Our history
Since its foundation in 1985,
Corin has grown from a small
UK orthopaedic business to a
global orthopaedic solutions
provider with operations in 40
countries worldwide. Throughout
this rapid growth phase Corin
has established a strong
presence across key orthopaedic
segments, providing innovative
and unique solutions to longstanding patient complications
and challenges.
In 2008, a new senior
management team instigated a
five year strategic plan initiating
major investment into new
product development. Since this
time Corin has seen approvals
for its new continuum of care
portfolio in most leading global
markets, including the US,
Europe, South America and
Australia, along with world
leading technology launches
such as ECiMa™ advanced

Our technology
Corin has developed a worldwide network of research associations
with leading universities, research institutes and industrial partners,
ensuring that we stay at the forefront of innovation.
State of the art test methodologies are used
to develop and verify new technologies to
demonstrate the safety and efficacy of all our
prostheses. Advanced computer simulation
technologies model and predict the lifecycle
of prostheses, whilst kinematic analysis and
mechanical simulations are used to replicate
patients’ behaviour, ensuring that product
performance is optimised over the life of the
implant.
Research into new materials allows us to offer
world first technologies for the next decade
through developing products based on the
very best in implant technology, designed to
enhance longevity and performance. The focus
of research concentrates on providing patient
benefits to improve quality of life in a society of
increasingly active arthritic patients – minimising
wear, addressing aseptic loosening and
reducing stress shielding that can cause bone
loss around implants and increased revision
rates.
Corin has a first class track record of gaining
access to external grant funding (Technology
Strategy Board, NIHR i4i and EU funding) and
14 |
running multidisciplinary research projects with
a clear end goal – to develop products for
improved patient function and benefit.
Research outputs are disseminated at
international conferences and via publications
in peer-reviewed journals in collaboration with
our global research partners and key opinion
leaders.
ECiMa™
In a unique collaboration, Corin has worked with a leading
research institute on the development and commercialisation
of a next generation vitamin E polyethylene. The result,
ECiMa™, is a cold-irradiated, mechanically-annealed,
vitamin E-blended ultra high molecular weight polyethylene
(UHMWPE).
The most advanced polyethylene of its kind, ECiMa™
has been developed to minimise wear, improve oxidation
resistance in today’s
increasingly younger and
more active patients,
and to offer mechanical
properties superior
to other conventional
highly cross-linked
polyethylenes due to its
unique process.
Global collaboration
Corin is engaged in world class collaborations with global
innovation leaders in the pursuit of the ‘forgotten implant’ – an
implant offering such performance that the patient forgets its
presence. Next generation porous implants with enhanced
fixation and bone adaptive structures that minimise stress
shielding are being specifically developed for the increasingly
younger and more active demographic. Such implants have
optimised micro-textured surfaces to improve initial stability
and secure rapid osseointegration. The ‘forgotten implant’ will
offer increased functionality and longevity, and as research
continues will represent the next major advancement in
implant technology.

Our operation
An example of British manufacturing success, all production takes place on-site at our UK
headquarters. Our facilities have consistently been updated over the years to encompass the very
latest manufacturing technologies and modern production principles, ensuring all Corin products meet
the very highest standards in quality engineering.
The combination of modern manufacturing
methodologies alongside continued investment
in high tech computer-controlled machinery
ensures the highest level of operational
efficiency. This enables us to produce quality
products, ensuring the best patient outcomes
for our global operating partners.
Corin operates in a highly regulated environment
with frequent and thorough external quality
audits to ensure our continuing compliance with
relevant statutory and industry standards. All
products are designed to be safe and reliable
and comply with, or exceed, all legal and
regulatory requirements.
Coupled with this quality and technology is
a highly skilled and motivated workforce.
Our teams combine experienced individuals
who have been in medical manufacturing for
many years, with the ongoing development of
the best local talent through an effective and
well-established apprenticeship programme,
developed in conjunction with a local university.
We have a strong environmental, health and
safety awareness across all areas of our
business, anticipating future requirements so that
the health and safety of customers and patients
is continually enhanced. In an ever-competitive
market, the culture within Corin encourages
people at all levels to engage in an environment
of continuous improvement, positively impacting
on the growth and development of Corin.
Quality is a core value deeply embedded
within Corin’s culture across all aspects of the
organisation and every product is subject to
the highest level of quality assurance. Today,
computer aided technology is central to all
aspects of our business, from the creation of the
initial concept ideas through to the manufacture
and measurement of all components using
computer-controlled coordinate measuring
machines (CMMs) and high-end vision systems.

Our support
Corin Academy was established to provide a wide range of
surgeon training initiatives to meet the needs of the changing global
orthopaedic community.
Through a range of meeting and education
formats, our vision is to provide a forum to debate
and discuss current concepts and best practice in
orthopaedic surgery, and to help build long-term
clinical success for today’s patient population.
We deliver this through the following initiatives:
The eExpert
Surgeon eLearning
The Visit
Centres of Excellence
The Experience
Live surgery
The Masterclass
Expert guidance
The Science
Surgeon-led congress
The Lab
Cadaveric workshops
The Forum

Surgeon to surgeon visits
The ‘Experience’ meeting
Utilising the most highly-skilled practitioners to
train surgeons on each procedure ensures that
best practice is passed on, enabling excellent
clinical performance and promoting long-term
patient wellbeing as well as outstanding clinical
results for Corin manufactured products.
Surgeon to surgeon hospital visits offer highly
effective one-on-one training opportunities
allowing experts to discuss products which
are at the foreground of modern orthopaedic
practice. These exchanges facilitate
opportunities for knowledge transfer in a live
theatre environment.
Scientific congresses
Modern orthopaedic medicine depends on
a lively interaction between experts in this
ever-changing field. In order to promote such
discussion, Corin works diligently with a wide
faculty of experts who are able to work with
us to put together the most interesting and
topical agendas and debates, whilst seeking to
drive understanding and illuminate those areas
requiring clarity.
Through this close interaction with experts,
Corin has been able to stay at the cutting edge
of orthopaedic practice, to better understand
the needs of surgeons and their patients.
Each year, the Corin Academy
meeting calendar includes the
successful ‘Experience’ series.
Through recognising the importance
of a wide range of inputs and
utilising these, we are able to make
rapid progress with delegates and
help them to greatly improve their
understanding of products and
procedures in a well-controlled
environment.
By using an innovative mixture of live
video-link surgery, didactic sessions
and dry-bone workshops, as well as
interactive sessions such as ‘difficult
cases’ and ‘what would you do?’,
delegates feel that they are able to
get the best out of meetings and
the valuable time away from their
practices.

Our clinical responsibility
As an organisation, Corin places a great deal of importance on
collaboration with key clinical institutions to deliver strong medical
research programmes that support the safe and effective use of
Corin implants.
Being at the cutting edge of new product
development and also with well-established
products in our portfolio, Corin has the dual
responsibility of dealing with new product
introductions as well as the changing face of the
global regulatory systems relating to in-market
devices.
Taking our responsibility for patient wellbeing
seriously means investing significantly in short,
medium and long-term studies of up to 15
years’ duration. As a company we support
registries both locally and globally as well as
single and multi-centre, international data
collections, in order to monitor the safe and
effective use of our devices worldwide.
Over recent years we have implemented a
dramatic increase in the level of clinical research
activity carried out in relation to Corin’s devices.
This has been driven by regulatory imperatives
and the requirement to support the launch of
a series of new hip products through global
multi-centre initiatives. As we drive forward, we
will continue to develop innovative products in a
responsible manner.
22 |
Our dedication to clinical data collection is
strongly aligned to our enthusiasm for surgeon
training, for it can only be by the combination of
these two key elements that we will be able to
produce long-term clinical efficacy and patient
satisfaction.
We will continue to invest significantly in robust
clinical research in partnership with leading
global clinical centres to document the safe
and effective use of Corin’s implants – both for
surgeons and their patients.
