Doing Business with CanmetMATERIALS

CanmetMATERIALS, in addition to its research and certification programs, provides some services directly to clients. These services can be accessed through a variety of mechanisms, some of which offer cooperative ventures and some of which are full user pay. These services range in scope from the characterization of a single item to the full-scale investigation of a major catastrophe. Some of CanmetMATERIALS’s current clients include a number of universities, other government departments, major multinational corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises.

Since October 2003, the academic community has had facilitated access to the pilot-scale materials processing facilities at CanmetMATERIALS, through the academic user program, recently renamed the Resource for the Innovation of Engineered Materials (RIEM) program. The RIEM program is currently supported by a Major Resources Support grant that was awarded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada to the University of Alberta in 2007.
