Welcome to Total Materia Horizon

Total Materia Horizon is an online materials database and material properties platform for engineers and material specialists. Use it to find reliable engineering material data for material selection, design, and simulation—including data you can export to CAE/CAD workflows.

With Total Materia Horizon you can:

  • Search and compare material properties across standards and regions

  • Identify equivalent materials (cross-reference grades internationally)

  • Support materials laboratories by verifying material identity and properties from spectrometer chemical composition

  • Check material compliance and select trusted material suppliers

New: Optimizer (material selection optimization)

The Optimizer module helps you optimize material selection against your project requirements (technical performance, cost, and regional constraints). It uses ranking and scoring to surface the best-fit materials, plus tools to find better alternatives and equivalent materials across different standards worldwide.
