## What is Materium?

What is it made of? Does it contain plastic, and can you recycle it? Snap a photo, and Materium tells you.

SCAN ANYTHING
Point your camera at packaging, clothes, gadgets, or everyday objects. Materium identifies the product and breaks it down into its materials, with estimated percentages for each.

THE PLASTIC CHECK
See whether a product contains plastic, where it is, and how sure we are. Materium also flags plastic you can't see, like the lining inside paper cups or the plastic in tea bags and blended fabrics.

RECYCLING ADVICE FOR WHERE YOU LIVE
Get guidance for your area: what curbside recycling usually accepts, what needs a recycling center or take-back program, and what belongs in the trash.

SHARPER RESULTS WITH CLOSE-UPS
Add a close-up of a label, care tag, or recycling symbol, and Materium reads it to give you a more accurate answer. If it isn't sure, it tells you what to photograph next.

AND MORE
• A sustainability score for every scan
• Your own material library that grows as you scan
• Share a result card with friends
• Designer View for makers and product designers: real patents from the European Patent Office and material data sheets

Your first 3 scans are free.

MATERIUM PREMIUM
Unlimited scans with a monthly or yearly subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

Results are AI estimates from your photos, not lab tests. Always check your local recycling rules.
