Trade Only Design Library (TODL), an interactive research database of 50,000 plus goods representing over 300 manufacturers, liberates design professionals from labor-intensive research by providing complete product specifications, including color images, dimensions, manufacturer information and options, in one convenient location. The homepage's left-side column displays residential, commercial, contract, hospitality, healthcare and specialty search parameters organized within separate product and manufacturer domains.

Once an advanced search is complete, thumbnail photos will appear complete with product number, price, manufacturer and finish descriptions. At this point, clicking on "Send to Favorites" transfers the image to a designated area for later collective viewing and comparing, perfect for a client presentation or design board. To obtain unlimited access to TODL's growing database, increasing by over fifteen manufacturers per month, online guests must be approved as trade professionals. To qualify for membership, which is free, simply fill out the application under "Register".
