👣 A toe to go – the first metatarsophalangeal joint

🚶‍♀️ The first metatarsophalangeal (MTP-1) joint plays a crucial role in gait and mobility.

🦶 Conditions such as hallux rigidus and hallux valgus can significantly affect patients’ quality of life, making the MTP-1 joint an important focus in foot and ankle care.

🔬 Although small, this joint deserves significant clinical attention and continued research.

In the 1990s Geistlich took a key strategy step refocusing on innovation and biomaterials. We sold our fertilizer business to Hauert. International suppliers were flooding the Swiss market with dumping prices, and traditional industrial products were coming under increasing pressure.

This moment was more than just a business transaction, as Philipp Hauert sums up aptly: “It was clear to us: Geistlich Fertilizers stands for tradition, quality, and trust. Continuing this legacy was not only an opportunity but an obligation to Swiss horticulture.”

The sale marks the end of an era and, at the same time, the beginning of a new one.

In the 1970s, Geistlich achieved true cult status.

We produced “Konstruvit,” the glue found in seven out of ten Swiss households and for which Geistlich was well known. The unforgettable Gerda Conzetti, the “nation’s craft queen featured “Konstruvit” on her craft show and turned the white-and-red tube into a Swiss icon.

A piece of everyday and television history, made by Geistlich.

Three inspiring days at the ESSKA Congress have come to an end, leaving us with great memories, meaningful connections, and valuable scientific insights.

It was a pleasure to take part in both scientific and social initiatives—from the energizing charity run to our Lunch Symposium. During this session, we had the opportunity to hear inspiring clinical experiences with Chondro-Gide® and Orthopure® XT.

Prof. Dr. med. Justus Gille shared insights on the AMIC® technique, Assoc. Prof. Tomasz Piontek presented his experience with Arthroscopic Matrix-Based Meniscus Repair (AMMR®), and Prof. Stefano Zaffagnini discussed clinical outcomes using Orthopure® XT in ACL reconstruction.

A heartfelt thank you to ESSKA for the excellent organization, to our faculty and partners for their outstanding contributions, and to all participants who made these days so dynamic and impactful.

We return inspired, motivated, and already looking forward to the next opportunity to meet again.
