PIP (Integral Foot Protection)

The challenge

The Maresme Health Consortium is developing a comprehensive foot protector that prevents the appearance of pressure ulcers.

PIP (Integral Foot Protection) is a new medical product developed by Eurecat and the Hospital of Mataró that provides comprehensive foot protection, not just for the heel. It has demonstrated highly effective pressure absorption thanks to the use of 3D fabric, which helps cushion the pressure.

PIP offers improvements in terms of reusability, as unlike thermoformed protectors, it can be reused. This feature makes it especially appealing for the home care sector.
