ENDOSMART® – Your partner for NITINOL SOLUTIONS and SERVICES Nitinol is our multitalent! For decades, this smart material has been used in a wide variety of medical technology applications. The reason for this is the unique property of the material to return to its original shape under the right conditions. Our vision is to develop and manufacture innovative instruments and implants that reduce the burden on patients to a minimum. This is made possible by our extensive knowledge about the material Nitinol and its processing possibilities. For 20 years, we have been living up to this claim and manufacturing high-quality medical products on behalf of our partners.
