Corentec's Central Technology Institute was established in order for the patients to have an improved quality of life through the development of advanced medical devices and surgical techniques.
In 2006, we successfully developed the first artificial hip joint in Korea after five years' worth of research since the establishment of the company in 2000. We applied the MAO surface treatment technique for the porous oxide film formation to the artificial joint.
In 2010, we successfully developed the first artificial knee joint in Korea, thereby standing at the top of domestic artificial joint research. However, we were not satisfied with this success, so we later developed an innovative laser bio-material coating technique via 3D printing technology in 2013.
We are currently being recognized as the global technological leader. We, at Corentec's Central Technology Institute, are striving for success beyond our position as the leader of artificial joints in Korea.
Furthermore, we will continuously expand our areas of expertise through active R&D in order to become established as a global medical device leader.
