====== Materials Catalog Api ======

Retrieve the up to date list of materials and their properties by sending a request to the url below. 

As response, you will be able to download a structured file with the available materials and get extra information such as:

- Preview Images for Materials and Finishes

- Diffuse Color, Ambient Color, Specular Color and Shininess values for correct visualization (rendering) in 3D-viewer etc.

You are free to use that info on your own site.

The API is public, you just need to specify your registered email address at the end of the **request**:
