Corin products have been sold
in Australia since the early 1990's through a distributor
company, Baxter Healthcare Pty Ltd. In response to continued
strong sales growth and to surgeon acceptance of Corin's
products and techniques, a direct sales operation, Corin
Australia Pty Ltd, was established in 2004. Australia
continues to prove to be a key market for the Group and
Corin Australia currently supplies the Corin range of
products to over 80 hospitals across 6 states. |

The Cormet metal on metal resurfacing hip system and the Rotaglide+ and Uniglide mobile bearing knee systems continue
to be the favoured products in the Australian market.
Australian surgeons are involved in Corin research and
development projects including the clinical evaluation of
'Tubes Technology' for minimally invasive navigation for
Cormet and the implementation of design improvements to
Rotaglide+ instrumentation.
Based in Pymble, New South Wales, the Corin Australia office
is well placed to efficiently distribute to Australian
customers country-wide. Pymble is located just 15km north
west of Sydney, Australia's largest city and one of the
world's great seaports.
The
recently established New Zealand branch allows Corin to
respond to trans-Tasman surgeon interest in the product
range. Based just north of Wellington, the New Zealand
entity enables quick supply of
products to our New Zealand customers.
