In the field of skin regeneration, ‘diabetic foot disease’ is the most difficult to treat.
Rokit Healthcare’s skin regeneration platform uses tissue extracted from the patient’s body as a material for bio-ink, and it is attracting attention as a new treatment in the field of skin regeneration medicine, especially as it can be used right away in the operating room.

“I think (Rokit Healthcare’s technology) is very innovative. (Rokit) understands that every patient is different and uses the power of regenerative medicine and personalized methods. It is very innovative and we can bring this technology to the US. We are proud of our partners.”
In particular, the company signed an exclusive sales contract in the US with Tiz Medical, a US bio-healthcare company, in April.

Goyo. With this technology, we plan to use it to treat skin diseases and diabetic foot patients for the first time.”
Currently, 12% of the entire US population is diabetic, and one in 20 seconds has a leg amputated due to lack of effective treatment. Tiz Medical plans to provide new treatment technology through Rokit Healthcare’s technology and aims to treat 30,000 patients by 2025.

Our plant is a small business in a center of excellence facilities renowned for its expertise and “We’re just starting out and figuring out exactly how it works in the U.S. healthcare system. Next year we’re planning a much broader rollout and we’ll be able to get it to more clinicians.”
In addition, through this supply, the company aims to secure a market share of more than 10% in the US diabetic foot market, and is confident of securing more than 30% of sales.
