About MatOrtho®

Information for Healthcare Professionals

Changing the lives of patients

Welcome to MatOrtho®, a company established by Mike Tuke in 2010 to continue the pioneering work of almost four decades conducted by his previous company, Finsbury Orthopaedics Limited, one of the most innovative British medical device manufacturers to date.

Mike’s vision for MatOrtho® is to grow the business based on the design principles established by Finsbury and to be acknowledged as a pioneering trendsetter in the field of orthopaedic implant devices.

MatOrtho® is focused on improving the quality of life of all patients who receive one of its devices. The passion, knowledge and innovation which drove Finsbury lives on and is applied in a dynamic and ethical way.

Based in Leatherhead, MatOrtho® continues to employ many original Finsbury staff, who continue to manufacture and provide the supply of internationally-recognised orthopaedic implant devices such as the SAIPH® Knee System and the ADEPT® Hip Resurfacing System.

Our heritage is a true reflection of our commitment and responsibility as suppliers to medical professionals and, through continued investment in new technologies and product development, we aim to further demonstrate that commitment.

MatOrtho® today

Now firmly established as pioneers of orthopaedic implant devices, MatOrtho® today is committed to building sustainable value in the future. We are incredibly proud of our status as the 'Originators' of the medially stabilised knee and as the 'Home of Hip Resurfacing'. We continue, and will always strive for next generation innovation.

Although Covid-19 has presented the most testing time for our manufacturing business we recognise our position as being at the heart of the UK economy and despite tough trading conditions we have remained both open for business and fully operational throughout the pandemic.

We believe that by being both versatile and innovative, we have provided the foundation of a successful company and our heritage clearly demonstrates this. Our research team continues to work on many studies to ensure the very best outcomes for all patients receiving a MatOrtho® device and the development team continues to deliver pioneering advances to our product portfolio.
