Get Sustainable With INSITE® EcoComfort® Foam

INSITE® EcoComfort® foams are made with up to 70% plant-based content – the highest level of bio content on the insole market today. But we go beyond using sustainable materials. Through our partnership with Susterra®, which facilitates the Truterra® program, our plant-based materials are sourced and processed responsibly, resulting in cradle-to-gate sustainability benefits.

Insite Insoles foams

Susterra sources U.S. dent corn through regenerative agriculture practices supported by the Truterra program.

The dent corn is made into Susterra bio-propanediol, which 
is used to create our insole 
foam materials.

Susterra biopropanediol replaces some of the main petrochemical ingredients in traditional polyurethane, saving carbon emissions and non-renewable energy use. 

Our own manufacturing practices, such as using solution-dyed textiles and poured PU, further reduce manufacturing and natural resource waste.

No Compromises on Performance

Thanks to its unique chemical structure, Susterra bio-propanediol actually improves an insole’s overall flexibility and rebound.

Plus, INSITE® EcoComfort® foams are uniquely designed to mimic the cushioning and responsiveness of human foot tissue, enhancing a wearer’s experience with your footwear. We apply biomechanics research and testing methods to select and refine the ideal EcoComfort® foam for an insole shape and function that best fits your footwear line.
