History

Avalign was founded October 2005 through the purchase of Instrumed International, a German Instrument manufacturer, by RoundTable Healthcare Partners.  RoundTable co-founder, Joe Damico and current Avalign CEO, Forrest Whittaker, evaluated the future contract manufacturing needs of the orthopaedic market place.  They envisioned a market that would experience significant change; consolidation, increased regulatory scrutiny, constraints on capital and pricing pressures.  They foresaw the need for a "one stop shop" platform company that offered integrated best-in-class quality systems, strong financial systems and highly responsive, lean development and manufacturing infastructure.  The Avalign goal has been to establish itself as THE high performance, cost effective outsource supplier to the orthopaedic, spine and trauma OEM market.

Advantis Medical, a sterilization case and tray manufacturer, was purchased in January, 2007 to offer world class custom sterilization cases and trays to orthopaedic OEM's.  Later that year in August, Nemcomed was purchased to offer instrument and implant manufacturing capabilities to our current customer base.  In May, 2009, Avalign made their last acquisition, NG Instruments.  NG Instruments specializes in manufacturing drills, taps, and reamers.  This purchase rounded out the full offering such that Avalign is now able to offer a complete "dock to stock" system for our customers.

In 2011, Avalign Technologies, Inc. will be modifying its name to reflect the full integration of all of four divisions into one company.  The new branding strategy marks the transition from four individual offerings to a seamless, integrated, responsive customer product platform; Avalign.
