In recent decades, the medical device industry has been moving towards the miniaturization of long-term implantable electrodes and microelectrode arrays to treat various cardiac, neurological, retinal and hearing disorders.

We are pleased to announce that Pulse Technologies has been awarded a Silver EcoVadis Medal, recognizing our efforts to run both sustainably and ethically. This medal acknowledges us as a growing leader in sustainability for our industry, with our score putting us ahead of 75 percent of companies assessed by EcoVadis.

A new surface modification process enhances the properties of the metal alloys used for implantable medical electrodes. Called laser restructuring, this patented process employs carefully-controlled laser pulses to create engineered microstructures on the metal substrate surfaces.
