What is a centralized material library for footwear and apparel?

A centralized material library for footwear and apparel is one shared source where every material, from leather, mesh and knits to trims and soles, is stored once with its measured color, PBR textures and master data. In DMIx 3D Library, brands, designers and suppliers work from the same color-managed assets: scanned with DMIx SamplR or Vizoo xTex, previewed in V-Ray and delivered into CLO3D, Browzwear and Style3D, PLM and e-commerce.

How to choose a material library platform: 7 criteria →

What 3D Library makes possible.

Assets from any source in one library

Existing inventories arrive via bulk upload, new materials come straight from the physical sample through DMIx SamplR or Vizoo xTex. No matter the source, everything lands in the same validated library and is then available inside CLO3D, Browzwear and Style3D as well.

Color-managed V-Ray previews and a real-time 3D viewer

Every asset automatically gets a color-managed V-Ray preview in production quality, reviewable in the real-time 3D viewer in the browser. Selection, approval and sales use happen without special software and without manual rendering.

Automatic scaling and indexing

Textures are scaled to the size of the physical sample, assets are indexed by color and master data. Teams filter by hue, material, supplier and season, instead of searching by filename.

Organization in folders, collections and multi-object scenes

Folders, collections and multi-object/texture scenes mirror real ranges, capsules and setups. What's stored once as a scene gets reused, instead of being rebuilt every time.

Sharing via viewer, Company Connect and API

Assets can be shared with specific users, groups and suppliers connected via Company Connect. Via API, the same data flows into PLM, PIM, DAM and e-commerce, in variable formats and with an audit trail.

ScanorUpload

Scan or upload

Scan materials straight from the physical sample with DMIx SamplR or Vizoo xTex, or import existing inventories via bulk upload.

Assets from every source, one validated library.

Whether scanner or hardware partner, every path lands in the same color-managed library. Content is validated on import, indexed and enriched with master data.

Bulk upload

Thousands of textures, materials and 3D objects in one go with automatic validation.

DMIx SamplR

Textures from the scanner flow directly into the library, color-managed, with no intermediate step.

Vizoo xTex

Support for Vizoo xTex hardware, calibrated material scans as native input.

Module bridge

3D Library + SamplR

The SamplR scanner sits in the sample room, not in a 3D studio. Anyone can scan, no 3D expertise required. PBR textures, behavior videos and master data land color-managed in the 3D Library, with no intermediate step.

Instead of physical sample rounds between brand, supplier and studio, you get a verified asset within minutes, ready for renders, CAD and sales use.

From scan to render in true color.

Every step in the library is color-accurate, from physical sample to finished V-Ray image. The digital material looks like the real one, in design, sales and e-commerce.

Consistency across online, showroom and print

Sales imagery and inspection without specialist software.

Every texture and every scene has a V-Ray preview and a real-time 3D viewer in the browser. Sales, buying and partners inspect materials, rotate, zoom and compare variants, without ever opening a 3D tool.

One material, validated once. Usable everywhere.

Data that sorts itself.

On import every texture is automatically scaled to the physical size of the sample and indexed by color, material and master data. Search and filter replace folder archaeology.

Without the library

·Search by file name
·Manual scaling in Photoshop
·Wrong tiling in renders
·No filter by color or material
·Duplicate assets in every folder

With the library

·Automatic scaling to physical size
·Automatic color and master-data indexing
·Filter by material, supplier, season, compliance
·Full-text and attribute search
·One asset, many referenced uses

From single asset to story.

Folders, collections and complete scenes with multiple objects and textures, all reusable. Built once, deployed in many contexts.

Folders

Classic structure for teams, seasons or suppliers, with rights and audit.

Collections

Curated sets for capsules, pitches, reviews, independent of physical storage location.

Multi-object scenes

Complete outfits, configurator stages, material setups, as reusable 3D scene.

Sharing, Company Connect, API

Where your assets need to land.

Assets reach users, groups and connected companies through Company Connect, under control. Through the partnerships with CLO3D, Browzwear and Style3D, materials land straight inside the designers' 3D CAD tools. Variable downloads for different tools, with rights and audit log. Through the API, assets flow on into PLM, PIM, DAM, configurators, AR and e-commerce.

7 criteria for choosing a material library platform.

Storage, search and access rights are table stakes. The article covers what decides whether a material library still holds up in its third season: measured color, one standard, orderable materials, 3D, supplier access, PLM and an exit path.
