Who We Are

We are experts in Impossible Surfaces. Whether the project is for the medical industry or aerospace, we have been challenged to develop new solutions to a variety of difficult problems.

Over the last two decades, we have taken a multidisciplinary approach to developing and applying novel technology to address impossible surfaces. In the course of that research, we have discovered biological control mechanisms that can be influenced with nanotopology. In fact, while titanium is generally considered biologically compatible, we have discovered a deeper connection of deposition and topology to deliver an objective performance enhancement.

We Integrate Physics, Microbiology, Protein Chemistry and Immunochemistry to Determine How to Modify Implant and Surface Materials to Interact Successfully with the Human Body. Development applications include specific cell attachment directly to a device coating, suppression of fibroblasts, antimicrobial efficacy, Flex-Failure resistant surface post-treatments for 3D-printed parts, surfaces for 180° contact angle hydrophilic surfaces, surfaces for capture and delivery of eluting drugs, and even a transparent conductive coating for an ablation catheter. We even have a surface treatment under development that prevents any cell attachment for long-term implants.
