Overview

Established Polish manufacturer of cardiovascular stents, balloons and interventional devices, exporting globally.

What they do

Balton is an established Polish manufacturer of interventional medical devices, based in Warsaw. It produces a broad range of cardiology and radiology products, including coronary and peripheral stents, balloon catheters, guide wires, introducers, diagnostic catheters and electrophysiology and valvuloplasty devices, and exports to markets worldwide.

Lead program & status

Balton is particularly known for its dedicated coronary bifurcation technology, the BiOSS (Bifurcation Optimisation Stent System), including the sirolimus-eluting BiOSS LIM on a cobalt-chromium platform, which has been studied in first-in-man and subsequent clinical work since around 2008. Its commercial catalogue spans multiple stent and catheter families such as PROLIM, ALEX and ALEX PLUS coronary stents and the FRYDERYK, RIVER and VALVER catheter systems. The company is recognised among international players in the interventional cardiology devices market.

Why it matters

Few European companies design and manufacture their own coronary stents end to end. Balton's dedicated bifurcation devices address a technically difficult subset of coronary lesions, and its export reach makes it a notable Polish presence in a market dominated by large US multinationals.
