Ortek massage mats - how do we differ from our competitors?
Orthopedic mats are not new to the market. Many people — especially parents of young children — already know how beneficial it is to walk barefoot on uneven surfaces. It strengthens foot muscles, helps form a proper arch, prevents flat feet and valgus deformity, supports correct posture, and trains balance and coordination. Walking barefoot on sand, pebbles, grass, or massage mats is a great alternative when natural landscapes are not available.
Orthopedic mats are universal and popular, so it is no surprise that they have been produced for many years.
We started manufacturing mats in Ukraine about 10 years ago. We use high-quality and safe European raw materials; Ortek orthopedic mats have undergone strict clinical testing in laboratories in Poland and Ukraine and have received CE conformity declarations in Europe.
Over the years, we have significantly expanded the range of Ortek mat sets, created many different series, and firmly established ourselves in the European market. At the same time, we have remained the same team where everyone — from the salesperson to the manager — is involved in creating each new product. We carefully select shapes and textures, test each mat with our own feet, and control quality at every stage of production. Just like in the beginning, we thoughtfully consider what can bring the greatest benefit to our customers, listen to requests and feedback, and continuously search for new ideas and solutions.
What do Ortek massage mats have that no competitor offers?
1. Mat sets with the board game “Forest Adventures”
The key to the effectiveness of orthopedic mats is regular practice and exercises on the puzzle mats. But how do you motivate a child to do this? We created a video with exercises that a child can simply follow, as well as an additional board game. By completing game tasks, children practice on the mats in a fun and relaxed way. The game can be played together by up to 4 people. During the game, children meet fairy-tale characters — some help, others create more challenging tasks, making the process even more engaging.
2. Unique triangular rotating puzzle mats
A straight path is boring. What about wavy lines, ovals, or circles? With our new development, there are no limits to creating any shapes. You can design routes around furniture, corners, save space in a room, and most importantly — stimulate children’s imagination and interest in mat exercises.
3. Puzzle mats with removable elements
A puzzle mat only for feet? Who said so? We created removable elements that attach to the puzzle base like a mosaic. The “Patterns” series is already available — each element has its own unique texture and shape, stimulating feet and palms in different ways. When a child touches various surfaces, the brain learns to distinguish sensations without visual cues, which develops sensory memory. Attaching the elements also requires finger dexterity, helping develop fine motor skills. And of course, the “Patterns” puzzle works as a massage mat for feet — the elements are securely fixed.
The “Pebbles” series will also be available soon, featuring individual colorful stones that allow you to create your own pebble beach.
Many more ideas — ours and our customers’ — are still ahead.
