Startup Mantra: Bioabsorbable implants to boost recovery

Surgeries often involve the insertion of various types of metal screws and plates in the body. A decade later, the relentless pursuit of their dream gave results, and they succeeded in creating bio-absorbable implants using in-house synthesised medical-grade materials. Ours adhere to their standards that has been ratified by the Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences & Technology, Kerala.” Initial steps The problem was not just having the ability to make bio-absorbable implants. Says Piyush, “The biomedical grade bio-absorbable materials required to make such implants are not manufactured in India and right grade materials are proprietary to the MNCs. “Our packaging involves the use of medical grade barrier films involving aluminium foil to ensure that implants are not exposed to direct sunlight and moisture,” he said.
