Aspen Medical Products

What Aspen Medical Products does

Aspen Medical Products is a privately held medical device company founded in 1999 and headquartered in Irvine, California, specializing in spinal bracing and orthopedic support products. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes approximately 184 products spanning cervical collars, cervicothoracic orthoses (CTO), lumbosacral orthoses (LSO), thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSO), knee and hip braces, foot and ankle devices, upper extremity supports, and therapeutic aids. Core product lines include the VRTX modular system (cervical-to-sacrum treatment), Horizon PRO, Vista, Summit, Evergreen, Sierra, Contour, Elite, Peak Scoliosis Bracing System, and the recently launched Popple LSO maternity brace. Proprietary technologies include the patented TriTrack Compression Mechanism, PJK-reduction technology in the Align Orthosis, and one-size adjustable modular architectures supported by 25 years of research-driven design and FDA-cleared, PDAC-coded devices.

The business operates a B2B model selling exclusively to licensed healthcare practitioners (orthopedic surgeons, spine surgeons, OB/GYNs, pain management clinics, pediatric orthopedists) through enterprise field sales, an account-gated Shopify e-commerce storefront, a dedicated German-language storefront for European distribution, and the AMP Partner Program for channel resellers. Revenue derives primarily from hardware sales of braces and accessories, supplemented by AMP DME Billing Solutions (professional services that help clinics optimize durable medical equipment billing) and replacement parts/upgrade kits. Pricing is unit-based, ranging from approximately $132 for cervical collars up to $1,424 for full-spine systems. Recent strategic activity includes the January 2025 acquisition of Advanced Orthopaedics, a 2025 sensor technology startup acquisition to enter smart wearables, and the Popple LSO maternity launch extending reach into OB/GYN channels.
