An innovation engine in sports medicine

What we focus on

Surgical-Fiberlock™ Technology

Revolutionizing surgical suturing
Our novel approach for soft tissue repair will allow the surgeon to attach patches and sutures in an easier and more reliable way. This technology has the potential to prevent suture cut throughs and easily augment weak tissue (e.g. torn rotator cuff tendons).

Broad range of indications
The Surgical-Fiberlock™ Technology can not only be applied in orthopedics but also shows huge potential for other indications such as minimal invasive or catheter based cardiovascular surgery.

BTB-Conversion Technology

The BTB-Conversion approach
Eight years of advanced biomaterial research and translational development at the University and ETH Zurich, in collaboration with leading Swiss surgeons, has led to ZuriMED’s Bone-Tendon-Bone(BTB)-Conversion Technology for knee ligament reconstruction.

Extracortical Fixation Technology

The single strand VariLoop™ for superior ligament fixation
Simple, easy to use, self flipping – truly knotless. Highly reliable and strong in all testing conditions. This implant can be used in different configurations in many indications where tension or compression is key for healing.

MagicBox for rapid button assembly onto open sutures
The first knotless button that can be intraoperatively mounted with ease. This technology opens the door to many new approaches where stitching a cortical fixation device to a tendon end was previously not possible.
