The Products

The Company

Algeo's was founded in 1896 as a leather and grindery factory supplying Liverpool's large numbers of shoemakers.

In 1989 the company took a new turn and specialised in supplying products for orthopaedic footwear. It then moved on to cover all aspects of orthotic manufacture and have grown over the past eight years into the UK's leading supplier of orthopaedic materials and components.

The Ethical Statement

The purpose of a functional orthotic device is to alter the biomechanics of the limb to which it is applied. It is important that a corrective orthotic device is prescribed by a trained clinician.

We have information on all our products and are happy to answer any request for technical support or general assistance. However all our materials and components are supplied on the basis that the customer understand the concepts of orthotic treatment.

It is algeo's policy to refuse to supply directly to the general public.

What is an Orthosis?

An orthotic appliance is a device attached to a limb to alter the biomechanical function, either by altering the way the limb functions or by stabilising its position.

Algeo's supplies materials and components for all types of orthotics for all areas of the body.
