The GTO Orthopédie Workshop
Over 20 years of dedication, technological innovation and human care for restored mobility.
Since 2003
A story born in Charleroi
Founded in 2003 by Michaël Godfroid, a trained orthotist and prosthetist, GTO Orthopédie grew from a simple goal: putting technical know-how at the service of patients' well-being.
First built around field work, the company opened its first shop in Charleroi in 2006, along with its first manufacturing workshop. This key step allowed GTO to design its own devices and steadily build its expertise.
Over the years, the team grew, activities diversified and new centres strengthened GTO's presence. Through all these changes, one ambition remains: offering personalised support and solutions suited to every situation.
