Manufacture
Currently 10 highly skilled orthotic technicians are employed and
work on site.
S.G. Bull & Co. have an active programme of training technicians
to develop their skills and to be competent in different areas of
orthotic manufacture. Having multi skilled orthotic technicians
enables the organisation to change the manufacturing to suit the
current level of demand.
All plastic and metal orthoses are made on site, along with all
footwear adaptations and repairs. S.G. Bull & Co. is the only orthotic
company that manufacture surgical footwear on site in Northern Ireland.
The manufacture of all bespoke footwear and orthoses on site enables
the orthotists to communicate at all times face to face with the
manufacturing technicians to ensure the best most appropriate product
is made. The most dramatic impact of this operating system is the
very low rework rate of 2 percent as opposed to an industry standard
of 10 percent.
