As part of the key operating items listed for FY 2013, Ergoresearch included the launch of the OdrA orthotic device, aimed at alleviating pain related to knee osteoarthritis, and three company acquisitions. Ergoresearch purchased Laboratoire Podotech, Prévost, Quebec, in October 2012; Laboratoire Langelier, headquartered in Beloeil, Quebec, in January 2013; and Victhom Human Bionics, Montreal, Quebec, in April 2013.
According to a company press release, Laboratoire Langelier ranked second after Ergoresearch in the Quebec foot orthotics industry, and the Victhom Human Bionics acquisition gave Ergoresearch significant O&P patents, including intellectual property used in the Össur Power Knee.
“We will take advantage of the next few months to properly integrate our recent acquisitions, accelerate product promotion (including the OdrA orthotic device) and we’ll remain observant in regards to new business acquisition opportunities,” said Sylvain Boucher Ergoresearch president and CEO.
