PRESS RELEASES:

Opto Circuits subsidiary Bags CE accredition for Dilation Catheters and Guide Wires Targets 6 Million Euros in sales              

 

Bangalore, May 30’ 06: EuroCor GmBH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Opto Circuits (India) Ltd. (OCI), a leading manufacturer of healthcare equipments in India, has received CE approval for marketing and sale of Amadeus Supercross, a coronary dilation catheter and E-WIRE, a guide wire for interventional use. Both products are used in Coronary Angioplasty (Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty- PTCA). CE-approved Amadeus Supercross and E-WIRE are expected to add 3-5 Million and 1 Million Euros respectively, per year.

 

Highlighting the strategic importance of this development, Vinod Ramnani, Chairman & Managing Director, OCI, said: “The CE certification adds a global dimension to both the products as we can now tap almost 50% of the large US $ 8 billion PTCA market (i.e., stents, balloons, guidewires, guide catheters and accessories). It is of considerable consequence in boosting revenues for EuroCor; in the first year itself, we expect Amadeus and E-WIRE to together to garner around 4-6 million Euros and with a three-year perspective that translates into 189 to 325 million Rs. for Opto.”


Coronary artery dissections and spasms are common issues during an Angioplasty and Amadeus Supercross provides just the controlled safety balloon compliance for less dissections & low trauma PTCA. EuroCOR’s E-WIRE is used to guide an interventional device (such as a balloon catheter) for restoring normal blood flow to an obstructed vessel and its key feature is that it removes abrupt transitions.

 

EuroCOR has recently received CE approval for its blockbuster drug-eluting stent- TAXCOR, subsequent to which the company bagged orders from Brazil and Egypt totaling 41.8 crore.

 

OCIL and EuroCor GmbH have an aggressive marketing strategy to promote its entire range of interventional coronary stent systems and balloon dilation catheters through already appointed and established 26 distributors located worldwide. EuroCOR has also signed a distribution agreement with the German/Swiss medical device sales organization "Fumedica AG" which took overall marketing and distribution rights of this product basket for the German and Swiss market.
