IDES and Granta Design Form Strategic Partnership
to Deliver World Class Polymer Selector
Manufacturing News Center
LARAMIE, Wyo., USA and Cambridge, U.K. --December 07, 2003-- IDES
and Granta Design announced a strategic partnership to create IT solutions
based on the combination of IDES’s vast plastics datasheet database
and Granta’s comprehensive software for materials IT.
IDES is the technology and market leader in plastics data management
services and has compiled a database of more than 49,000 material property
datasheets. It is acknowledged as the most comprehensive and up to date
collection available.
Granta Design’s CES4 software family is described as the first and only
comprehensive system for materials IT. CES4 encompasses everything in
materials IT from lab test data management, material selection, web-based
publishing, reference databases, and online handbooks.
"Through this important partnership with IDES, we are able to provide
our customers with access to the world's largest database of plastic materials,"
said Granta Design COO Patrick Coulter. "The data integration into our
CES Software allows users to thoroughly analyze the vast amount of plastics
available worldwide and lower product costs by quickly locating materials
that best fit their design applications."
With Granta Design, IDES is able to extend our market reach to other industry
segments including colleges and universities where students first learn
the characteristics of product design and material selection," said IDES
President Mike Kmetz. "This is of benefit to us by having students become
familiar with our plastics data services early in their design career."
Data from IDES will be available through the Granta Design CES Software
sometime during the first quarter of 2004. For more information, please
