SwatchEditor: The Digital Thread for Smarter Trade.
A next-generation way to visualise textile patterns
and digital garment and accessory assets in real-time 3D.
SwatchEditor is the vital bridge, linking designers, essential software applications, and project stakeholders. We empower you to work smarter, faster, and more inclusively across the supply chain.
Why Digitise Now?
Future-Proof Your Business: EU legislation (DPP/ESPR) demands digital readiness.
Digitisation is no longer a luxury; it's a necessity. New EU legislation like the Digital Product Passport (DPP) and Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) requires transparent, digital workflows.
SwatchEditor offers a versatile bridging tool that brings together outputs from specialised software into one collaborative online library. This allows everyone involved in the garment lifecycle—from artists, designers and managers to buyers and sellers—to view, visualise, and share ideas efficiently at their leisure, regardless of expertise. By making your library and archives instantly accessible, SwatchEditor also helps you recycle old designs, foster innovation, and drive a more sustainable future.
Future-proof your business today. Leverage SwatchEditor to support regulatory compliance, drive sustainability, and save costs.

A Personal Appeal to Our Community: Help Us Unlock SwatchEditor's True Potential
Hello, I am the founder of SwatchEditor, and I'm reaching out to you personally.
I started SwatchEditor with a simple vision: to trade through Covid and to streamline the confusing and often disconnected garment design process. With new EU legislation like the Digital Product Passport (DPP) and Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), the need for a seamless, digital workflow is more urgent than ever.
We need your help to bridge this gap.
While SwatchEditor is already a valuable tool, it hasn't reached its full potential yet. Your donation will directly support essential development work and the addition of crucial new features.
With your contribution, we can accelerate development and build a comprehensive platform that truly promotes sustainability and innovation across the entire garment lifecycle. You will be helping artists, designers, buyers, and sellers around the world collaborate more efficiently. It will help us employ and train more staff with new tech.
Will you invest in the future of sustainable design today and help us bring this vision to life?
Thank you for believing in our mission.
