Quality assurance & regulatory affairs (QARA)

Bring peace of mind to your product development. Our extensive quality system ensures the biomaterials we produce are safe for use in the human body. Our regulatory team works with relevant regulatory bodies to ensure we're meeting stringent requirements and compliance worldwide.

  • FDA Master Files on biomaterial technologies can be used as part of your own regulatory submissions. It also includes our first Master File in China for the use of polyethylenes.
  • Our ISO 1345 certification can help with the design, development, and manufacturing of biomedical polymers, specialty chemicals, bioresorbable implants fabricated alone or from combinations of synthetic resorbable polymers, bioceramics, and collagen.
  • A commitment to best practices. We are regularly audited, and use these findings to further strengthen our quality systems.
