Partnering for Innovation in Joint Arthroplasty

MOTIS® polymer combines versatility, strength, biocompatibility and superior material properties specifically tailored for bearing applications against hard counterfaces, such as metal and ceramic. It is a tool for innovation that drives arthroplasty device performance to the next level.

MOTIS® polymer provides orthopaedic joint arthroplasty device designers with an innovative biomaterial to develop novel medical device designs and surgery techniques which are not possible with other biomaterials.

In addition to exceptional wear performance and biocompatibility, benefits include:

• Exceptional wear performance supported by research and published data
• Conservation of bone, thin components, and part consolidation
• Reduced stress shielding and improved stress distribution
• Radiolucent devices for improved healing site visualization
• An alternative to metal-on-metal combinations, which eliminates metal ion concerns
• More efficient processing and component manufacturing
• Ability to be coated with titanium or hydroxyapatite for fixation

MOTIS® polymer offers enhanced medical design and manufacturing flexibility across highly diverse applications requiring implantation or blood, bone and tissue contact greater than 30 days.
