ABOUT OpenICEcat
The OpenICEcat project is a unique open catalogue project in co-operation with manufacturers and channel partners, directed at creating a worldwide free product catalogue. The open catalogue is available in xml format or url format.
- URL-format = links to datasheets and to product images. Easy-to-use in any ERP or webshop. Example datasheet. Download the technical URL documentation.
- XML-format = all data per product in an easy format for developers.
These brands are included in the free open catalogue section. Download the technical ICEcat XML-documentation.
