Kelyniam Global, Inc., Announces Strategic Licensing Agreement with Fin-ceramica faenza spa to Market Hydroxyapatite Cranial Implant in the U.S.
European market leading implant now available in the U.S.
COLLINSVILLE, Conn., Dec. 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Kelyniam Global, Inc. (OTC: KLYG), a leading manufacturer of custom cranial PEEK implants today announced that it has entered into a strategic licensing agreement with Fin-ceramica faenza spa to market the company's hydroxyapatite patient specific implant. This bio-mimetic ceramic biomaterial is based on macro and micro porous Hydroxyapatite (HA), a major (70%) component of human bone. The specific bio-mimetic chemical composition combined with an elevated interconnected porosity play a role in the perimetral osteointegration process.
The innovative CustomizedBone Service™ implant is indicated for use in adult and pediatric patients (for children 7 years of age and above). The highly bio-compatible material, shows a reduced post-op infection incidence compared to titanium-based implants.
"We are extremely excited to partner with a technology leading company like Fin-ceramica," said Ross Bjella, Kelyniam's CEO. "Our companies share a mutual passion of working closely with neurosurgeons to design and build complex implants for cranial and maxillo-facial applications. The CustomizedBoneä implant will give our customers another terrific option to fill a specific patient need."
Kelyniam will distribute the implant through its active salesforce of more than 50 representatives starting in January. Representatives will carry both PEEK (polyether ether ketone) and hydroxyapatite products. The CustomizedBoneä implant was previously marketed in the U.S. by Integra Lifesciences.
Laura Reed, Kelyniam's National Sales Director said, "Fin-ceramica's unique implant is a great fit for our company, specifically because of integrative properties of hydroxyapatite and the implant's commercial success in Europe. Our corporate cultures are very similar, both focusing on state of the art, patient focused technology that provides excellent aesthetic outcomes."
Gabriele Esposito, Finceramica's Global Marketing & Sales Director said "It is a really important agreement for Finceramica. We are very proud to collaborate with a specialized company in cranioplasty like Kelyniam."
"Based on the large experience and success we have in EMEA markets with Relevant Clinical Data to support Product safety and efficacy, we are confident that this partnership with Kelyniam will allow the development of the CustomizedBoneä in U.S.," said Giorgia Conti, Finceramica's International Product Manager.
