Founded in 2009, Orthobion is a privately funded start- up specialising spinal treatment options, especially spinal fusion devices.Today, Orthobion offers a complete line of interbody fusion devices featuring its unique FGOIC Ti surface technology, which are designed to promote bone growth, optimized intervertebral stability, while allowing for improved bone healing characteristics.
Among these solutions is the TSC Cage, which is designed with the Award Winning FGOIC Ti technology (Fine Grained Osseo Integrative Coating of Titanium). Based on research conducted by Orthobion, the Company has developed a composite implant with a biomimetic imprint; Titanium Fine Grained Osseo Integrative Coating (FGOIC Ti).
Ti is a non-porous metallic (Titanium) coating applied at room temperature. Orthobion has developed a product line of cervical and lumbar cages with its unique FGOIC Ti surface technology.
FGOIC Ti is a unique surface technology that forms the perfect blend of PEEK and Titanium.
To support its distributors and ensure that they are able to obtain and properly provide the solutions it offers, Orthobion has created a resource administration tool custom made for each distributor. This tailored approach to those who distribute its solutions has helped the firm to achieve its success in the market.
By tailoring the biomaterial’s surface with micro- and nano-
structures, Orthobion was able to engineer a biomimetic imprint, where the interaction between the biomaterial and the bio- environment were optimized, causing a desired behaviour from both cells and proteins, in bone formation needs while maintaining the mechanical properties of iPEEK – no stiffening effect – and maintaining radio lucency.
Ultimately, Orthobion is looking to become an innovative pioneer in the field of coated biomaterials and various surface treatment options for spinal fusion implants, working towards the most optimal biomimetic devices possible and resulting in Award Winning Technology. This will remain the company’s ongoing focus as it looks towards a bright and exciting future.
