What to Look for in a 3D Configurator
The UK furniture market is on track to grow from £22bn to £26bn by 2030, and the retailers capturing that growth are the ones giving shoppers real control over what they buy.
This guide breaks down what to look for in a 3D configurator vendor:
- The distinction between 3D product configurators and 3D modular configurators, and which suits your catalogue
- Must-have capabilities: no-code editing, mobile/desktop compatibility, vendor consolidation, and PIM/DAM/ERP integrations
- How DFS, Sofology, John Lewis & Partners, and Herman Miller use configuration to scale customisation across channels
- The research behind the shift: 3 in 4 shoppers want AR/VR interaction, 70% shop primarily from smartphones, and 80% say 3D visualisation builds their confidence to buy
Use it to build a shortlist, apply the scorecard, and choose a vendor ready for a market that's only getting bigger.
