Implex Corp.

Allendale, New Jersey
United States,

Implex Corp. is a privately held company founded in 1991 with a focus on bringing a new technology, Hedrocel biomaterial, to address clinical issues. Hedrocel biomaterial is an open cell, tantalum metal structure that approximates the appearance of human cancellous bone. The ability of the biomaterial to be readily formed or machined allows it to be incorporated in a wide variety of implant designs. Because of its highly porous structure and material properties, bone can grow into Hedrocel biomaterial, forming a strong bond and potentially eliminating one of the pathways for particulate wear debris in the joint. Because Hedrocel biomaterial also can be manufactured to closely mimic the flexibility of natural bone, the risk of bone loss that can occur with stiffer implants through a process known as "stress shielding" may be minimized. Implex designs and manufactures reconstructive, spine and sports medicine orthopaedic implants.
