Concept III Launches Fabric Library Online

Red Bank, N.J.- based textile resource and garment production service Concept III Textiles has opened an online fabric library on its Web site.

The library will house current Fall ’06 production fabrics, as well as Spring ’07 fabrics as they are developed.

Concept III provides development, sourcing and garment production services for branded manufacturers and private-label retailers. The company’s customers will be able to search the fabric database by construction, fiber and weight, as well as by technical and visual features. Information found in the database can be printed or saved as a PDF file either on the customer’s own computer system or in a private, password-protected area of the Concept III site.

Concept III’s library was developed with TEXbase, a Montana-based software company founded by former Patagonia product development executive Joe Walkuski. —Alison A. Nieder
