Most building product manufacturers have a specification problem they don’t know about yet. If an architect can’t easily drop your product into their Archicad model, they will use a competitor’s product instead. CADSwift creates lightweight, data-accurate, native GDL objects, giving you a branded library your customers can download, place, and specify directly from your website.
Digital adoption in construction demands content that is accurate, detailed, and easy to use. CADSwift delivers standardized BIM content that mirrors physical products, reduces specification errors, and supports compliance. With automation, consistent outputs, and parametric precision, manufacturers can ensure architects trust and specify their products more often.
CADSwift equips manufacturers to deliver consistent, ready-to-use BIM content that speeds up adoption, strengthens collaboration, and drives product visibility—ensuring your solutions stand out across every project.
When an architect opens Archicad to specify a tapware range, a facade panel, or a plumbing fixture, they work from what is already in their project library. If your product isn’t there as a ready-to-use BIM object, the decision gets made without you.
Most manufacturers find out about this problem too late. By the time a sales rep is involved, the specification was locked into the 3D model weeks earlier. The architects working right now are either using a competitor’s object in place of yours, or they’re modeling something generic. Neither outcome helps your brand.
CADSwift delivers a fully branded, parametric GDL library containing your entire product catalogue.
Your customers download it directly from your website, install it into Archicad, and your products become part of their standard workflow.
This isn’t a converted Revit file. It isn’t a heavy 3D mesh from an overseas CAD factory.
It’s native GDL, built from the ground up for Archicad.
Architects won’t delete your library because it’s slowing down their model.
Precise dimensions, product codes, and specification data are locked into every object at the point of development.
Fixtures and fittings snap precisely to connection points, ensuring schedules populate automatically and accurately.
For plumbing, electrical, and facade products, dimensional accuracy in the BIM model is not a “nice-to-have”, it is a project risk. A tapware outlet placed 40mm from its correct rough-in position creates a defect that gets picked up on-site, not on-screen.
When CADSwift builds a manufacturer’s object, the product’s real-world installation tolerances, connection points, and clearances are built directly into the code. What the architect places in the model is exactly what the contractor installs on site.
A complete, installable Archicad library containing your product range, ready to host on your website as a free download for architects.
Every object carries your product codes, dimensions, finish options, and specification attributes. When an architect schedules your product, the exact data your sales and estimating teams need comes out of the model automatically.
Your products can be integrated into CADSwift’s live product catalogue, giving thousands of architects direct access to your range inside Archicad.
From leading architecture firms to innovative product manufacturers,
we provide intelligent Archicad solutions that power projects across industries and continents.
CADSwift developed a complete parametric GDL library for Abey's tapware and sink range, giving Archicad users access to accurate, data-rich objects they can specify directly from the model.
While some products require 3D geometry, others require exact visual and data representation. CADSwift engineered precise material attributes for Dulux, allowing architects to seamlessly apply, render, and schedule authentic paint finishes directly within their Archicad environment.
For Weathertex, we built an intelligent facade and wall accessories tool. Instead of manually modeling exterior finishes, architects can simply select a wall and instantly apply Weathertex cladding in full 3D, complete with accurate material attributes and surfaces.

Find answers to common questions about CADSwift’s Archicad object libraries, BIM tools, licensing, and support.
Most manufacturer BIM files are either Revit exports or heavy 3D meshes. Large file sizes cause project lag, and non-native formats behave unpredictably in Archicad. GDL is Archicad’s native scripting language. Our objects are lightweight, accurate, and behave exactly like the built-in library, meaning architects actually keep and use them.
You host the library on your own website as a branded download. We can also integrate your products into the CADSwift catalogue for additional reach within the Archicad community.
You do. The finished GDL objects are delivered to you for permanent use and hosting. There are no ongoing licensing fees for your library.
We can work from product datasheets, DWG/DXF drawings, and product photography. Dimensional drawings with connection point and rough-in data are the most useful, particularly for plumbing and electrical products.
A single product object typically takes 3–5 business days. Full catalogue ranges are scoped on a per-project basis. We’ll give you a clear timeline and fixed price before work begins.
