Materiom partners with Iris.ai to create a database for regenerative materials

Iris.ai has recently partnered with Materiom to help building the world’s largest database and research community of material science knowledge to aid the transition away from petrochemicals. With the automated extraction and systematizing of the content, recipes and ensuing properties of materials from more than 50,000 articles, Materiom will have laid a solid foundation for their groundbreaking community of researchers. This database will then be published on Materiom’s platform to speed up R&D processes and market entry of regenerative materials. This will ultimately lead to reduced plastics pollution, and the creation of a materials economy that benefits ecological regeneration. 

“We are excited to collaborate with such a great team of enthusiastic professionals and scientists like Materiom. Seeing how our Extract tool can extract such a big number as 50k documents and extract data from a wide range of renewable materials is thrilling. Even more, as we are contributing in that way to a more sustainable world.” – says Kimberly Holtz, Key Account Manager at Iris.ai.

“Iris.ai is helping us get to scale with our open database, a resource that will accelerate regenerative materials R&D” – Alysia Garmulewicz, Founder and Co-CEO of Materiom, states.
