Industrial Applications

Mechanical metamaterials driving future innovation

Advanced materials drive the future for every major industry.

At Multiscale Systems, we’re redefining the bounds of what’s possible by lowering barriers to the next era of innovation.

We’re currently developing systems for the following markets, but the possibilities are endless.

Transportation

Transportation of goods and products is essential for our quality of life. Lighter, stronger materials let carriers haul more cargo per load, lower operating costs, and increase trailer lifetime. Exceptional cellular volume fraction provides superior thermal insulation for temperature sensitive cargo.

Geothermal & Drilling

Enhanced geothermal systems get so hot, liquid water goes beyond steam and becomes a super critical fluid. Engineered equipment in these extreme conditions demand resilience in order to reduce costly downtime wasted on repairs.

Defense

Since the Cold War, US Military overmatch capabilities have faded. Advanced materials fielded from the domestic industrial manufacturing base are critical dual-use solutions that strategically restore favorable conditions, especially in the era of multi-domain operations.
