Oxford Performance Materials (OPM) is establishing a focused entity for its 3D-printed orthopedic business areas following the company’s further expansion into personalized implants. The decision to create a separate orthopedic company will allow greater focus, investment and resources to this high-growth sector of OPM’s business.
OPM first began 3D printing cranial and facial implants in 2014, and has delivered patient-matched devices for over 4,500 craniomaxillofacial cases to date. The company has six FDA 510(k) clearances.
“Since our inception in 2000, OPM has been quietly building the most advanced materials and additive manufacturing technology in the orthopedic industry,” said Scott DeFelice, founder & CEO. “Our extension into personalized orthopedic implants began last year, providing devices pro-bono in response to an urgent need in Ukraine. Once specialized surgeons in the U.S. and Europe became aware of the comprehensive solution offered by 3DP PEKK, OPM’s extension from patient-matched CMF to an extended set of personalized devices was a natural step. We have a tiger by the tail here, and the broader decision to separate out our orthopedic offerings will allow greater focus and resources to better serve these customers.”
