Aligning with the AIA's commitment to sustainability in the built environment and the use of healthy building materials in those buildings, Anguleris creates technologies that streamline building product research and selection for architects. The Anguleris portfolio includes globally-recognized platforms canvassing BIM, specifications, and samples, all of which enable manufacturers to advance their development of an informed product selection strategy.
"As the architecture profession becomes increasingly committed to sustainability and health as key drivers of design and construction, materials and material science are becoming more critical to effective outcomes," said AIA EVP/Chief Executive Officer Robert Ivy, FAIA. "The depth, quality, and delivery of information assets to help inform architects is not consistent across the building products industry. Our work with Anguleris will change that."
"Building products are evolving at a rate that has not been previously seen," said Anguleris CEO Benjamin Glunz, Assoc. AIA. "Our team is honored to help AIA enhance the relationship between architects and building product manufacturers in the pursuit of an exceptional built environment."
The partnership with Anguleris, the creators of BIMsmith® and Swatchbox®, will support BPMs in the effort to achieve the goals of the soon to launch AIA Informed Product Selection Challenge. The challenge is aiming to help BPMs advance the development and delivery of data, information, and knowledge about their products. More information about the Informed Product Selection Challenge will be available in the fourth quarter of 2021.
