Use of BMEcat in companies

The exchange format is based on XML technology and enables the standardized exchange of catalog data and product classification systems. These include eCl@ss, ETIM (incl. proficl@ss) or UNSPSC. You only have to enter your data once and can then use it in any system that supports BMEcat. This saves you time, reduces errors and makes it easier to manage and market your products. The exchange format is widely used in German-speaking countries and is published by the BME.

You can use the exchange format to record all types of product data that you need for an online store, for example:

  • Product descriptions
  • Prices
  • Product groups/classifications
  • Images
  • Documents
  • URLs
  • Technical specifications

In addition, entire structural systems such as classifications or product group systems can also be transferred in the exchange format. Find out more about the exchange format and how companies can standardize and distribute their product master data with entitys.

Create a BMEcat catalog yourself

To create a BMEcat, you need a few tools and professional software. Basically, it is an XML format. As with HTML, for example, you could simply open “Notepad” and start writing down the XML code. But this is of course extremely time-consuming and error-prone. This is why many people use PIM software to create a BMEcat.
