 "One in two woman and one in four men over 50 will have an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetime."          » National Institutes of Health

Hip Protectors that need replacement after one impact or one laundry cycle drain your budget. ProtectaHip® Hip Protectors last more than 50 times longer than other hip protectors. Choose the best for your safety and your budget. Choose ProtectaHip®.

• Proven Superior Safety Effectiveness.  ProtectaHip® hip protectors are engineered for optimal safety by ASTM standards and designed for proper placement and generous protection against 3 critical sites of hip fractures surrounding the Greater Trochanter.

         ASTM IMPACT ABSORPTION  Less is More!
     The Lower the Number, the Greater the Protection 
ProtectaHip® hip protectors are engineered with only the highest quality of materials for optimal safety wet or dry. Others use foams that rupture when wet and require Warning Labels. Compare Plum's Number to the other brands: Plum's number is as low as 79, compared with 212.5 and 341.5 That's how much more impact energy is reaching the hip.
                A number above 200 is dangerous.
While no hip protector can guarantee protection from all impacts or injuries, Plum is committed to engineering only the highest quality of materials for safety effectiveness, rugged dependability, and lightweight comfort.
