Low-Temperature Thermoplastics (LTTP): Smart Materials for Patient Comfort

Low-temperature thermoplastics (LTTP) are widely used to create custom splints, braces, and supports for patients.
These materials become moldable when heated at low temperatures — typically in water between 60°C and 75°C.
Unlike high-temperature plastics, LTTP can be placed directly on the patient’s skin while being shaped, ensuring a faster and more comfortable fitting process.

Modern Orthopedic Solutions

Today’s orthopedic care is moving away from rigid, long-term casting materials such as plaster.
Instead, modern “dynamic” treatment methods focus on flexibility — combining short periods of immobilization with gentle movement and controlled stress on the bone to promote healing.

LTTP materials make this approach possible.
They are easy to apply, remove, and re-mold, allowing doctors to adjust treatment as the patient recovers.
This flexibility supports faster recovery, functional therapy, and greater comfort — without compromising stability or safety.


Orthotic Thermoplastics


Turbocast®
TURBOCAST® is a unique low temperature thermoplastic material with thin foam coating on both sides. It is ideal for splinting, casting and bracing applications.


Turbocast® Ortho
Turbocast® Ortho turns transparent when heated which is an excellent indication that the material is ready for application.


Turbocast® Ortho Non Sticky
A versatile type of thermoplastic material that can support a wide range of immobilization applications. Both soft and stiff versions are available depending on the size and stretch requirements of the fabricated orthoses.


Turbocast® Rolls
The product, a thermoplastic material with foam coating, is designed to be applied as a first aid for immobilization of the injuries to fingers and wrist.


Turbocast® strips
Turbocast® product family is based on a very flexible thermoplastic material with foam coating on both sides and is used widely in occupational therapy, casting, orthotics and other medical applications.


IMMO+
This thermoplastic material combines complete conformability and optimal stretch resistance. The material becomes transparent when heated in a water bath and super strong when it cools to the room temperature. 


IMMO+ Non Sticky
This material  has a thin surface coating that prevents accidental self-adherence during molding. It is an easy to use splinting material with additional working time and full plastic memory.


B-cast
This thermoplastic was designed for moderate resistance to stretching that allows the splint-maker to fabricate any type of splints without material over-stretch, as well as to maintain control over the entire molding process.


Beachcast
Opaque-when-heated material that was engineered to provide superior draping qualities! BEACHCAST is a rigid and light-weight thermoplastic that does not shrink.


Turbotreat Comfort
Velvet-like coating provides extra comfort and increases patient compliance. This material was developed specifically for patients that need optimal comfort combined with the full functionality of the device.


Express Immobilization


Universal Fixation Splint (Patented)
The Universal Fixation Splint (UFS) System are pre-fabricated orthoses manufactured from cork-based polymer. The devices are designed for reliable immobilization of the extremities.


Thermoplastic Pre-cuts
Pre-cuts of thermoplastic materials, so-called "splint blanks", are convenient patterns that would save your time and money.


Soft Goods


Braces and Splints
T-Tape Company in cooperation with Ortopedijos Klinika (Lithuania) designs, develop and manufactures a diverse range of the innovative splints and braces.
