About GLW, INC.
GLW, Inc. is a medical device manufacturer specializing in minimally invasive orthopedic extremities and trauma surgery solutions. The company develops and manufactures implants and instruments using proprietary ortholucent technology—a composite of additive manufactured titanium and injection-molded PEEK polymer that provides superior intraoperative and postoperative visualization compared to traditional metal implants.

Primary markets are foot and ankle surgery and trauma orthopedics. GLW operates a US corporate headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, NJ and a European design and procurement center in Wurmlingen, Germany. The company maintains a surgeon advisory board and provides comprehensive resources including instructions for use and GTIN listings for procurement.
