Key Features of HX20 Natural Hydroxyapatite (HAp)

  • Natural Origin: Sourced from animal-derived materials (e.g., bovine), our HAp closely replicates the composition and structure of human bone, enhancing biological performance.

  • Biocompatibility: Demonstrated to be safe for contact with living tissues, making it suitable for medical, dental, and cosmetic applications.

  • Osteoconductivity: Promotes bone cell attachment and growth, making it ideal for use in bone grafts, implants, and scaffolds.

  • Trace Elements: Naturally retains beneficial minerals such as magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), and strontium (Sr), which support bone regeneration and healing.

  • Versatile Particle Sizes and Morphologies: Can be formulated into pastes, powders, coatings, or 3D structures to suit specific application needs.

  • Excellent Processability: Compatible with various manufacturing methods, including sintering, 3D printing, and compounding into biomaterials.

  • Low Carbon Footprint: Produced through an eco-friendly thermochemical extraction process that uses no harmful solvents or synthetic additives, ensuring a sustainable product.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Derived from traceable, BSE/TSE-free raw materials, supporting compliance with TGA, FDA, and CE regulations.

  • 100% Traceable: Going beyond compliance, raw material can be traced completely back to the paddock

At HX20, one of our key advantages is the ability to produce natural hydroxyapatite (HAp) from a variety of animal species—including bovine, ovine (sheep), porcine (pig), camel, and marine sources. This flexibility is essential for meeting religious, cultural, and regional preferences in the development and commercialization of biomaterials.

For example:

  • Bovine-derived HAp is widely accepted and commonly used across many regions.

  • Ovine or camel-derived HAp can address the needs of Halal markets, where porcine materials are prohibited.

  • In Hindu-majority regions, non-bovine sources such as porcine or marine may be more culturally appropriate.

  • Our process ensures traceability and supports certifications for Kosher, Halal, and other ethical or religious standards as needed.

This adaptability allows us to:

  • Enter diverse global markets without being restricted by religious or cultural requirements.

  • Partner with local suppliers to ethically and sustainably source raw materials.

  • Tailor our products to meet specific clinical or regulatory demands where the origin of the material is critical.
