About Us

Ziptek LLC is accelerating its strategy to enter the knotless soft-tissue repair solutions market, initially with a rotator cuff repair device. We take pride in offering our patent protected and patent pending ZipE® knotless tissue repair and attachment solution devices for our surgeon's needs which should be available in 2015. Ziptek"s founder has over 18 years of continued intellectual property experience and Ziptek's backbone is based on 3 issued patents. Ziptek LLC has multiple pending patents, which expand its useage, finalize engineering and allow it to go Global.

ZipE® patent pending devices includes its suture capture, its screw, its screw driver capture pusher and its 2nd generation suture beads. This technology should greatly simplify tissue repair techniques when minimally invasive surgery is performed.
