Horizon 2015 SME

Last December Industrias Losal, S.L. has received a grant from the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, within the framework of the call Horizon 2015 SME, for the implementation of CustomPPE project, consisting on the development, manufacture and marketing of safety shoes with orthopedic soles for personal protective equipment, compatible with standards ISO 20345: 2011 and ISO 20347: 2012, required by the Safety and Occupational Health regulation.

In PHASE I it is determined the market potential for II and III category of PPE, whose turnover, in Western Europe, stood, in the year 2011, in 34,7 million of pairs, with an expected rate of growth of 2,1% for the period between 2011 and 2016. This would be to create a network of cooperation with podiatrists, prosthetic technicians, suppliers of materials and a certification body to ensure compliance with international standards. It will develop a plan of technical feasibility in the line of safety shoes that responds to most occupations in terms of safety, and, once established the main problems that occur in the feet, a study of insoles to solve these problems, which will include the type of necessary materials and configuration of the same. Certification is requested by tolerances with previous results. They will present an application for registration of footwear PPE to ensure the intellectual property of its line of footwear. The development of the footwear lines basic security to a new line LSU, for a specific sector of the population, is given by the neglect of people with foot problems. This represents, approximately, 3,5 million potential users in Western Europe.

In PHASE II it will proceed to the development of the business model and the online tool to design a complex template from exploration foot. From this platform, the client can choose the design of shoes from a pre-selected range of materials depending on the category of condition. Health professionals have an online platform for autonomously prescribe templates within certain tolerances certification. The process has been tested in several patients, thanks to the collaboration with podiatrists and manufacturers templates.
