About Us

Trecco Ltd. Advanced 3D Printing

Trecco Ltd. creates cost-effective, patient-specific implants and customised surgical guides. With advanced 3D printing methods and state-of-the-art modelling technologies for complex oral, maxillofacial, craniomaxillofacial surgery (CMF) and neurological surgery, we’re proud to enhance healthcare to improve patients’ lives.

Ultimately, we assist leading-edge hospitals and physicians in transitioning toward digital manufacturing without prohibitive costs.

“We empower healthcare innovators to achieve what was only dreamed of recently. Through our software and hardware infrastructure, and in-depth knowledge of Additive Manufacturing, patient outcomes and an entire industry are advancing.”- Trecco, Ltd. 

Applications Of 3D Printing In Surgery

Since 2013, 3D printing in healthcare settings has increased exponentially. Hospitals across the globe have discovered the multitude of benefits that custom, 3-dimensional modelling provides over images alone to educate the next generation of surgeons, and guide complex operations with precision.

3D printing falls into three surgical categories:

  • Anatomic models and surgical guides
  • Patient matched implants and prostheses
  • Surgical instruments

The ability to generate an accurate physical model from digital information has opened a new frontier of possibility and is quickly rendering generic implants and reductive modelling processes obsolete.

Patient-specific 3D-printed anatomical models are advancing the world’s top medical schools, and implications for printed, implantable organs and other tissue will continue to change the face of medicine.

Most physicians are excited as we are to stay abreast of advancing technology as they strive to deliver lasting, life-saving interventions.

The only barrier has been cost.

Hospital-based 3D implant manufacturing labs are still out of reach for many and insurance coverage factors in purchasing factor heavily.

Accessible Medical 3D Printing

Premium, custom-printed designs and manufacturing to order carry a premium price tag, but Trecco is dedicated to reducing this barrier too.

We can imagine dramatic waitlist reductions for transformational surgery in the future.

We envision 100% personalised implants that carry significantly reduced complication risks and last longer than ever imagined.

We believe “the future” is attainable now. Additive Manufacturing is a rapidly evolving field, and we’re responding to pressure for developing better quality, durable, life-like and lasting custom implant devices.

Our surgical guides are reducing operating theatre times and improving outcomes. The cost saving is compelling, and real-life patient stories are inspirational.

Trecco Ltd. Executive Team

Over a decade of experience in Additive Manufacturing and Material Science, MSc in Advanced Engineering Materials and advanced design software proficiency guide our elite team.

We’re forever pushing the envelope of possibility for class I, II & III medical devices through materials and processes.

Combining creative, state-of-the-art R&D, with extensive material and manufacturing experience, we strive for affordable, accessible technology in operating theatres.

Trecco was founded on the belief that bespoke medical implants and their numerous advantages shouldn’t be a luxury.

We visualised where this industry was moving many years ago, and it’s our mission to deliver what physicians want today and tomorrow.

“Trecco provides specialist design and manufacturing services in the health sector- specifically patient-matched implants and surgical guides for complex oral, maxillofacial and neurological surgery.

New technologies have helped thousands of patients already. We’re honoured to be a part of this emerging industry.”

Our clients

Cardiac, vascular, orthopaedic, neurosurgical, and plastic surgeons take advantage of 3D printing for surgical planning, intraoperative guidance, education and reconstructive procedures.

External fixators, splints, surgical instruments, custom maxillofacial implants and surgical cutting guides are commonly requested.

At Trecco, we keep manufacturing overhead extremely low and pass on the cost-saving to our clients, delivering products, affordably. This allows many hospitals, educational programs and surgeons to access premium materials for patients and students.

Customised Implants Versus Off-The-Shelf Implants

What’s the actual cost difference? Generic implants and prostheses, even if altered through reductive methods at the point of care, aren’t perfect.

They can’t match the ideal fit that a personalised device does. This leads to concerns with malposition, unwanted tissue wear, rejection, and revisions. So why are they still in widespread use?

Patient-specific, custom-modelled implants lower postoperative spending related to complications, replacement, inpatient services, and skilled-nursing fees.

Longevity and improved quality of life are priceless benefits as well.

When offered the right design, and best fit, more practitioners than ever are choosing customisation.

Trecco is unique

Directed by years of digital design, research, and medical device development, we ensure hands-on attention to detail from initiation to rapid delivery.

You can access a close-knit team of industry experts without facility and development fees carried by other manufacturers. Our operating efficiency translates to a personal touch and fast turnaround for your order.

We reduce hospital overhead costs when you work with us as needed, instead of managing a high-priced, in-house lab and staff.

Additionally, because we continually innovate new processes and materials from around the world, your collaboration with Trecco means access to advanced methods and problem-solving.

Lean on our years of evidenced-based experience and the quality we stand behind. We’re well-versed in domestic and international medical device and safety regulations, ensuring compliance to prevent problems before they arise.

Surgical scenarios require fast, reliable delivery of essential tools and devices. In complex craniofacial deformities or orthognathic surgeries, accurate planning is critical. There is no margin for error, and that’s why Trecco is a trustworthy source for a growing family of discerning clients.

We limit the unknowns to deliver incredible results, the first time. As a result, your patients receive optimal outcomes.

Behind Your Custom Medical Implants

Implant and guide manufacturing in medicine requires a multidisciplinary team with advanced digital, design and materials training. Most surgeons aren’t familiar enough with 3D printing or troubleshooting CAD design to undertake the task.

We understand all the ways particular materials fail, and what numerous conditions and factors do to a prosthetic device or surgical tool. Our simulations reduce repeat prototyping or lengthy research processes for materials.

Using digital investigative techniques, we’ve optimised for weight-bearing and strength, tested harsh conditions and potential part failures, simulated hand calculations, ergonomics, and safety.

Leading Today And Tomorrow

In the future, 3D printing may not only be standard for training physicians, but indispensable for patient discussions and consent, valuable in the courtroom, and everywhere clear, 3D pictures need to demonstrate a thousand words.

Today, custom, patient-specific surgical guides and one of a kind 3D printed implants have already changed the medical world for the better. We can help you to bring your vision to life.
