Manufacturer Spotlight: Radiant Australia
By Jordan Rowe | Mar 22nd, 2023
Radiant Australia partners with IGS group to provide high-quality BIM (Revit) content via the BIMcontent.com platform, streamlining and maximising access to Architects and Building Designers.
About Radiant Australia
As a market leader with close ties to industry-leading designers and Architectural practices, Radiant Australia recognised the growing trend of Building Information Modelling (BIM) workflows being used in project design and the increasing demand from specifiers for project-ready, data-rich BIM content from product suppliers.
Radiant Australia also noted Revit as the most frequently used project design software among designers, the importance of Revit content being developed to best practices, and the specialised nature of Revit content creation.
With the conception of BIMcontent.com by IGS, Radiant Australia joined as a foundation partner to streamline access of their Revit library to the growing community of specifiers using the platform, and to utilise the website integration feature which ensures cross-platform consistency and optimal user experience when accessing the Revit content from BIMcontent.com.
About the Radiant Australia Library
The Radiant Australia Revit library of bathroom Floor Grates and Heated Towel Rails has been created with the objective of finding the balance between functionality, documentation output, visualization capabilities, and performance in a Revit project environment. Available to download in Revit 2019 and all subsequent versions and includes an all-in-one Revit ‘Virtual Showroom’ for efficient library access, browsing and QA.
A notable feature of the Radiant Australia library is the Revit families being created using native geometry, allowing building designers to produce high-quality visualisation outputs where Radiant Australia’s products are incorporated within their designs.

Adding a library of high-quality BIM content to our portfolio of resources for building design professionals is a key part of our strategy to further strengthen our position as the market leader and the brand of choice in a competitive market.

Partnership Outcomes
Of the business impacts resulting from their BIM strategy to date, Radiant Australia has observed a range of benefits including their BIM content being used by specifiers in sales-generating projects, improved specifier engagement processes and the general significant goodwill among specifiers who are greatly appreciative of Radiant Australia’s investment in providing them with critical project design and documentation assets. Radiant Australia is also able to analyse BIM content utilisation and engagement metrics through the BIMcontent.com platform as a key driver in quantifying ongoing investment in BIM and providing valuable business insights.
To ensure designers can access the library using workflows optimised for browsing and downloading BIM content, Radiant Australia is making the library available via IGS group’s BIM content hosting platform and project design resource, BIMcontent.com. Radiant Australia has ensured designers are able to experience the optimised search, preview and download workflows on BIMcontent.com. This includes the ability to preview the 3D Revit geometry and materials directly in the web browser, view parameter data on the page prior to downloading and download specific versions of content – catering to various user preferences.
