Agreement between VySpine and Oxford Performance Materials

VySpine, a spine innovation leader using differentiated materials and designs, has entered into a partnership agreement with Oxford Performance Materials (OPM), an industry leader in advanced polymer science and 3D printed orthopedic devices. The agreement enables VySpine and OPM to collaboratively develop differentiated spine fusion products using OPM’s patented OsteoFab PEKK technology. VySpine is the designer of the OsteoVy PEKK lattice, which will be manufactured exclusively by OPM for VySpine. “OPM is the ideal partner given its long history with the high performing thermoplastic PEKK and its experience with 3D printing of these materials,” said Tom McLeer, CEO of VySpine. “The OsteoVy PEKK polymer lattice structure is uniquely designed to promote bone integration. PEKK, unlike other orthopedic polymers, has demonstrated bony apposition performance, allowing for bone growth onto, and throughout, the OsteoVy PEKK lattice. OPM will be producing the OsteoVy PEKK lattice exclusively for VySpine.” For identifying growth opportunities in technology landscape, trends and opportunities in the global orthopedic device market, please visit https://www.lucintel.com/technology-orthopedic-device-market.aspx
