Materials and Processes Technology Board ( MPTB )
Membership and Points of Contact
Direct MPTB membership follows the ESCC charter and is open to ESCC signatory member states.
MPTB is chaired by ESA, and chair deputy from ArianeGroup.
Primary and secondary focal points from each MPTB entity representatives have a Materials and Processes background, with knowledge of REACH and other relevant environmental regulations. These are typically REACH officers and M&P experts.
Furthermore, the MPTB establishes ad hoc task forces and working groups dedicated to very distinct challenges, often related to the evolution of European regulations (REACH in particular) impacting the use of chemicals, materials and processes; these groups are composed of nominal members as well as external entities with a relevant background.
Lately, the MPTB is also liaising with SME associations such as SME4SPACE, and ESA’s SME support office, and national SMEs sub-groups to collect relevant information and challenges from an SME perspective.
