Products
Creed Cannulated Compression Screws
Portfolio of cannulated headed and headless compression screws in multiple diameters and lengths, featuring radiolucent hybrid material construction and widened cannulation.
Apollo Ankle Fracture Plating System
Hybrid plating platform using an additively manufactured titanium shell injection-molded with PEEK to produce radiolucent, anatomically contoured fracture plates with variable-angle locking.
Artemis Proximal Femoral Nailing System
Intramedullary nailing platform for intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures featuring a titanium structural core integrated with radiolucent polymer encasement to provide structural strength with controlled flexibility.
FusionFrame Ring Lock Circular Fixator
Modular circular external fixation system based on ring-lock principles for multi-level constructs, enabling treatment of complex foot and ankle deformities.
HammerThread Digital Fusion Implant system
Digital fusion implant system composed of small-diameter cannulated implants and matching single-use disposable instruments for correction of small bone deformities.
