At KLS Martin, we offer a unique opportunity to contribute to the success of a dynamic and thriving company whose products are used daily across the world to help surgical patients.

Our product portfolio includes titanium and resorbable implants for reconstruction, innovative distraction devices to stimulate bone lengthening, over 4,000 surgical instruments, and other surgical products designed specifically for CMF and cardiothoracic surgeons.

KLS Martin is an innovative leader in the treatment of CMF deformities and trauma cases.

This technology allows our surgeons to provide the best-in-class treatment for their patients.
