Introducing the X-Lite® product range, a revolutionary range of high quality, biodegradable splinting and casting materials. X-Lite® is a lightweight low temperature thermoplastic made from 100% cotton mesh that is non-toxic and fully sustainable. It provides a solution to plastic waste in multiple ways, including its durability allowing you to reheat the material any number of times, meaning that every bit of material is used. Once the patient is finished with the splint, it will biodegrade over time whether in compost or landfill, avoiding any contribution to waste.

X-Lite Material Features

• Biodegradable

A recent test of biodegradability according to ISO 148551-1 standard, showed that X-Lite® is 25% biodegraded after 90 days.

• Excellent Ventilation

The open structure in the material gives great ventilation and comfort. This allows the skin to breathe, besides providing an optimal environment for wound healing.

• Strong Material, Less Plastic

X-Lite® is an extremely strong material. Use significantly less layers of material for equal strength compared to other splinting and casting materials on the market.

• Variable Rigidity

Add layers for additional rigidity without compromising the low profile. Add strips to areas where additional reinforcement or support is desired.

• Reusable and Remouldable

Save money and time. X-Lite® can be reheated an unlimited amount of times, allowing you to reuse rolls and leftovers. Make small changes on an already made cast/splint instead of a new one costing extra money, extra time and discomfort for your patient.

X-Lite® is provided in three different options; Classic, Premium and Plus. The choice of product depends on the clinical indication and preference.

X-Lite Classic

X-Lite Classic is the original X-Lite® material. The large mesh openings give great ventilation. As the strongest material in our range, you can use it for any cast or splint of your choice.
