Tecvac Ltd, part of the Wallwork Heat Treatment Group, based at Swavesey, Cambridge, UK specialises in Nitron coatings using 'biologically inert’ ultra hard materials such as titanium nitride, and bio-compatibles such as pure gold and silver, to coat implants, medical instruments, probes and accessories.
Tecvac has also recently developed a set of new, low temperature plasma processing technologies that allow plastic surfaces to be sterilised, coated or modified to the highest clinical standards, to ensure biocompatible solutions. Tecvac offers a full range of metallurgical and analytical services supported by the latest heat treatment techniques with controlled environments and advanced cleaning systems to ensure that any implants, probes or core materials used for components or instruments can be coated to the best performance standards. Tecvac's flexible, low friction coatings replicate the smoothest mirror finish and have been specified in knee and hip applications for very long periods, with complete clinical histories.
