As a Van Alen member, you are invited on a private tour of Material ConneXion, the world’s largest resource for innovative and advanced materials. With a library of more than 7,500 materials and processes, Material ConneXion bridges the gap between science and design to serve fields from architecture and fashion to the aerospace and automotive industries.

Material ConneXion helped HWKN’s architects find the perfect water-impervious composite polyurethane for a pop-up green roofdeck overlooking the Hudson River and led Nike to the flexible monofilament sleeving that hugs the wearer’s foot on the limited edition laceless Nike Jordan™.

See and touch their collection of revolutionary materials, normally restricted to their subscriber community of Fortune 500 companies, universities, design firms, and government agencies.

Join the Van Alen team and fellow members on the tour, which will take place at Material ConneXion’s New York space at the new Sandow Global Headquarters in the Time-Life Building. Light refreshments will be served.
