ABOUT US

Rizom-Lab is the worldwide used UV mapping software Unfold3D® author’s company.

Since its creation in 2003 by Remi Arquier, Unfold3D was one of the first commercial software capable of automatically flattening 3D mesh geometries as the same time as preventing from stretching and distortion. Then, it rapidly found its place in the computer graphic industry while being adopted by many freelancers and major studios out there. Also, its core algorithms are now integrated in standard into ®Autodesk ®Maya.

Today, following the path towards an ideal tool set capable of segmenting, flattening and packing UVs without any manual intervention, Rizom-Lab focuses on enhancing our technology, and making it available to 3D artists and product designers within our new standalones applications RizomUV Virtual Spaces and RizomUV Real Space, and in a form that can be integrated into others 3D editing softwares or pipelines within our RizomUV C++ Library.

Rizom-Lab has been created in 2016, and now sells RizomUV new software. As you may have noticed, we carefully listened to all your remarks and needs while designing our license model.

Notice on 2017 october 30

01 June 2018: Since the publication of that notice, Unfold3D by Rizom-Lab has been renamed to RizomUV to stop the confusion created by the double use of the Unfold3D brand.

Dear all,

We received some messages of concern today, and we would like to reassure you about Rizom Lab.

Rizom-Lab publishes Unfold3D v10 Virtual Spaces and Unfold3D v10 Real Space software, as well as its Unfold3D C++ Library. Older versions, from the v3 to v8, were published by Polygonal Design since 2004. And the same company still publish the v9 currently.

End of 2015, Rémi Arquier, owner of Rizom-Lab, also Unfold3D’s creator and developer, stopped his business relations with Polygonal Design. A legal procedure has been initiated to act ownership considerations on the software source code. Then, on 2017 September 28, the first legal instance of the TGI in Marseille concluded that Polygonal Design doesn’t have any rights on Unfold3D software in its version 10. Consequently Rémi Arquier remains the exclusive owner on Unfold3D software rights in its version 10, and is entitled to distribute and license Unfold 3D software through Rizom-Lab.

Rémi Arquier is also the owner of the Unfold3D brand which has been firstly registered on 2004 by the Unfold3D creator Rémi Arquier, and in November 2015. Unfold3D brand has never been transferred to Polygonal Design.

We, at Rizom-Lab, are feeling concerned about the confusion that may be created by the situation. Business relations are sometimes complicated and we feel truly sorry that you are involved in this dispute. Our lawyers took required remedies to stop any untruthful communication. We hope that people like you will demonstrate their understanding. We are currently focusing all of our energy on Unfold3D development and are happy to have received all of your super positive feedback on our new Software version.

Sincerely,

The Rizom-Lab Team.

Testimonials

RizomUV is indeed an impressive piece of software! Not only in the fundamental tools provided miles ahead of any alternatives, but the support provided is also absolutely outstanding. In my opinion, the real strength that RizomUV has to offer is the robust scripting API, which allows me to build a highly efficient workflow around the software.
Erik Sutton - Technical Artist at Fantastic, Yes

The UI is clean and intuitive. I became proficient in RizomUV in about a week, while it took me months to learn other packages. I’ve recommended RizomUV to all my friends.
Unwrapping UVs used to be tedious. Now I look forward to do it because it became fun to do, thanks to RizomUV.
My experience with their customer support has been top notch.Samuel Moreno - 3D Artist, Costa Rica

3D unwrapping can be a tedious and cumbersome process but thanks to RizomUV I actually started to enjoy it. The tool is intuitive to learn, powerful to use and comprehensive as a UV unwrapping toolkit.Paul McGovern - South West College

I hate UV’s – Not longer the case! RizomUV made unwrapping fun. It’s something I can look forward to now.Béla Csampai - Freelance

RizomUV has completely overhauled my workflow and made UV unwrapping to not be the chore that it was previously. Close developer interaction with the community also means frequent, meaningful updates for things you may have requested yourself. I can’t imagine a product I would rather use for UV unwrapping.Ian McDonell - Freelance

Must have tool in any game artist’ toolbox. Saved me tons of time during a game production. Rich hotkey customizability makes it more like an extension for your main 3D content creation tool, rather than yet another software to get used to.Vladimir Leleiva, 3D Artist at Nordcurrent

RizomUV VS made me not have to ever worry about UVs again! The Blender bridge makes it in many cases a one-click to perfect production quality solution.
Also A Class customer service and support!”Péter Józsa Jr. (freelance 3d artist, indie videogame developer)

After using this for a day I think it’s pretty obvious that Rizom Lab is the next big thing. Doing UV’s in RizomUV has become an instant must.Tyler Matthew Harris

Just three days into the RizomUV trial and I’m sold! This tool is a must have for anyone spending serious amounts of time with UV mapping.
The fact the developer listen to my feedback and requests makes me confident about their dedication and future support.Ola Haldor Solvik Voll - Qvisten Animation

I am impressed, it would seem you have thought to everything.Olivier Gaudreau - Chainawesomegames

I’ve always struggled with UV unwrapping and I gotta say this is by far the best program I’ve used to date so far. It’s straight forward and I’m really getting used to it.Ron Marshall

Been using it since the beta started, definitely a time saver!Eric Jeffery

This software is perfect for photogrammetry users. Absolutely the best.Ingemar Lundgren

[…] I just want to say that overall it’s very, very intuitive and easy to use.Chris DeThample

I’ve been in the video game business for about 28 years now […] I’ve been a Max user since around 1995, and I started using [Competitor] in 2005. I just discovered RizomUV Virtual Spaces this week and am really blown away by how good it is. I set the limit very high but [Competitor] just couldn’t load the model. RizomUV (the beta) loaded everything without a problem, and I pack all of my shells without an issue.Dan Burke

Today was my first day using RizomUV VS, and I have to say that it is absolutely incredible! Thank you so much for creating such powerful software as it really saved me a tonne of work this afternoon.Shane Berezowski
