Based since its inception in the Saint-Etienne region of France, the THUASNE company has become an expert in narrow elastic textile techniques. The company took a major strategic change of direction back in 1950, when it chose to become a producer of high added-value, high-tech finished products for the medical market: "elastic compression products". Today, THUASNE makes elastic compression bandages, medical belts, adhesive and cohesive bandages, orthoses (medical ankle and knee braces), medical compression stockings and tights, along with orthoses and underwear designed especially for athletes and to help people resume sports.
With a firm focus on the medical and sports sectors, the THUASNE Group has pursued its strategy of industrial integration and the development of its distribution capacity, hinged around a major theme: "movement therapeutics". It designs, produces and distributes – under its own brands – a range of technical products designed to protect athletes. THUASNE, which has always emphasised production quality and partnership with prescribers, is now the market leader in medical and sports textiles.
