Company at a Glance
C-Boot develops and manufactures advanced compression products for preventing and treating venous
and lymphatic diseases and other conditions that require compression therapy, including DVT prevention.
C-Boot offers the first intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) line of products powered automatically by
energy generated from the patient’s body.
The company holds proprietary technological knowledge, patents covering the technological concept, and
aspects in the field of low pressure compression.
The first line of product is already generating revenues through sales to distributors. The company is now
focused on expanding its worldwide presence.

Technology & Product(s)
C-Boot’s patented system is a wearable sleeve comprising a unique pneumatic brain and several inflatable
chambers that wrap the leg. Using the body’s own kinetic energy while an individual is walking, the system
inflates the chambers in a gradient and sequential cycle which leads to blood release from both the
superficial and deep veins. This strengthens the body's natural tendency to enhance lymphatic and venous
return, and enables the blood to re-circulate toward the heart.
C-Boot concept allows patients to maintain complete mobility without the need for cumbersome external
pumps. The technology is protected by number of patents surrounding the use of kinetic energy to drive the
pneumatic action, as well as the sophisticated internal mechanisms that allow for the pneumatic action to
also be driven by a very small and portable compressor.
