DARCO (Europe) GmbH Information

Always one step ahead with the original. For 30 years DARCO has been providing quality orthopaedic devices for the foot and ankle. Dr. H. Darrel Darby developed the first postoperative shoe in Huntington, WV in 1985. The starting point for what is now an international group of companies. The DARCO products can be found world-wide with operations in the US, Europe, India, and China. The list of sites was extended recently to include Great Britain. Here in Germany we’ve strengthen our position by adopting a production facility, here on site – we all benefit when it says “Made in Germany”. With years of expertise, DARCO has earned the respect and loyalty of foot surgeons and orthopaedic specialists. Today, tried and tested, DARCO is one of the world’s leading suppliers of orthopaedic devices for postoperative foot care. Our innovations have led us into broader segments such as sports medicine, physiotherapy and trauma. The interest in our elastic tapes used in kinesiology has continued to grow and now we’ve expanded our range to include MECRON by DARCO knee and other braces. Our R&D team collaborates with leading medical specialists, physiotherapists, orthopaedic technicians and product designers to develop products representing state-of-the-art technology. We integrate the latest technology and advancements into our products to continually improve the effectiveness of our devices. The cooperation with international foot surgeons, medical associations and biomechanical institutions form the foundation for our industry-defining innovations. The teamwork influences the high quality standards for our products. This is our commitment to ensure that professional users are always one step ahead.
