What BONESUPPORT does
BONESUPPORT is a Swedish orthobiologics company that develops and commercializes CERAMENT, a proprietary injectable bioceramic bone graft substitute platform, founded in 2000 and headquartered in Lund, Sweden. The company is publicly listed on Nasdaq Stockholm (BONEX) and operates wholly-owned sales subsidiaries across Europe, the United States, and Switzerland, with a distribution partnership covering India. Its products address bone voids and bone infections caused by trauma, infection, disease, or related surgery across use cases including chronic osteomyelitis, fracture-related infection, diabetic foot osteomyelitis, open fractures, periprosthetic joint infection, and benign bone tumors. Hospital customers include Apollo Hospitals, King's College Hospital London, Oxford University Hospital, Manchester University Hospital, Charité Berlin, and HCA Florida Kendall.
The CERAMENT platform is built on a patented biphasic calcium sulphate/hydroxyapatite composition that remodels to host bone in six to twelve months. The product portfolio consists of four SKUs: CERAMENT BONE VOID FILLER (osteoconductive only), CERAMENT G (gentamicin-eluting for broad-spectrum infection coverage), CERAMENT V (vancomycin-eluting for MRSA/MRSE infections), and the CERAMENT Bead Tray accessory for bead delivery. CERAMENT G holds FDA 510(k) clearance as the first and only product indicated to reduce occurrence and recurrence of bone infection in open fractures; CERAMENT V has received FDA Breakthrough Device designation and is currently progressing through the De Novo pathway. Reported clinical outcomes include a 94% infection eradication rate in chronic osteomyelitis (100 patients, 6.05-year average follow-up), 87.5% five-year survival versus 44.9% standard treatment in diabetic foot osteomyelitis, and a 3.7% deep infection rate versus 14.5% standard of care in Gustilo-Anderson IIIB open fractures.
BONESUPPORT generates revenue through direct B2B sales of medical devices to hospitals and orthopaedic surgeons, with field sales teams covering DACH, BeNeLux, UK & Ireland, the Nordics, Iberia, and the United States, supported by KOL-led clinical training programs and a channel partner (Apollo Hospitals) for India. North America represents approximately 75% of total sales, with Europe (EUROW) contributing the balance plus a small initial contribution from India. FY2025 revenue was SEK 1,175 million (up from SEK 899M in 2024 and SEK 591M in 2023), gross margin was 92.6-92.9%, and EBITDA was positive. The company has 101-250 employees and is led by CEO Torbjörn Sköld (effective September 2025) and CFO Håkan Johansson, with Dr. Michael Diefenbeck as Chief Medical Officer. Recent strategic moves include the India launch (May 2026), CMS NTAP approval and proposed improved reimbursement for CERAMENT G in the US, the SOLARIO study readout, and a SEK 100 million share buyback program completed in June 2026.
