From a finished product to a purchase enquiry

The pack opens and its typical ingredients are set out around it, each with its Matta status.

What it is, why it is used, the grade a buyer would ask for, and which other products use it.
Source it on Matta
The matching Matta.trade listings with prices exactly as shown, or a quote request where no price is listed.
Every raw material, in one place
Search by common name or the name printed on the label.
Copied from the listing, never estimated
Every price was read from a public Matta.trade listing on 15, 19, 20 or 27 October 2026 and is shown with the supplier, listing name and unit exactly as they appeared. Each ingredient says which day it was read. Prices are a snapshot, not a live feed; the listing is always the final word.
Ingredient-count coverage is the number of a product's ingredients that match at least one Matta.trade listing, priced or quote-only, divided by the number of ingredients listed. Purified water, which manufacturers make themselves, is left out of both counts. It counts ingredients, not weight or cost: 5 of 6 ingredients is 83% by count, not 83% of the product.
Ingredient lists are illustrative: the typical ingredients of a kind of product, in typical order, without quantities. They are not any company's formula. Every brand on the packaging is invented, and the pack images are 3D renders of concept packs, not photographs of real products.
