Bethlehem-based Tyber Medical LLC, the self-described global leader in private-label medical devices for major orthopedic trauma, extremity and spine companies, announced the expansion of its facility in Bonita Springs, Florida, by 33,000 square feet.
This is part of Tyber Medical’s $13 million-plus capital asset expansion plan over the next two years, effectively doubling the size of its Florida operations and adding new manufacturing machines, secondary equipment and additional new technologies.
A release said the new space will accommodate the company’s growing manufacturing needs and provide opportunities for new professional roles, as Tyber Medical anticipates an additional 50 jobs will be created over the next two years because of this move.
Ken Lee, vice president of manufacturing at Tyber Medical, said, “In a highly competitive market, this is positive, incremental growth in pursuit of providing rapid access to portfolio enhancing, regulatory approved, orthopedic implants. This expansion is good for Tyber Medical’s employees’ career development, its key stakeholders and, of course, its growing customer base.”
The expansion will enable Tyber Medical to also support larger and larger product launches, as the company continues its heavy expansion into plating and screw technology.
Since it was founded in 2012, Tyber Medical has released more than 50 spine, extremity and trauma systems.
