INNOVATIVE MEDICAL PRODUCTS

Next Generation
Surgical Implants

Titanium Textiles develops, manufactures and distributes innovative products based on a unique microwire technology. As a result, ultra-thin, flexible and structurally complex titanium structures can be produced for the first time. This opens up completely new areas of applications for products made of titanium with unmatched biocompatibility.

OUR PORTFOLIO

Product Highlights

  • TiSilk® Mesh

    Implants made of elastic titanium microthreads.

    They are designed to as a substitute for meshes made of polypropylene, for example, in pelvic floor, hernia or soft tissue surgery. We manufacture products with different pore sizes, weights and elasticity classes.

  • TiSilk® - Sleeve

    Sleeves, tubes and tapes made of elastic titanium microthreads. Current fields of application include pelvic floor and reconstructive surgery.

  • Titanell® - Suture Material

    Non-absorbable surgical sutures made of titanium microthread variants and needle-thread combinations.

    They complement the market for monofilament and polyfilament sutures. This results in a wide range of applications wherever non-degradable, highly biocompatible suture material is required.

A STEP AHEAD

The superiority of elastic titanium

In modern surgery, titanium is known to be the most suitable material for patients, as it produces minimal immune response. Traditionally, titanium could only be used as a rigid material, for example in hip joints or dental implants. In contrast, the availability of titanium for flexible applications such as surgical mesh implants has been very limited. As a consequence, synthetic polymers like polypropylene are used in these applications that unfortunately elicit a huge foreign body response. Our innovative technology makes it possible for the first time to bring titanium into an elastic structure suitable for surgical mesh implants.

High Biocompatibility

Pure titanium is light, strong and non-toxic. Its bioinertness does not cause any adverse reaction in the bodily tissues.

Exceptional Formability

High stretchability and drapability to mold its shape according to the complex anatomical requirements.

No Material Degradation

Unlike synthetic material, titanium does not degrade in the body. Our mesh implants do not change their size or disintegrate over time. Their strength is retained permanently.

Visualization

Titanium provides contrast in imaging procedures (e.g. MRI). This facilitates correct positioning and decisions on revisions.
