Chamfr
Giving engineers an edge to innovate faster thousands of components, equipment & tools from lots of suppliers including Johnson Matthey, Teleflex and Viant. Chamfr is a female-owned medical device component marketplace founded by 3 co-founders who saw an unmet need in the industry. Engineers needed fast access to components for early stage development but were frustrated by long lead times and lack of accessibility to medical-grade components for early stage development. At Chamfr, we are not a single company trying to push our products. Instead, we give medical device engineers access to a wide range of in-stock components and technologies for prototyping to spur the development of innovative medical devices. This allows design engineers to launch their products faster by being able to iterate without long lead times and high-cost minimum orders. With thousands of components, equipment & tools from lots of suppliers, all in stock and ready to ship, Chamfr is kind of like an Amazon for medical device components.
