ReCerf Receives its CE Mark, Advancing Access to Ceramic Hip Resurfacing Across Europe
"This is more than a regulatory milestone. It represents two decades of focused effort to improve hip resurfacing through an advanced material," said Mike Tuke, Founder of MatOrtho. "That became a possibility with BIOLOX® delta and cooperation with CeramTec A.G. which led in stages to ReCerf – an all-ceramic resurfacing implant that is already delivering excellent results. We're proud to make this more widely available to specialist hip resurfacing surgeons, and patients who want to stay active."
ReCerf is the world's first commercially available ceramic HRA, first approved by Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration in November 2024. Since its initial use in 2018, over 1,600 patients have received the device. Patient-reported outcomes are highly positive, and the revision rate remains very low up to six years.
Made from BIOLOX® delta ceramic, ReCerf eliminates concerns historically associated with metal-on-metal bearings and preserves more of the patient's natural bone. For surgeons, it offers a familiar procedure underpinned by improved materials, and is supported by a company long recognised as the home of modern hip resurfacing.
ReCerf's availability under CE marking is matched by a strong commitment to responsible adoption. MatOrtho supports structured education, careful patient selection, and ongoing clinical monitoring. A peer-led surgeon training programme is already in place to ensure safe and effective use.
This achievement strengthens MatOrtho's strategic growth and reaffirms its leadership in pioneering orthopaedic solutions designed to restore normal joint function and support high level activity.
MatOrtho (formerly Finsbury Orthopaedics) is a global leader in orthopaedic invention and innovation, committed to advancing joint replacement technologies that improve patient outcomes and set new clinical standards.

Fujitsu will continue to contribute to a sustainable world by enhancing resilience through the integration of data, AI technologies, and industry expertise, minimizing the impact on customers' businesses even in unforeseen circumstances. Navigating uncertainty: supporting customer resilience amid industry supply chain challenges In recent years, geopolitical risks, natural disasters, and market fluctuations have heightened uncertainty for businesses around the world. The manufacturing industry, with its complex global supply chains, faces particularly significant risks. Unforeseen events can lead to changes in transportation routes, production stoppages, and increased costs, which can exert downward pressure on profits and reduce competitiveness.

Catch exhibits extensive high-grade copper and gold mineralization across a 5 km long trend, with rock samples returning peak values of 3.88% copper, 1,065 g/t gold, and 267 g/t silver.

The Carmacks Project hosts a Measured and Indicated Resource containing 651 Mlbs of copper and 302 koz of gold (36.3 million tonnes grading 0.81 % copper, 0.26 g/t gold, and 3.23 g/t silver and 0.01% molybdenum) with a 2023 PEA demonstrating positive economic potential ($230.5 M Post-Tax NPV (5%) and 29% Post-Tax IRR).

La Caisse firmly rejects allegations that it facilitates or encourages international crimes through its investments Français
MONTRÉAL, July 3, 2025 /CNW/ - Following the publication of the report by United Nations Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, La Caisse wishes to be clear and firmly rejects allegations that it facilitates or encourages international crimes through its investments. Allegations and facts must be corrected. For one, the majority of investments in the companies mentioned are not directly managed by La Caisse. They are managed by intermediaries or are held through standard products offered to all investors. Furthermore, La Caisse holds a very small percentage of shares in these companies, which limits its ability to directly influence them. In actual fact, it owns less than 0.1% of the majority of the companies identified. The rest are largely multinationals, such as Booking, Airbnb or Alphabet (Google), that are available and used all over the world and owned by a large number of investors. In addition, when La Caisse cannot exercise direct influence to encourage best practices, it does so through Federated Hermès, a globally recognized service provider specialized in shareholder engagement. We expect all of these companies to meet the highest standards wherever they operate. Lastly, La Caisse would like to reiterate that it has also ceased any new engagement in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. La Caisse also reaffirms that it acts at all times in full compliance with all requirements of Canadian law and will continue to act in accordance with international standards on this matter wherever it operates. La Caisse takes its responsibilities as a global investor very seriously and is committed to continue operating according to the highest standards of human rights. ABOUT LA CAISSE At La Caisse, formerly CDPQ, we have invested for 60 years with a dual mandate: generate optimal long-term returns for our 48 depositors, who represent over 6 million Quebecers, and contribute to Québec's economic development. As a global investment group, we are active in the major financial markets, private equity, infrastructure, real estate and private credit. As at December 31, 2024, La Caisse's net assets totalled CAD 473 billion. For more information, visit or consult our LinkedIn or Instagram pages.
