About MARTECH3D

MARTECH3D is a start-up 3D sales and marketing platform that allows businesses within the industrial machinery, medical technology and wider manufacturing industries to showcase and demo their products virtually.

The platform helps businesses digitally market physical products more effectively and deliver more engaging virtual sales presentations.

The idea for transforming how the manufacturing and med-tech industries market and pitch products came from CEO, Mark Worger, who has a background in med-tech sales. He saw how unsustainable traditional processes are, both economically and environmentally, and sought to develop a solution to solve the problem of how to showcase physical products in an increasingly digital world. MARTECH3D was founded in 2020.

MARTECH3D comprises four core tools in one centralised platform: 

The 3D virtual showroom is a photo-realistic 3D environment that allows businesses to display product ranges in an engaging and innovative way.

3D interactive product demos enable users to see and learn how products work in a way that simulates a physical demo. 

The AR product viewer allows users to visualise products in their own space using a smartphone or tablet, and the 3D product configurator simplifies custom product building, removing the chance of configuration errors. 

MARTECH3D won the Corporate LiveWire 2023 Innovation & Excellence Award and is an affiliate member of MTA, PPMA, UKIVA, and BARA.
