What Shandong Weigao Orthopaedic Device does

Weigao Group's orthopedic implant subsidiary, making joint-replacement, spine and trauma devices.

Sells implants to hospitals mostly through distributors. China's government bulk-purchase tenders for joint, trauma and spine implants have set prices for much of the market, so winning tender volume matters more than list price. It is a listed subsidiary of Weigao Group, whose hospital relationships it draws on.

In one line: A Chinese Zimmer Biomet/Stryker Orthopaedics.
