Silicone AFOs


Award Winning

SAFO (Silicone Ankle Foot Orthosis) was developed in the UK as an alternative treatment for patients challenged with dropfoot. SAFO is a patented, medical grade silicone AFO. Recipient of the esteemed Queens Award, the highest award for British business innovation, more than 10,000 patients are benefiting from its unique design and material properties

Made in the USA

Hanger Fabrication Network is committed to providing state of the art O&P technology and services. We are pleased to offer silicone AFOs (SiAFO™) and are excited to bring this innovative AFO alternative to you and your patients.

  • SiAFO: Allows controlled physiological tri-planar motion
  • Improves Sensory Feedback
  • Facilitates joint receptor response impacting Proprioception and Balance
  • Dampens movement without inhibiting
  • Greater distribution of impact, weight, bearing forces and shear distribution
  • Improved cosmesis
