Engraved in our culture is the Kerecis Moment. It is defined as the moment you realize the impact your work has on people’s lives. This impact is not only felt by the healed patient but also, quite often, by their family members.

As you can imagine it is very gratifying to hear the story of a stranger, whose life you have touched in such a positive way. marks the beginning of a story, a story of hope for the person who receives the product. In most cases the employees of Kerecis will never meet that person.

In this case however, the story of hope brought Eileen Kosar from Chicago Illinois to where that story started, in our biotech manufacturing facility in Isafjörður 20 miles off the Arctic circle, creating a true Kerecis Moment for our employees.

This is her story.
