Stay relaxed with compression textiles.

Long journeys in the car, on the bus, train or in an aeroplane mostly mean sitting for a long time. This can have a fairly negative effect on the legs and in the worst case scenario, lead to travel thrombosis. Support and travel socks should help to prevent this. But the demand for other compression textiles such as bandages for ankles, knees, elbows and wrists is also great. Not only in the area of medicine: Healthy people like athletes like to use them to maintain or improve their performance. That is why we want to help you with our independent compression tests to credibly prove the compression effect of your materials or products. We measure both the compression effect and the compression path over a defined range.


We test and eval­u­ate me­di­cal com­pres­sion tex­tiles for you.

The market for compression textiles is growing - not least in the area of medicine. As an authorized test center of the Quality Mark Association for Medical Compression Hosiery, we measure and evaluate the pressure of compression goods with the specially developed HOSYcan testing device. With this device, the pressure and pressure profile of compression textiles can be tested specifically and reliably according to RAL-GZ 387, parts 1 to 3 or DIN 58133 and evaluated according to the declared compression classes. Our expert opinions serve as a basis for recognition and reimbursement of costs by the statutory health insurance companies (keyword: "aid number"). Benefit from our profound, long-term know-how and offer your customers independent proof of the medical compression effect of your products!

How we test.

Compression testing with our HOSYcan system is non-destructive and is always applied over the entire length of the test item. Arm and leg stockings, shirts and pants up to a total length of 100 cm and a circumference of 12 to 150 cm can be tested in almost any freely selectable form. HOSYcan offers versatile evaluation and testing options, such as the determination of the compression effect in motion. Take advantage of the benefits of our HOSYcan test system and convince your customers of the independently tested quality of your high-grade products. Of course, in addition to medical products, we also check compression textiles for other applications - e.g. sportswear and shapewear. For clothing, tests on sleeves as well as leg, torso and trouser parts are possible.

What we test.

The pressure that textiles exert on certain parts of the body depends on the intended effect of the product. The decisive factor here is that the pressure values defined according to RAL-GZ 387 and aimed for by the manufacturer unfold over the entire course of the textile worn. We test the following products for you:

Medical compression stockings for arms and legs and stocking systems

Bandages for ankles, knees, elbows and wrists

Clothing for scar compression, also for body/trunk

All this - and much more!

In addition to medical applications, we also test sportswear with a compressive effect and shapewear for you!
