3D design software was originally developed in the mid 80's for in-house
use by Cadmatic's mother company, Elomatic Ltd, to take advantage of 3D technology
in improving the design, visualization, distribution and total cost
efficiency of projects.
The development project for a 3D plant design program was started in 1983
and by 1985 the first pilot project using the new 3D technology was completed.
Improvements in design and overall efficiency were remarkable and as such it was
decided to found Cadmatic Ltd in the early 90's with the responsibility of marketing and
further developing the 3D software.
It was at this time that Cadmatic also started its co-operation with
Dutch partners Numeriek Centrum Groningen B.V. to develop comprehensive
3D design solutions for ship design under the Nupas-Cadmatic name while
continuing with plant design software development under the original Cadmatic name.
The software soon became a popular choice and Cadmatic's growth has been impressive since
the early days with more than 4500 licenses sold in 42 countries up to date.
The company aims to continue its strong growth in the future by providing cost
efficient and innovative design solutions to its growing base of international customers.
