What Gomina does
Gomina AG is a privately held Swiss manufacturer of precision surgical instruments for bone surgery, headquartered in Niederwald, Switzerland, and founded in 1974. The company operates entirely in the medical device vertical, serving orthopedic surgeons and hospitals worldwide with reusable instruments used in hip and knee revisions, knee arthroplasty, and trauma and small bone surgery. All production is carried out exclusively in Switzerland under a fully in-sourced manufacturing model that has been consolidated since 2005, with the Medical Finish Center opened in 2007 supporting in-house grinding, CNC machining, and finishing capabilities.
Gomina's product portfolio centers on four lines: (1) oscillating and reciprocating surgical saw blades featuring proprietary toothing that combines cutting and broaching teeth in an asymmetrical arrangement; (2) the patented Keel Blade and its Reciprocating Keel Blade variant for tibial groove preparation in knee arthroplasty, supported by a peer-reviewed study demonstrating significantly reduced fracture rates; (3) the template-guided Extraction Set for hip and knee revisions, offered in universal and system-specific versions templated to six major hip implant platforms (Corail, Quadra, AmiStem, Avenir, Fitmore, optimys); and (4) surgical rasps. Saw blades are compatible with nine major surgical power tool systems from manufacturers including Aesculap, Stryker, Synthes, Arthrex, and Zimmer. The company holds EN ISO 13485:2016 and EU MDR certifications.
Gomina's revenue model is direct and indirect B2B hardware sales of reusable, certified surgical instruments to hospitals and orthopedic surgeons through international country representatives and direct sales, complemented by event-driven demand generation at European orthopedic conferences. Its subsidiary Gomina Germany (founded 2021) supports German-market distribution, and recent co-exhibition partnerships with Hospinova, Premier Surgical, and Cumos extend its European footprint. No pricing is publicly disclosed and the company is entirely self-funded with no external investment rounds on record.

Products and services
- Surgical Saw Blades for Bone Surgery Oscillating and reciprocating saw blades for bone surgery featuring Gomina's unique tooth technology that combines cutting and broaching teeth for high sawing performance, with asymmetrical arrangement providing optimum guiding properties. Reusable, certified in sterile and non-sterile versions, and compatible with drive systems from Aesculap, Arthrex, De Soutter, Linvatec/Hall, MicroAire, Stryker, Synthes/AO, Tuke Saw, and Zimmer.
- Extraktionsset (Extraction Set) for Hip and Knee Revisions Innovative template-guided extraction set for hip and knee revision surgeries, comprising rigid chisels, a jig/chuck, and an ergonomic handle. Chuck-guided revision surgeries minimize bone loss and lead to shorter operating times. Available as a universal system and in versions tailored to hip implants including Corail (DePuy Synthes), Quadra (Medacta), AmiStem (Medacta), Avenir (Zimmer Biomet), Fitmore (Zimmer Biomet), and optimys (Mathys).
- Keel Blade Set for Knee Arthroplasty Patented saw blade with innovative tooth geometry for precise tibial keel groove preparation in knee arthroplasty. The reciprocating Keel Blade prepares exact grooves without bone fragments, eliminating the need for secondary groove finishing. Supported by a scientific study showing significantly decreased fracture rates versus conventional designs.
- Reciprocating Keel Blade Advanced reciprocating saw blade for tibial keel groove preparation in knee arthroplasty, backed by peer-reviewed research demonstrating reduced fracture rates compared to conventional methods.
- Rasps (Raspeln) Surgical rasps produced using decades of abrasive technology expertise, available in various shapes, abrasive patterns, and surface roughness levels for bone preparation in orthopedic surgery.
- Chisels with Accessories (Meissel mit Zubehör) Rigid chisels used as part of the template-guided extraction set for hip and knee revision surgeries, used with the jig/chuck system and ergonomic handle to remove implanted components with minimal bone loss.
