About

Hy2Care is a Dutch medtech company and spin-off of the Tech Med Centre at the University of Twente, focused on developing innovative hydrogel-based implants for repairing damaged cartilage. Founded in 2014 by Prof. Marcel Karperien and Dr. Sanne Both, the company's flagship product is the CartRevive® hydrogel implant — a bioresorbable, in-situ gelating hydrogel designed for the arthroscopic treatment of cartilage defects in joints, particularly the knee. The CartRevive® is composed of natural, joint-tissue-mimicking polymers that create a natural scaffold for the patient's own cells to regenerate new cartilage matrix, enabling functional repair without damaging surrounding tissue. Hy2Care's headquarters and laboratory are located at the Brightlands Chemelot Campus in Geleen, Limburg, a key innovation hub in the Netherlands.
