Integra LifeSciences Acquires Two Schaerer Mayfield Lines

By HospiMedica staff writers
Posted on 01 Jun 2004
The acquisition of two new product lines for about U.S.$20 million has been announced by Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corp. More...
(Plainsboro, NJ, USA). The lines are the Mayfield Cranial Stabilization and Positioning Systems and the Budde Halo Retractor System, both from Shaerer Mayfield, USA, Inc. (Cincinnati, OH, USA), formerly the Ohio Medical Instrument Company.

The Mayfield and Budde lines include skull clamps, headrests, reusable and disposable skull pins, blades, retractor systems, and spinal implants. The acquired operations include a facility located in Cincinnati that manufactures, packages, and distributes Mayfield and Budde stabilization products, as well as a broad line of related instruments and disposables used in many neurosurgical and spinal procedures. In addition, Integra entered into a long-term license with SM USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Shaerer Mayfield USA, Inc., for the use of the Mayfield name in connection with the acquired business.

Integra NeuroSciences designs, manufactures, and sells implants, devices, and monitors used in neurosurgery, neurotrauma, and related critical care. "This acquisition strengthens Integra's position as the industry leader in neurosurgery and neurotrauma,” said Stuart M. Essig, president and CEO of Integra. "It allows us to continue to broaden and strengthen the product lines offered by our well-trained and experienced sales group.”

Schaerer Mayfield USA, Inc. is a subsidiary of Schaerer Mayfield Holding, AG, a company in Nidau, Switzerland, founded in 1892.
