A Project-Ready BIM Library
DECO Australia, a family-owned Australian manufacturer of premium aluminium building systems and finishes, announces a partnership with Australia’s leading BIM content specialists IGS Group (IGS BIM Solutions) to provide high-quality Revit (BIM) content via the BIMcontent.com platform, streamlining BIM content access to Architects and Building Design Professionals.
Cutting-Edge Features for Enhanced Design Capabilities
Developed in consultation with leading design practices, the DECO Australia Revit library encompasses user-friendly families and exceeds current industry benchmarks with sophisticated features that enhance design workflow efficiency.
This meticulously developed collection features DECO’s premium timber-look aluminium cladding and batten ranges, including:
- 6 Cladding Board profiles across the popular DecoClad® range
- 14 Batten profiles from the versatile DecoBatten® range
- 37 premium finishes across both product ranges, offering extensive design flexibility
- System Families including Curtain Walls and Basic Walls for streamlined integration
- Advanced PBR Materials for enhanced visualisation and rendering
- Native Revit 2D Construction Details also available in AutoCAD (DWG) and PDF formats
The library offers additional designer-friendly features including parametric controls for various configurations, integrated material and finish options, and consistent naming conventions across families, parameters and subcategories. All content has been developed to balance functionality, ease of use, performance in project models, scheduling capabilities, documentation quality, and visualisation output.
DECO’s aluminium cladding and battens are designed for durability, aesthetics, and compliance with Australian Standards. Committed to sustainability, DECO utilises lower-carbon aluminium and energy-efficient finishing processes to reduce environmental impact. All products are tested for non-combustibility and fire safety, making them ideal for bushfire-prone and high-performance builds.
