From the jury's assessment
An innovative “seat belt” for joints – made in Germany. The innovative Betterguards system offers a high level of joint protection while at the same time allowing freedom of movement – depending on the situation. It can be integrated into supports, shoes, gloves and protectors. Tested in medical technology using an ankle-roll platform and movement analysis. “Optimum protection with maximum freedom of movement, because you don't notice you are wearing a support until the moment you need it.”
- protection from injury within a few milliseconds (faster than the muscle)
- more than two million cycles possible
- matched to the application area and the anatomy
- greater protection than rigid systems and very comfortable
- natural movement pattern and greater freedom of movement than bandages
- no influence of temperature on performance
