Fabric Digitization

Your fabrics, scanned once. Rendered everywhere.

We turn a physical swatch into a photoreal PBR material: colour, weave, sheen and pile, measured, not guessed. Every render, configurator and 360 across your catalog then uses the exact same fabric.

Why it matters

A wrong fabric is a returned sofa.

The swatch in the buyer's hand and the render on your product page have to match. When the digital fabric is eyeballed from a photo, the colour drifts, the weave flattens, and the piece that arrives is not the piece they chose.

We scan the real material and calibrate it against a reference chart, so the render is the fabric. One measured source feeds visuals, configurator and print alike.

fabrics scanned for one bed brand

MyBed's range at launch, around 550 today. Every one measured against a reference chart, so the render is the fabric.

How it works

Four steps from swatch to catalog.

Scan the real swatch.

Colour, weave geometry, roughness and sheen captured from the physical material under controlled light, not sampled from a photo.

Calibrate against a reference.

Every scan is measured against a colour chart, so what renders matches what ships, on any screen and in print.

Publish as one PBR material.

The fabric becomes a single addressable material in Content Hub, ready for renders, 360s and the live configurator.

Sync and retire automatically.

Discontinue a weave and its material retires everywhere at once. Your visuals never drift from the fabrics you actually sell.

One source

Every surface uses the same fabric.

The digitized material feeds Variant Visuals, the Modular Configurator and 360 sets from one record. No per-channel re-tinting, no mismatches between the studio shot and the live build.

✓Photoreal under any light rig
✓Identical across web, print and configurator
✓Versioned, so a re-scan updates every page

Measured

The colour you scan is the colour they get.

Reference-calibrated capture keeps the digital fabric locked to the physical one, so returns from colour surprise drop and the product page earns trust instead of spending it.

✓Chart-calibrated colour accuracy
✓True weave and pile, not a flat texture
✓Works from a single mailed swatch

Refined

When the supplied textures fall short, we rebuild the material.

Sometimes the job is refinement rather than scanning. Fargotex Golden came with the manufacturer's own textures, and they were not good enough for a close look, so we rebuilt the chenille as one physically accurate material and derived every colourway from it. Pick a colour and an angle.

✓Pile and sheen rebuilt as one material
✓Eight colourways derived from it, three angles each
✓Drops into the same render pipeline as a scanned fabric

Photography flattens a weave and a phone camera lies about colour. A buyer who cannot trust the fabric on screen will not buy it, or worse, will send it back.

If the swatch and the screen disagree, the screen loses the sale.

What you get

A fabric library your whole catalog can trust.

1

One measured source of truth.

Every fabric lives once, calibrated, and every render reads it. No folder of look-alike textures to keep in sync.

2

Colour that survives the journey.

From your screen to their screen to the printed catalog, the fabric holds, because it is measured, not adjusted by eye.

3

New lines live in days.

Mail us the swatches; the calibrated materials come back ready for renders, configurator and 360, no photoshoot.

4

Print and web from one file.

The same material drives web-fast renders and print-grade campaign shots, so nothing drifts between channels.

5

Retire without residue.

Discontinue a weave and it disappears from every page automatically. Your catalog can never show a fabric you no longer sell.

6

Start with one collection.

You do not need to digitize everything at once. Begin with your bestsellers and grow the library as you go.

From the blog

Send us a swatch. See it rendered.

Mail us one fabric collection and we will digitize a sample and show it on a real render, so you can judge the match before you commit.
