"The 3D Cloud Room Planner brings scale and simplicity to our visual content production workflow," said John White, CIO of Dorel Industries. "It will help us better support our retailers and partners by providing more efficient and tailored imagery faster than ever before."

Dorel's decision to implement the 3D Cloud Room Planner addresses current workflow challenges, offering a streamlined approach to internal processes. The tool allows Dorel's teams to create a wide range of lifestyle renders with significantly greater speed and flexibility compared to CGI, reducing costs and accelerating time to market.

The 3D Cloud Room Planner tool will be utilized internally to produce lifestyle imagery that aligns with the specific requirements of Dorel's stakeholders. Although the tool will not be available for public access, it will play a crucial role in meeting the needs of dealers and partners, ensuring that Dorel's visual content remains relevant and adaptable.

While Dorel has a vast catalog of products that they plan to add to their 3D Cloud Room Planner, the initial rollout of the new 3D Cloud workflow will focus on indoor furniture. This partnership is expected to provide Dorel with the necessary tools to scale their 3D visualization efforts, with potential benefits in content syndication and strengthened relationships with major retailers. Dorel plans to roll out the tools internally in the first half of 2025.

Dorel Home plans to continue to scale its 3D program with other 3D Cloud visualization tools such as AR and product renders. Brands that will benefit from these advancements include Ameriwood Home, DHP Furniture, Signature Sleep, Systembuild Evolution, CosmoLiving by Cosmopolitan, Novogratz, and Mr. Kate.

Dorel products can be found at major retailers in the United States and Canada. Retailers partnering with 3D Cloud will be able to subscribe to Dorel content for their own product imagery and 3D applications.

"3D Cloud has proven themselves as a leader in 3D solutions for the home furnishings industry, from their top-tier 3D Commerce Summit – the industry's leading educational program for retailers – to their unmatched expertise in 3D digital asset management and rendering," said White.

"Dorel is a leading manufacturer of home furnishings in North America. Their team has done their due diligence and are laser-focused on results. We're excited to partner with them on this important initiative," said Beck Besecker, CEO and Co-Founder of 3D Cloud.
