highest quality socks for everyday wear supplying some of the UK’s very best companies.
