WE PRINT BONE™
The bone substitutes are not cleared by the regulatory authorities and therefore not approved for sale.
Bio-integrative and structural orthopedic bone substitutes
Ossiform® develops bioactive bone substitutes that provide structure while facilitating the natural forming of new bone.
The bone substitutes are made from 3D printed ß-tricalcium phosphate – a fully resorbable material with tailored properties, optimized for bone regeneration and indication-specific biomechanical thresholds.
In short: We Print Bone™.
Our aim is to allow surgeons to reconstruct bone without the complications of foreign body implantation – or the variable quality of allografts.
The Ossiform Bone illustrations shown on this site are intended to demonstrate potential use cases, they are not cleared by the regulatory authorities and are therefore not approved for sale.
The technology has been tested in preclinical studies only. Results from in vitro and in vivo tests may not be predictive of clinical performance.
About Ossiform®
We are continuously working to redefine bone replacements through progressive research and close collaboration with physicians and industry partners. Our patient-centric approach and commitment to innovation, quality, and progress steer our efforts to provide best-in-class implant solutions that facilitate the natural forming of new bone.
That's why, We Print Bone™

Technology explained
The problem
Bone reconstructions are performed more than 5 million times each year, from congenital bone defects to victims of accidents, and sufferers of diseases. Today, implant solutions are either made of materials that are foreign to the human body or tend to lack structure and reliability.
The solution
Ossiform® developed a 3D printing technique to give shape and structure to the well-recognized ceramic material, β-TCP which resorbs over time and remodels into native bone. A balanced remodeling process that matches the specific demands of diversified applications is facilitated through tailored design.
The future
The bone printing solution enables bone repair in virtually all areas of the body, has the potential to reduce the need for permanent implant solutions, and is scalable for hospitals worldwide. Leveraging the novel technology, Ossiform® aims to make high-quality bone replacements accessible and cost-effective.
For researchers
Bone tissue engineering in preclinical research
Ossiform’s expertise in medical 3D printing is further used to provide a research product line of natural bone-like environments wherein disease mechanisms can be studied and new treatments can be tested.
