The possible download options are:

ETIM UP Conversion tool

ETIM UP is a tool from Ketenstandaard Bouw en Techniek which can convert easily product data from an old to a newer version of ETIM. The tool is intended for manufacturers; the parties supplying the classified data. The tool takes a lot of work off your hands and ensures higher data quality. For more information and support, please contact ETIM at etimup@ketenstandaard.nl or visit the website of Ketenstandaard Bouw en Techniek.

Data Label

The score of the Data Label is based on ETIM Dynamic. As a result, the transition from ETIM 9 to ETIM 10 as the basic version has no direct consequences for the score of the various labels. We do, of course, recommend that the addition and completion of the ETIM classification of product data be given priority on the agenda. In this way, the industry is provided with the highest possible data quality and products can be found quickly and easily.
