RemeOs™ Technology - Bringing Metallic Properties to the Bioimplant World
The company’s next-generation patented bioresorbable metal, RemeOs, is based on naturally occurring essential metals in the human body: magnesium, zinc, and calcium. The material contains no rare-earth elements (REE) foreign to the human body like Yttrium, Gadolinium, Neodymium, or any other REE.
Versatile and effective for both pediatric and adult patients, RemeOs adapts to a wide range of bone-healing needs.
Absorbable Osteopromotive Magnesium-based Metal Alloy
RemeOs is a biocompatible, osteopromotive metal alloy implant designed to integrate naturally into bone during the healing process. Specifically engineered for orthopedic applications, RemeOs provides strong, temporary support that aligns seamlessly with the body’s natural recovery. With its REE-free composition, RemeOs ensures exceptional biocompatibility for safe and effective healing. Absorbing naturally over approximately two to three years, it eliminates the need for removal surgeries, reducing complications and supporting a smoother recovery.
This innovative technology not only promotes bone healing but also supports long-term sustainability by lowering healthcare costs. RemeOs delivers a patient-centered solution for orthopedic care, enhancing outcomes for individuals of all ages.
Osteopromotive Properties: Ossification in 6 Weeks
Osteopromotive and Strong Performance: RemeOs implants demonstrate osteopromotive properties, with 90% of patients achieving full ossification within 6 weeks and complete fracture consolidation by 12 weeks. Calcium phosphates, such as hydroxyapatite (HA), form on the implant surface, triggering a beneficial bioactive response with bone tissue. The implants absorb through oxidation, forming magnesium, calcium, and zinc minerals that promote rapid bone in-growth, regeneration, and replacement, aligning with the natural healing process. Additionally, RemeOs implants offer compression performance and fixation strength comparable to conventional metal implants, with mechanical strength tailored to the phases of bone healing.
Absorbable: Dissolves naturally over 2 to 3 years, aligning with the bone’s natural healing process and eliminating the need for removal surgery. Promotes rapid bone in-growth, regeneration, and replacement for faster, more effective healing.
Imaging Compatibility
Supports clear imaging with X-rays, CT scans, and MRI (MRI conditional), enabling precise intra- and postoperative assessments. RemeOs implants have the same radio-opacity as cortical bone and are MR-conditional under certain conditions.
Surgical Technique
Features self-tapping capabilities for cancellous bone and surgical methods similar to conventional metal implants, ensuring ease of insertion and reliable performance.
Material Composition
Made from an absorbable magnesium-based metal alloy, RemeOs provides strong, temporary support while integrating naturally into bone.
Degradation Timeline
Dissolves naturally over 2–3 years, aligning with bone healing and eliminating the need for removal surgery.

How Does RemeOs Work
Traditional metallic orthopedic implants often require removal due to adverse effects, leading to patient discomfort and complications. RemeOs avoids these issues by integrating naturally with the bone, promoting healing while eliminating the need for removal surgery. This innovative approach reduces risks, enhances patient comfort, and ensures a safer, more efficient recovery.
Once implanted, RemeOs provides strong, temporary stabilization for fractures. Over time, the implant is gradually absorbed by the body, promoting natural bone regrowth and healing without the need for removal surgery.
RemeOs is an innovative absorbable metal alloy composed of magnesium, calcium, and zinc—essential elements that naturally occur in the human body and support bone health.
Indications
While the indications may vary depending on local regulatory approvals, RemeOs implants are designed for a variety of orthopedic indications, including fracture fixation, and correction of malalignments. RemeOs offers advantages for patients' bone repair while eliminating the need for removal surgery.
For professionals
RemeOs is an excellent choice for healthcare providers prioritizing advanced, patient-centered care and minimally invasive procedures, particularly for patients who would benefit from eliminating the need for implant removal surgery.
