KELOWNA, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lumiant Corporation is pleased to announce that it has relocated the core of its business operations from Calgary, Alberta to Kelowna, British Columbia. Lumiant moved its corporate offices, R&D lab and pilot manufacturing operation to a new, larger facility in Kelowna that provides the additional space and resources needed for the company to more efficiently expand and grow its business. The company still maintains its scientific software group at the Alastair Ross Technology Centre in Calgary.
Lumiant Corporation is a market-driven materials science company committed to discovering, developing and producing breakthrough materials for next generation industrial products. The move to Kelowna also enables the company to take advantage of the region’s excellent available high-tech talent pool and other resources.
Lumiant Corporation was founded in 2011 with the goal of creating a platform for the market-driven discovery and development of novel advanced materials for industry. The Company utilizes its proprietary XaedraTM materials discovery software that integrates artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, and quantum physics, as well as scalable manufacturing capabilities. The Company describes its material discovery methodology as Rational Material Design, or RMD, which has proven to be a highly efficient approach to accelerating the discovery and development of new materials.
The company’s first product, TitanMade, is a titanium ceramic composite and the result of a 5-year intensive R&D effort. Compared with commercial ballistic armour ceramics, TitanMade has many superior properties of great interest to the armed forces and police departments.
“We look forward to growing our company and contributing to the Kelowna economy,” stated Mr. Richard Holloway. “Our Kelowna relocation offers several ideal business advantages, while providing our employees with an excellent environment to raise their families. In short, we are truly happy to be here.”
