Össur are an Icelandic company founded in 1971 and now enjoy a truly global presence, with bases in over 30 international locations throughout Europe, American and Asia. The carbon neutral company is regarded as the gold standard in the prosthetic and orthotic sector and keep pushing the boundaries to develop some of the most effective and innovative injury solutions available.
Orthotix form part of healthcare group, PTH Enterprises which also owns Dacey Orthotic Solutions (DOS), who manufacture and supply bespoke and stock orthotic product to contracted and partnership NHS clinics across the UK. DOS currently employs over 15 Orthotists and directly supplies many more in-house orthotic clinics with a variety of off-the-shelf product from Orthotix. Despite the ever-increasing range of products now available from Orthotix there is still a substantial requirement for additional clinically backed technical product, specialist services and expert training. To ensure all stakeholders receive best value, we are delighted to announce that Össur have officially become a preferred partner to help Orthotix deliver this requirement.
