Iranian Nanotechnology-Based Shoe Insoles Superior to French Rivals
In addition to producing medical insoles based on nanotechnology and supplying them with higher quality and one-tenth of the price of the French model, the company also introduced a foot scanning device, which can be used to provide suitable insoles based on the shape of the foot.
Sweating and foot odor are problems of long-term use of shoes. Insoles are no exception to this rule, so they may smell after use. As a result, it is necessary to replace the sole or wash it.
This issue is very important for diabetic patients because if they have foot ulcers and use insoles, the accumulation of bacteria in the wound area is inevitable and causes infection, which has risks and costs for diabetics.
Antibacterial properties obtained by using silver nanoparticles in the shoe insoles prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi
In the first step, the company used fabrics that had nanomaterials already placed on them.
In the second step, a device was built that could spray nanoparticles on the insoles.
Then, by applying heat, nanoparticles were stabilized on the sole. In addition, a deodorizing solution was put on the product.
Similar to these insoles that are produced in Iran, they are produced in France, the price of which is around 46 euros, while the Iranian product is sold at around 3 euros.
The foot scanning device can provide special insoles according to the arch of the foot. In fact, with the help of this device, different foot arches can be filled using insoles.
People usually go to orthopedists to have their feet scanned in order to get the insoles they need, this is expensive.
Braced insoles and special insoles for diabetic patients are among other products of the company whose technology has been patented.
