Applied Receives Innovate Alabama Grant

Innovate Alabama awarded Applied a grant to further the development of new material for polymer films used in space.

The Innovate Alabama grant allows Applied to capitalize on the material development results from their Phase II SBIR and enhance their manufacturing capabilities in North Alabama. The new material has already shown impressive results, proving major improvements to polymer films that are used in space for thermal control, deployable antennae, solar arrays, and other applications.

“We are incredibly thankful for the Innovate Alabama Grant. This grant will be used to accelerate and continue the growth of our advanced materials product line. This funding will allow us to focus on improving our materials offerings and developing the infrastructure needed to continue and accelerate this growth,” said Jim Moore with Applied.
