Collagen Solutions introduces new online sales initiative in the US

Collagen Solutions plc (AIM: COS), the developer and manufacturer of medical grade collagen components for use in regenerative medicine, medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics, has launched a new B to C web-based business in the US to sell standard collagen products directly to end users in the research market.

This is an important initiative for the company as it directly connects Collagen Solutions with end users in a cost effective manner while simultaneously addressing the purchasing needs of researchers. Further, understanding the evolving requirements of this customer segment will help to ensure that the company is supplying the right products for the right markets. From the point of view of the end user, having easy access to medical grade collagen from the outset will help the transition from a research project to a full blown medical device.

Commenting on the new online store, Jamal Rushdy, CEO of Collagen Solutions said: "This initiative serves three purposes for Collagen Solutions. First, it increases our access to the estimated US$200m global market for cell culture reagents. Secondly, it gives us a direct link with the end users of our products so that we can understand their needs and how the market for collagen is evolving. Finally, it establishes Collagen Solutions as the go-to collagen supplier among investigators whose research will guide the rapidly advancing world of regenerative medicine."
