Orthopox epoxy resin

Ideal for fabricating lightweight yet exceptionally sturdy prostheses and orthoses

Orthopox lamination resin is a transparent, epoxy-based resin for fabricating thin-walled, sturdy laminates using lamination technology. Like prepreg technology, it ensures a very high component quality and higher structural strength than acrylic resins thanks to excellent impregnation and bonding to the reinforcement fibres. The curing time of the lamination resin can be controlled by the temperature, and the component can be individually coloured with the Ottobock colour pastes.
