ECA Moves Headquarters to Larger Facility

ECA Medical Instruments, a manufacturer of single-procedure, torque-limiting, and fixed-driver surgical instruments and procedural kits, has relocated to a new corporate headquarters building in Thousand Oaks, Calif. The company also has added a design center of excellence and product development laboratory in the new 24,000-square-foot space.

The recently-remodeled facility will house the company’s corporate executives as well as sales, marketing and product development teams. The design center and lab features state-of-the-art equipment and facilities permitting both ECA and customer design and engineering teams to collaborate on developing new single-procedure surgical instruments and surgical kits for the medical device implant market.

“Our company expansion allows us to scale rapidly to meet pent up demand for our surgical instruments and procedural kits in the U.S., off-shore and in emerging markets,” said John Nino, ECA’s president and CEO. “This new facility augments our existing [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] registered manufacturing site located just blocks away and provides space for our sales and marketing team and a world class design center for our product development group to create the industry’s next generation of single-procedure surgical instruments and procedural kits.”

ECA offers a portfolio of disposable torque-limiting and fixed-driver surgical instruments and multi-instrument surgical kits used to secure screws, fasteners and connectors for cardiac rhythm management, neuromodulation, cardiovascular and orthopedic implants. The company is a strategic supplier to major medical implant manufacturers worldwide including developers of pacemakers, defibrillators, ventricle assist devices and essentially every type of orthopedic implant including spine, small bone, extremities, trauma, cranial-maxillofacial, knee, hip, shoulder and general reconstruction products.
