The Belgian healthcare landscape demands exceptional standards for orthopedic implants. Supported by one of Europe's most rigorous reimbursement bodies—the National Institute for Health and Disability Insurance (RIZIV/INAMI)—hospitals in centers such as Brussels, Antwerp, Liege, and Ghent implement tight clinical governance. Orthopedic purchasing groups (GPOs) and university hospital networks require implant systems that demonstrate clear clinical efficiency, reduction of intraoperative revision rates, and compliance with Article 52 of the EU Medical Device Regulation.
Moventra’s range of cannulated titanium screws serves this precise ecosystem. By enabling minimally invasive percutaneous fixation under fluoroscopy, our cannulated hardware significantly shortens surgical duration in procedures managing scaphoid fractures, femoral neck compression, and arthrodesis of small joints. Through local Belgian medical device distributors, we address the specialized procurement cycles of the region, ensuring consistent material supply, sterile packaging validation, and exact metric sizing tailored to European anatomy.
The structural integrity of a cannulated screw depends on the design of the hollow internal canal relative to the external thread roots. To prevent stress concentrations and structural shear failures during guide-wire-guided insertion, the concentricity of our implants is monitored down to a sub-micron scale. Our manufacturing incorporates high-precision titanium alloy (specifically Ti-6Al-4V ELI conforming to ASTM F136), providing high tensile strength and fatigue resistance.
| Feature Spec | Material Composition / Dimensional Tolerance | Clinical Indications (Belgium Standards) |
|---|---|---|
| Micro-Diameter (2.4mm / 2.5mm) | Ti-6Al-4V ELI, Thread Tolerance ±0.01mm | Scaphoid fractures, osteochondritis dissecans, hand/foot arthrodesis |
| Medium Range (3.5mm / 4.0mm / 4.5mm) | Deep-thread self-tapping profile, 1.2mm guide-wire canal | Medial malleolar fractures, talar fractures, radial head reconstruction |
| Large Bore (6.5mm / 7.3mm) | Dual-lead reverse-cutting flutes, 2.0mm/3.2mm guide-wire guide | Femoral neck fractures, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, sacroiliac fixation |
| Headless Compression Screws | Variable pitch design, self-sinking micro-head | Intra-articular fractures, osteotomy fixation, minimal cartilage disruption |
From our 18,600 m² state-of-the-art facility, Moventra utilizes advanced Swiss-type CNC turning centers and automated multi-axis milling systems. The combination of precision turning and continuous laser metrology guarantees that the internal bore of each cannulated screw remains centered throughout the implant length. This precise centering prevents guide-wire binding, a common challenge during orthopedic surgeries.
Our quality assurance system is built to meet global compliance standards. We employ a dedicated team of 48 QC inspectors who run complete validation audits on every production lot. This includes ultrasonic cleaning verification, optical comparator dimensional mapping, micro-hardness testing, and chemical analysis reports. In addition, our cleanrooms are certified under ISO Class 7 (Class 10,000) standards, ensuring that all orthopedic trauma implants and spinal kits meet required pyrogen-free and sterile standards before packaging.
As clinical technology advances, Moventra's R&D department (comprising 86 specialized biomedical and mechanical engineers) is working on next-generation surface treatments. These include anodized type II coatings that improve wear resistance and lower coefficient of friction during insertion, along with bioactive calcium-phosphate thin-film depositions designed to promote direct osteointegration in osteopenic patients.
Our technical roadmap focuses on the integration of smart-tracking UDI (Unique Device Identification) systems laser-etched directly onto the screw heads. This meets the digital traceability regulations of the EU MDR and the integrated clinical software systems used in Belgian university medical centers.

How Moventra manages quality control and logistics for imports into the European Union and the Belgian clinical network.
Operating as an OEM/ODM partner for European medical device brands, we provide full support for EU MDR (2017/745) requirements. Our technical documentation includes ISO 13485:2016 quality system records, complete biocompatibility test files under ISO 10993, and clinical evaluation portfolios.
We perform extensive mechanical testing on every batch of orthopedic implants. This includes torsional strength validation, axial pull-out resistance testing, and insertion torque profile verification. These studies ensure that surgeons in Antwerp, Brussels, and wider European centers receive reliable, high-performance fixation hardware.
Moventra operates a reliable international supply chain, shipping to over 40 countries with an annual export value of USD 23.8 Million. We work with leading logistics networks to provide prompt delivery to distribution centers in Wallonia and Flanders.

Our cannulated screws are manufactured using raw Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) titanium alloy, conforming strictly to ASTM F136 and ISO 5832-3 standards. This medical-grade alloy offers a reduced oxygen, nitrogen, and iron content compared to standard grade 5 titanium. This composition provides enhanced fracture toughness and fatigue resistance under cyclic loads in anatomical fixation. All material batches are supplied with complete mill test certificates demonstrating chemical composition and mechanical validation.
We use specialized Swiss-type CNC automatic lathes equipped with high-pressure internal coolant systems and deep-hole drilling technology. By continuously checking bore alignment with laser optical sensors, we maintain a concentricity tolerance of within ±0.02 mm across the entire length of the screw. This prevents localized wall thinning and potential failure during orthopedic procedures, ensuring smooth guide-wire insertion.
For European Union imports, we supply a comprehensive documentation pack. This includes ISO 13485:2016 quality management certification, CE certification documentation, EU Declaration of Conformity under MDR 2017/745, and detailed materials traceability reports. We also supply sterilization validation documents (for sterile orders) and mechanical performance reports (such as torsion and insertion torque testing) to support local registry compliance.
Yes, our facility offers comprehensive OEM/ODM services. We can customize thread pitches, design headless profiles, and produce specific surgical instrument configurations. We also provide direct laser-marking for custom logo placement and catalog numbers, as well as anodized color-coding to help surgical staff easily identify screw diameters during procedures.
Standard product orders are typically processed and shipped from our inventory within 10 to 15 business days. For bulk OEM production or customized thread configurations, the manufacturing timeline is generally 30 to 45 days, which includes quality assurance and cleanroom packaging. We work with air-express cargo carriers to ensure final delivery to hubs in Brussels or Liege within 5 to 7 days from dispatch.
