Proteor artificial leg parts in Pakistan
Families sometimes arrive asking for a Freedom foot or a RUSH foot they have read about, and are puzzled to find neither company trading. Both product lines now belong to Proteor, a French maker more than a century old. This guide covers all three names.
Is Proteor available in Pakistan?
Yes. Proteor components are imported to order and fitted in Karachi. Proteor is a French company. In 2020 it acquired most of the lower limb range of the American maker Freedom Innovations, including the Plie microprocessor knee and the Kinterra ankle, having earlier acquired the RUSH Foot range. It also supplies the Allux microprocessor knee.

Strengths, and what to watch
Where Proteor is strong
- RUSH composite feet are very hard to break, which suits rough ground and heavy use
- A strong choice of hydraulic and electronic ankles
- A four bar microprocessor knee is unusual, and useful where thigh length matters
- Often good value against the two largest makers
What to weigh up
- The names are confusing. Make sure the quotation states the exact current model.
- Older Freedom branded stock may still circulate. Ask about its age and warranty.
- Fewer prosthetists here have hands on experience with the electronic parts
- Lead times can be longer than for the most common brands
Using Proteor in Pakistani conditions
The glass composite foot deserves attention in Pakistan. Carbon feet are light and lively, and they can crack under an overload or a sharp knock. A composite foot bends further without failing, shrugs off water and dust, and suits the man who loads a van, works a field or walks a construction site.
It gives a softer, more flexible feel than carbon, which some users love and others find too springy. It is worth trying before deciding.
If a relative abroad offers to bring a Freedom or RUSH foot, check the model, side, size and weight category with us first. Stock bought online may be old.

Artificial Leg Karachi imports and fits Proteor components to order. We are independent of every manufacturer, recommend by need and budget, and earn nothing from steering you to one name over another. Product ranges change, so we confirm the current model, its weight rating and its water rating with the maker before anything is ordered. Proteor and its product names are trade marks of their owner and are used here only to describe the products.
Is Freedom Innovations still in business?
Not as a separate company. Most of its lower limb products, including the Plie knee and Kinterra ankle, were acquired by Proteor under an agreement made in 2020, and continue under Proteor.
What makes a RUSH foot different from a carbon foot?
It is made from a flexible glass composite instead of carbon fibre. It bends further, is very difficult to break, and copes well with water and rough use.
Can you still get spare parts for an older Freedom Innovations foot?
For models that continued under Proteor, generally yes. For discontinued models, a replacement foot is usually the practical answer. Bring the foot and we will identify it.
Who makes the Allux knee?
It was developed in Japan and is supplied internationally through Proteor. We confirm the current supply route and warranty terms at the time of ordering.
