Ionbond Switzerland has coated for many years the 7 layer coating for Aesculap. Recently Medthin™ 42 and Medthin™ 01 were approved by FDA through PMA and 510(k), respectively.

Medthin™ 42 DLC and Medthin™ 43 ADLC are applied on award winning spine devices. Medthin™ 42 coated devices were evaluated by FDA to demonstrate the safety and probable clinical benefits of the less invasive, non-fusion deformity spine correction system.

“In recent years we have collected results from clinical trials and many simulator tests from coated devices - such data allows us to design adequate coatings to reduce wear and ion release, and thus substantially increase the probability for patients to avoid inflammatory processes over the short, medium and long term”, said Dr. Susann Schmidt, Segment Engineer for Medical applications.
