We test and evaluate medical compression textiles.
With decades of experience as a pioneer in testing compression - for medical and performance applications - Hohenstein testing provides professional and neutral proof of effectiveness for medical compression products and certification. Our accredited testing can serve as recognition and reimbursement from health insurance companies, proof of compliance with the EU Medical Device regulation or as customized product development.
With our specially developed HOSYcan testing device, we measure and evaluate the pressure and pressure profile of compression textile products, compare materials and designs and analyze recovery rate. Products are tested specifically and reliably to the standards and evaluated according to the declared compression classes.
