What sets us apart?

We’ve seen the challenges of putting together a program like this and making change on this scale.

• We know the process and supply chain challenges that a shift like additive manufacturing will cause.

• We understand how to set up these operations and deal with the supply base issues.

We see a market opportunity to create a business that could grow sustainably for generations, as well as help others. We also wanted to bring our experience to bear on a company we could build ourselves and pass on to our families. We have a vision, and we have the capability to achieve it. A company like MatterProviders does not exist in the additive manufacturing and materials world today. Someone has to build it, and we plan to be the one.
