Here's Tapestry's implementation of GridDataSource for Collections: https://github.com/apache/tapestry-5/blob/trunk/tapestry-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tapestry5/internal/grid/CollectionGridDataSource.java
That implementation works with any class, but you can write a special one that works with just Material instances. In your implementation of the prepare method<https://github.com/apache/tapestry-5/blob/trunk/tapestry-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tapestry5/internal/grid/CollectionGridDataSource.java#L44>, you can do whatever special sorting you want to do, based on your Material instance and anything else you'd like to consult. You can also create a new one-off class just for the rows of your Grid--a class that wraps a Material, ValorAtributo, and Atributo tuple, for example. You'll probably need to create a complex Comparator that wraps the one based on the PropertyConduits associated with incoming SortConstraints--it depends on whether you want to augment the existing sorts that available or replace them completely. If you do need a complex ordering, Google's Guava library has an Ordering class as well as ComparisonChain both of which are well-suited for rich Comparators.
