At OPT Industries, we invent material systems that perform beyond anything previously imaginable. Our team is creating a vertically integrated manufacturing, design, and software solution that is capable of providing fully customizable, precision engineered products at high volumes and short lead times.
Join us and become a part of our mission.
OUR PROCESS
We build automated manufacturing systems that rapidly assemble mechanical meta-materials at production scale. Our manufacturing technology provides bespoke material solutions to various industries using the proprietary polymers that we have developed in house. Each formulation is thoroughly tuned, validated and tested for its intended product application. Our generative software platform allows us to work with our clients to quickly optimize, customize, and manufacture a large range of product iterations that are instantly ready for market.
OUR HISTORY
Spun off from the MIT Media Lab, OPT Industries was founded with the goal of pushing the design and production limitations of digital manufacturing. Drawing inspiration from nature and mass manufacturing, we provide novel materials for both aesthetic use and engineered applications.
OUR TEAM
The OPT team is an interdisciplinary and globally diverse group with backgrounds in automation engineering, polymer science, computer science, architecture and industrial design. We hold ourselves and our work to equally high standards of scientific rigor, aesthetic quality, and functionality. The roles and responsibilities of our engineering, software, design, material, and production teams overlap significantly to ensure that every project is made to perform and designed to delight.
