Both companies have products for hip resurfacing and for total hip replacement as well. Birmingham is owned by Smith & Nephew, and Depuy is owned by Johnson & Johnson.

In rates of failures the "ASR system has a failure rate of 12% at 5 years compared to 4.3% of the BHR" - according to a study. Also a crucial component of the ASR system, the ASR XL Acetabular System has been recalled in 2010 due to high failure rates. Sources quoted in links section.
