Pioneers in elastic Titanium
Traditionally, titanium was limited to solid structures, restricting its adaptability in dynamic applications. Our revolutionary technology has transformed titanium into highly flexible fabric structures, enabling unparalleled functional and medical advancements. This breakthrough opens the door to a wide spectrum of applications, particularly in medicine, biomedical engineering – combining the strength of titanium with the flexibility of advanced textiles.
Our Platform Technology
Based on our platform technology, we transform titanium and other metals into ultra-fine filaments, which are further processed into flexible textiles in two- or three-dimensional shapes. Adaptable surface modifications enhance material properties to meet the highest standards of structure, functionality and design.
Choice of Material
We specialize in the selection and processing of metallic materials for use in advanced textile applications.
Titanium – especially Grade 1 – is at the core of our expertise. With in-depth metallurgical knowledge and precise process control, we ensure that every step from sourcing to final processing meets the highest quality standards. This allows us to deliver materials perfectly suited for use in high performance applications.
Next to titanium, we work with other metals including both bioresorbable metals such as molybdenum, magnesium and iron, and non resorbable metals like tungsten and platinum.
Titanium Microwire
We specialize in the development of ultra-fine titanium wire with diameters as small as 50 µm, delivering exceptional precision and consistent quality. Utilizing continuous cold-drawing processes, we achieve tight manufacturing tolerances tailored to exacting industry standards.
Key mechanical properties – including tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and plasticity – are finely tuned through carefully controlled processing steps. Thermal treatments, such as targeted annealing, are applied as needed to achieve specific performance profiles.
Thanks to advanced technologies, we offer both monofilament and multifilament wire structures, engineered to meet a wide range of application requirements.
Optimized for downstream integration, our microwire are ready for seamless incorporation into textile-based systems and other specialized manufacturing processes.
Textile Manufacturing
Using various textile manufacturing techniques, we process ultra-fine metal wires into flexible textile structures for high performance applications.
Proprietary metal-based textile processing allows us to realize a wide range of designs – including elastic meshes, tubes and sleeves.
Our core expertise lies in warp knitting, complemented by advanced braiding textile manufacture, enabling the development of metallic fabrics with precise and consistent properties.
Customized warp-knitted fabrics and scaffolds are developed in both 2D and 3D forms to meet specific functional requirements.
We combine deep understanding of textile processes with in-depth knowledge of metal wire behavior. By adjusting wire specifications, process parameters, fineness, and knit patterns, we develop textile structures with defined mechanical properties.
Surface Treatment and Post-Processing
Advanced post-processing methods allow precise adjustment of surface and mechanical properties – supporting specific biological responses such as enhanced or reduced cell adhesion. Treatments can be applied at both wire and textile level using mechanical, chemical and coating-based techniques. Anodization also offers customized coloration across a broad range of tones.
Thermal processes under controlled atmospheres support the fine-tuning of material behavior – such as elasticity, tensile characteristics and structural stability.
The Beauty of Elastic Titanium
Biocompatible. Built to Last. Trusted for Life.
Our technology combines the exceptional material properties of titanium with innovative approaches to creating flexible structures. The result is more than just a material – it is a symbiosis of technical precision and functional intelligence.
This fusion sets new benchmarks in textile manufacturing and expands the possibilities for high-performance applications.
