The Qadam Carbon Semi Rigid Shell is a heat-mouldable carbon graphite orthotic designed for O&P clinicians and technicians who require stronger functional support with efficient workshop finishing. Supplied as an orthotic blank, it can be moulded over a positive cast or shaped directly to the patient’s foot, giving clinicians flexibility across semi-custom and custom foot orthotic workflows.
With a 25mm heel cup, the Qadam Carbon Semi Rigid Shell supports rearfoot containment, heel stability, and improved control during stance and gait. Its carbon graphite construction provides a durable, lightweight, and low-bulk platform for patients who require firmer support than a semi-flexible shell while still allowing practical heat adjustment and clinical modification.
For orthotic workshops, podiatry services, rehabilitation centres, and O&P clinics, this shell is easy to grind, trim, and finish, helping technicians produce clean, professional orthotic devices with consistent results. It is suitable for everyday clinical use where a stronger carbon-based shell is needed for functional alignment, stability, and long-term support.
