About RUA Life Sciences

The RUA Life Sciences group was created in April 2020 when RUA Life Sciences Plc (formerly known as AorTech International Plc) acquired RUA Medical Devices Limited to create a fully formed medical device business. RUA Life Sciences is the holding company of the Group's four trading businesses, each exploiting the Group's patented polymer technology.

Our vision is to improve the lives of millions of patients by enabling medical devices with ElastEon (TM) , the world's leading long-term implantable polyurethane.

Whether it is licensing ElastEon (TM) , manufacturing a device or component, or developing next generation medical devices, a RUA Life Sciences business is pursuing our vision.

ElastEon(TM)'s biostability is comparable to silicone while exhibiting excellent mechanical, blood contacting and flex-fatigue properties. These polymers can be processed using conventional thermoplastic extrusion and moulding techniques. With over 7 million implants and 14 years of successful clinical use, RUA's polymers are proven in long-term life enabling applications.

The Group's four business units are:

 
 RUA Medical        End-to-end contract developer and manufacturer 
  :                  of medical devices and implantable fabric specialist. 
 RUA Biomaterials   Licensor of Elast-Eon (TM) polymers to the medical 
  :                  device industry. 
 RUA Vascular:      Development of large bore polymer sealed grafts 
                     and soft tissue patches.
