Episurf Medical has received four additional patent approval notifications. The Indian patent office Intellectual Property India reported that Episurf received two newly granted patents in the region. One is related to implant materials and coatings, while the other relates to Episurf’s damage visualization process for surgical pre-planning and individualized medical device design.
Further, the Australian patent office IP Australia has issued a notice of acceptance for a patent related to the implant-specific drill used for Episurf’s implant technology.
Lastly, the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission of South Africa has granted Episurf its first-ever patent in South Africa. That patent covers a system for customizing an implant for treatment of damage in an anatomical joint.
“As we take new steps towards new global markets, we also take care to protect our technology. While we are at an early stage in Australia and South Africa, India is currently a highly prioritised country for Episurf. A number of surgeries with Episurf’s Episealer implants have taken place there during this year, and the increased patent protection there is appreciated to strengthen our position in this highly interesting market,” comments Katarina Flodström, COO, Episurf Medical.
