Cerapedics’ i-FACTOR portfolio is distinguished by its P-15 osteogenic cell-binding peptide, a unique feature that accelerates new bone formation by attaching and activating osteogenic cells.

This mechanism of action is exclusive to Cerapedics’ products and has been clinically validated.

The i-FACTOR Bone Graft, leveraging the P-15 peptide, is the only biologic bone graft composed of a small peptide bound to an anorganic bone mineral. This combination facilitates a surface-bound mechanism that promotes natural bone healing while preventing ectopic bone growth.

Unlike engineered growth factors, i-FACTOR Bone Graft’s P-15 peptide specifically activates cells predestined to become osteoblasts.

Effective as of 1 December, the agreement aims to significantly boost sales and revenue while driving the growth of both companies. It also combines Cerapedics’ product design with Osteotec’s market expertise to foster the adoption of i-FACTOR products in the region.

Cerapedics International general manager Stewart Jefferson said: “This partnership is an important step in our global growth strategy.

“Osteotec’s established market presence and commitment to service excellence make them an ideal partner. Together, we are confident we can deliver effective solutions to surgeons while improving patient outcomes throughout the UK and Ireland.”

“Our partnership with Cerapedics enhances our ability to meet the evolving needs of our customers by providing access to advanced biologics.”
