College Park Industries, Warren, Michigan, is celebrating its 25th anniversary as a lower-limb prosthetic manufacturing company.
College Park was founded in Michigan in the late 1980s-a collaboration between a machinist, his son, and a local podiatrist who shared a goal of developing the world’s most anatomically correct prosthetic foot. Their work, and developments in composite technology, allowed them to develop the Trustep® foot, which became commercially available in 1991.
