Robi Decking, a leading manufacturer of premium hardwood decking and architectural wood products, has announced a partnership with BIMsmith, the leading product research platform for building professionals, for the development of new Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools for architects, designers, and other building professionals.
The partnership includes a set of new Building Information Modeling (BIM) product models for Robi Decking’s line of sustainably harvested hardwood decking, rainscreen siding, porch flooring, and architectural wood products. These digital models contain key data representing geometric and aesthetic properties, supporting more accurate early-stage design. Each model is natively built for Autodesk Revit, the global leader in BIM design software.
The collaboration also makes Robi Decking’s products available on BIMsmith Market, the leading cloud platform used by architects and engineers to conduct building product research and download Revit content.
“Architects are constantly seeking materials that bring durability, sustainability, and natural beauty into their projects,” said Elizabeth Earley, Marketing Manager at Robi Decking. “With our new BIM content, we’re making it easier than ever for design professionals to visualize and specify our products right from the start of their workflow.”
“Robi Decking’s commitment to sustainability and quality craftsmanship adds real value to today’s architectural palette,” said Benjamin Glunz, CEO of BIMsmith. “We’re excited to help bring Robi’s premium hardwood products into the hands of building professionals worldwide through BIMsmith.”
