Dow has announced a partnership with BIMsmith, the leading product research platform for building professionals, for the development of new Building Information Modeling tools for architects, engineers and other construction professionals.

The partnership involves the creation of data-rich digital models of Dow products that integrate seamlessly with BIM design software used by building professionals globally.

Key benefits include:

• Each product model contains key data representing both geometric and performance capabilities of each product, which allows for highly accurate early-stage design.
• The digital models are designed to integrate natively with Autodesk Revit, the leading architectural design software worldwide.
• The partnership places Dow products in front of a global audience of building design professionals on BIMsmith Market, the leading cloud platform used by architects and engineers to conduct building product research.

“Dow’s innovation solutions have been making significant strides toward optimizing the performance of modern architecture,” said Jessica Mijal of Dow. “Our partnership with BIMsmith is another way for us to continue to extend our reach and provide solutions for building professionals across the globe.”

“Architects are always seeking access to new products that push the boundaries of building performance,” said Benjamin Glunz, CEO at BIMsmith. “We’re thrilled to make Dow’s line of performance silicone products available to the BIMsmith community of architects.”
