Company overview

Curiteva is a privately held spinal implant and manufacturing company founded in 2017. It describes itself as Huntsville-area based, while its current corporate headquarters address is in Tanner, Alabama. Its portfolio spans interbody implants, fixation systems, surgical instruments and biologic graft products.

The Inspire platform combines 3D-printed porous PEEK structures with surface technology. FDA records identify several interbody and laminoplasty systems, including a January 2026 decision spanning multiple porous PEEK families. Separate product families and multiple procedures should not be treated as one universally cleared system.

Company announcements describe more than 10,000 treated levels in January 2026 and plans for increased manufacturing capacity and an innovation center. Those are manufacturer-reported adoption and expansion signals, not audited outcomes or evidence that a planned facility is already operational. The company’s leadership page identifies Eric Linder as founder and CTO.

Summary

Curiteva’s Inspire/porous PEEK family has several 510(k) decisions, including standalone ALIF K250845 and cervical interbody K254061, which were absent from the earlier snapshot. Other fixation and navigation decisions are recorded separately. The company’s nanotechnology language does not constitute a separate FDA marketing pathway. [22][20][1][4][8][10][23][24]

No matching FDA recall event was identified in the completed company/applicant, linked-identifier and product-name searches. [26][27]
