"Our mission is to help people recover and maintain their physical mobility."
— Sporlastic mission statement
Where it started
Two worlds, one thread.
Sporlastic's story is rooted in the HAUBER Group — the same Nürtingen-based family business behind fashion house LUISA CERANO. Founded in 1870 by Ferdinand Hauber, the company has spent over 150 years working the same textile expertise into two very different worlds: fashion, and orthopaedics.
That combination — fabric, cut, and clinical knowledge — is what shows up in every Sporlastic support: garments engineered like performance apparel, built to a medical brief.
"We know that the best results are only achieved when skills complement each other."
150 years, five generations
From a Nürtingen workshop to Canadian clinics.
