Biofuse™ is a 3D-printed porous ingrowth technology for orthopedic implants.
Produced with advanced L-PBF additive manufacturing, Biofuse™ enables OEMs to create custom lattice structures compliant with ASTM F1854, that integrate seamlessly into their implant geometries.
Leveraging Croom Medical’s proven expertise in lattice engineering, Biofuse™ allows fine-tuning of key parameters such as pore size, porosity, and coefficient friction to create optimal conditions for bone ingrowth and long-term fixation. By combining dense and targeted porous regions in a single manufacturing process, Biofuse™ supports implants that achieve both strong mechanical performance and reliable biological integration.
Fine tune the volume of open space to balance implant stiffness with fluid permeability. Promoting vascularisation and bone in-growth.
Configure pore sizes within the optimal window shown in preclinical studies for tissue in‑growth and nutrient transport, without sacrificing mechanical support.
Printing solid and lattice regions in one continuous run, Biofuse™ aims to produce implants with optimised structural performance. Simplifying your supply chain.
Apply porous lattice structures exactly where you need them. Even in tight or complex regions that other methods, such as laser texturing or spray coating, can’t reach.
This might include replicating a porous structure previously produced through coating methods, or proposing lattice characteristics that improve fixation and manufacturability. The flexibility of the platform gives the OEMs confidence that their design intent can be realised consistently and in line with regulatory expectations.
Traditional treatments only scratch the surface. Biofuse™ delivers a continuous 3D porous network on your implant, delivering depth-to-edge integration and performance.
