What Peter Brehm does

PETER BREHM GmbH is a privately held German medical device company headquartered in Weisendorf (Medical Valley cluster, Franken) that develops, manufactures, and distributes hip and knee endoprosthetic implants. The company has been active in orthopedics since at least 1993 and positions itself as a "revision specialist" focused on complex primary and revision cases, with a portfolio spanning hip systems (AEON-System, Universalschaft Typ Erlangen, MRP-TITAN modular revision stem, MRS-TITAN Standard/Maximum/Comfort revision cups), knee systems (BPK-S Integration in primary, revision, and ceramic variants; TIBIAKONEN metaphyseal; KAM-TITAN arthrodesis module), and custom-made implants produced via additive manufacturing for extensive bone defects.

The technology base rests on three granted patents: the MRP-TITAN cone-plug connection enabling 360-degree anteversion adjustment, the MRS-TITAN Comfort inclination/anteversion mechanism, and the COVABOND silicate/silane coating that creates a hydrolysis-stable chemical bond with bone cement. Modular construction, cementless and cemented fixation options, 3D-printed trabecular surfaces, and patient-specific 3D planning underpin the product portfolio, with published clinical evidence showing 97% survival at 10 years and 85% at 15 years for the MRP-TITAN system.

The company sells through direct hospital sales in the DACH region and via distributors in international markets including Greece (MedBox Corp.), Peru (Surgicorp), and Ghana, with training-driven go-to-market executed through the PETER BREHM Academy (surgical weeks at EAC Mülheim/Ruhr, D-A-CH anatomy workshops, wet-lab courses, congress participation at DKOU and AE). Revenue is generated via negotiated hardware sales of implants and instruments; no publicly disclosed pricing, revenue figures, or external funding are available.
