From C3 Ortho´s perspective

• Surgeons are looking for lower priced ceramic ball-heads to offer this superior-to-metallic product solution to all patients regardless of age or insurance reimbursement policies and to increase the profitability of their orthopedic departments; 
• Orthopedic manufacturers want to reduce their extreme dependency on the current single source supplier of ceramic ball-heads to achieve significantly better supply terms and product innovation. This would allow them to phase out their inhouse low-margin production of metallic ball-heads which is currently kept in operation to offer hip replacements to the market segments that can´t afford the higher priced ceramic ball-heads, and to address the needs of the public health care systems in emerging markets with affordable ceramic ball-heads.  

C3 Ortho believes that the arrival of a second source supplier in the market is overdue offering top-quality ceramic ball–heads  at a lower price level.

C3 Ortho is uniquely equipped with comprehensive knowledge and experience to make this arrival happen and successful.
