Do you work with biomaterials? Are you involved with the research, development or production of medical devices, prostheses, implants, components of medical devices or raw biomaterials or indeed are you a potential purchaser or consumer? If the answer is yes, join ECHAlliance and 11 other European partners in the ambitious goal of creating a global database and marketplace for biomaterials.

BIOMATDB is an Horizon Europe project coordinated by SYNYO GmbH that aims to bridge the gap between the demand and supply of biomaterials by providing simple, online, easy-to-access information with the added value of personalised support, through the development of an advanced database and marketplace.
