Impactwear® Hip Protectors prevent fall related hip fractures
Simulated experiments have shown that the force
generated during a fall is greater than the strength of the hip
bones. In addition the bones of older people are often brittle (caused
by osteoporosis). If the impact of the fall is onto the hip area,
the hip is likely to fracture.
Using high performing material technology Impactwear® Hip Protectors
enable strong and effective hip protection. The Hip Protectors are
designed to absorb and deflect the impact energy away from vulnerable
bones in a fall onto the hip area.
