How to choose the right compression stockings

Which VENOSAN® compression stocking is right for me?

A common misconception is that the number assigned to each model of Venosan is a measure of compression e.g 7000 being stronger than 4000 etc.
This is not the case. The numbers reflect the chronology of each model’s introduction. The compression in each model is the same and all adhere to the strict guidelines and testing which confers European class to all the garments. Below is a quick guide to the difference between each model. All come in European Class I and III. For Class III, please contact us.

This stocking has the X-Static fibre® which is made from pure silver with no chemical additives. The silver kills bacteria and this effect remains even after 250 washes. Having a stocking with antibacterial properties is beneficial as it promotes hygiene of the feet and legs, acts as a deodorant and can prevent the occurrence of infection. The silver also conducts heat away from the legs so keeps the legs cool during warm weather and its reflective properties ensures body heat is retained during cold weather.
The silver in the stocking prevents the build-up of static which can be a problem for those with restricted mobility.
