Welcome to Orthomaterials - Your orthopedic hub

ORTHOmaterials™ is a non-profit exchange platform for the orthopedic industry founded by FORECREU in 2012. It aims to establish a communication bridge between R&D, processes, purchasing and other personnel at suppliers, implant and equipment manufacturers, as well as related industry players by integrating resources upstream of the orthopedic industry chain, and is committed to showcasing cutting-edge materials and advanced processes used in the global orthopedic manufacturing industry.

From 2013 to 2017, we published the European, American, German, French and Chinese versions of the ORTHOmaterials™ Handbook of Materials and Processes for Orthopedic Applications. Since 2018, we have organized the annual ORTHOmaterials™ Orthopedic Device and Dental Implant Manufacturing Technology Forum in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province (from 2018 to 2022, the conference name is Seminar on ORTHOmaterials™ Orthopedic Application Materials and Process Technologies).
