Our Focus
We have a clear focus on the needs of foot and ankle specialty clinicians and the patients they serve.
For Clinicians and Patients Alike
We have aligned our organisation to ensure that we fully understand how we can best meet the specific needs of our lower extremity customers and the patients they treat.
Orthopaedics is a broad specialty that encompasses a diverse range of surgical and non-surgical interventions. It would be challenging, if not impossible, for any commercial organisation to fully understand the vast array of orthopaedic conditions, and the surgical solutions they necessitate, without focusing down to specific sub specialist areas, such as Foot and Ankle.
Design
We work in partnership with specialist foot and ankle surgeons to design innovative high quality surgical solutions.
Improving Solutions for Regaining Mobility
Our ultimate goal is to help patients suffering from painful and debilitating foot and ankle conditions, to regain their mobility. We believe that our focus helps ensure that we are better able to design improved surgical solutions in partnership with specialist surgeons, which help them get their patients get back on their feet.
We fully recognise that regaining mobility can mean very different things for different patients and can be dependent on multiple factors. Some patients would like to get back to demanding sporting activities whilst for others pain free walking will suffice. We also recognise that notwithstanding the goals of individual patients, fusion of bone, after the correction of a deformity, remains the primary goal of the surgeon for many surgical procedures for foot and ankle conditions.
Innovative Product Development
This is where we focus. Our development engineers collaborate with specialist surgeons to find ways that they can improve the design of devices to enhance these fusion rates and maximise the efficiency and effectiveness of the surgical procedure.
It is essential that the development process is fully inclusive and collaborative in nature and combines the expertise of clinicians with that of the design engineers. This partnership approach ensures that we are able to collate, assess and validate varied innovative surgical and engineering ideas and refine them down to meaningful product enhancements. The teams are looking at developing enhanced surgical solutions for clinical indications in the forefoot, midfoot, hindfoot and ankle.
All our new product developments are designed, tested and manufactured to meet all the requisite international quality and regulatory standards.
Quality
We strive for excellence in all that we do.
Striving for the highest of standards
We continually strive to meet all the standards expected of a responsible medical device supplier.
Our quality ethos is embedded throughout our organization and whether we are designing a new product, inspecting a newly manufactured component, or dispatching goods from our warehouse, we aim do so within the framework of our established quality system.
Design. Inspect. Deliver.
Our design teams work within a clearly defined quality and regulatory framework. We also ensure that our products are manufactured in controlled environments and adhere to the specifications required.
Whilst progressing through the manufacturing process our products are inspected at regular intervals and a series of final validations are carried out before products are packaged, sterilised and stored in our warehouse ready for shipment to our customers.
We ensure that we adhere to the regulatory requirements of all the countries in which our product are sold and must be ready to be audited by any of these regulatory authorities at any time.
