The flexible bone composite includes at least one 5 polymeric layer and at least one calcium-containing layer. The polymeric layer can be a polymeric layer including a synthetic polymer. The calcium-containing layer can include a calcium compound such as p-Ca 3(PO 4)2 . The flexible bone composites of the invention are useful as bone void fillers and have improved handling characteristics.1/2 100 10 Fig. 1 3Fig 20 22 30 35 Fig. 3 Fig. 4A
