DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc.

As the largest business within the DePuy Franchise, DePuy Orthopaedics is advancing the standard of orthopaedic patient care, with a focused commitment to help surgeons achieve excellence in surgical practice.

As a global leader in joint replacement products, DePuy Orthopaedics is committed to Restoring the Joy of Motion™ for patients whose mobility is restricted by severe osteoarthritis or other debilitating injury.  The company’s product portfolio reflects a global leadership position in orthopaedic devices and supplies including hip, knee, extremity, trauma, cement, and operating room products.

DePuy Orthopaedics is committed to bringing clinically superior and competitively differentiated products to market and to developing technology-driven products coupled with education to improve outcomes and speed recovery for patients around the world.

The Trauma & Extremities unit of DePuy Orthopaedics is committed to providing surgeons with extremity reconstructive products for the foot and ankle, hip, long bones, and upper extremity areas.

Hip fractures and plating technologies within the trauma and extremities market represent an area of strong focus for the Trauma and Extremities Group. A focus on plating technologies led to the 2006 acquisition of Hand Innovations LLC, a privately held manufacturer of widely used fracture fixation products for the upper extremities.  The acquisition provides the Trauma and Extremities Group with leading technology in the plating business. The group also markets leading technologies for fracture repairs and has historically led innovation in the shoulder repair market. Today, the Trauma and Extremities Group is poised to fuel future growth for the DePuy franchise with one of the most comprehensive trauma and small-joint reconstructive product portfolios in the marketplace.

The company is headquartered in Warsaw, Indiana and Leeds,U.K.
