Introduction

Whether you are making trains, automobiles, or commercial vehicles, effective use of materials information can have a major impact on your business. The same goes for suppliers of vehicle components, from tyres to engine parts.

Materials properties - strength, lightness, toughness - determine your product performance. Materials costs and environmental properties impact your bottom line and your ability to comply with regulations. So initiatives to optimize performance, improve quality, or address legislation such as EuP, REACH, and RoHS must capture, analyze, and apply data effectively.

Granta's unique software helps you to do this. Our GRANTA MI materials information system helps you to manage and use critical data, our CES Selectors offer valuable materials selection capabilities, while our reference data provides information that helps you to take the right decisions.
