PolyPM is an ERP for the textile industry built for textile manufacturers who produce fabric for downstream apparel, sewn goods, and finished textile use. The platform manages fabric rolls, lab dips, color approvals, multi-location inventory, BOM and component data, quality control, and shipment coordination inside one system. It is textile ERP software designed for manufacturers who need accurate roll-level data, not just monthly reports.
Textile manufacturers operate inside long lead times, dye lot complexity, and downstream customers who shift specifications without notice. PolyPM gives textile manufacturers a single source of truth across fabric inventory, quality data, costing, and order fulfillment, so the production floor stops reconciling spreadsheets at the end of each shift. As textile manufacturing software, it ties product data, inventory, and execution together inside one platform instead of forcing teams to bridge five
Whether you produce fabric for apparel customers, manage greige and finished roll inventory, or coordinate quality data across multiple facilities, PolyPM supports the workflows textile manufacturers run every day.
PolyPM tracks raw material rolls and finished fabric with shade and width variations captured at the roll level, not aggregated in summary.
The full lab dip lifecycle, including digital approval and color certificate tracking, runs inside PolyPM. Textile manufacturers maintain shade consistency across customer orders without losing the approval trail.
Textile manufacturers running multiple warehouses or facilities can manage unlimited locations with bin and rack hierarchy, plus full transfer visibility between sites.
Configurable QA tests, digital inspection sheets, damage tracking with root cause categorization, and color certificate management run natively inside PolyPM, not as a separate quality system.
For textile manufacturers shipping ocean freight or working with downstream apparel customers, PolyPM manages the full container lifecycle from packing through delivery.
PolyPM customers move from version to version without rebuilding the system. Textile manufacturers preserve the configurations they have invested in, without enterprise-scale consulting bills.
Coordinate orders, inventory, production scheduling, and shipments inside an ERP for the textile industry designed for fabric and textile workflows.
Centralize style development, BOMs, measurement specs, lab dips, and color approvals inside a PLM environment built for textile and apparel manufacturers.
Track fabric rolls, components, and finished textile inventory with multi-location visibility and roll-level data accuracy.
Manage customer orders, allocation, pack and ship workflows, and multi-carrier shipping inside one ERP for the textile industry.
COO of Amoena
"With the assistance of Polygon’s support staff, we were able to deploy PolyPM in 8 weeks, including 2 weeks in which we were shut down over the holiday period. By January 2 we had all of our orders and a complete raw material inventory in the system. Four months later we reduced our order backlog to weeks rather than months and brought the management of our inventory totally under control."

"We trained on PolyPM and the implementation was professionally managed. Any problems were self-inflicted, but Polygon’s staff helped guide us around them and kept us moving in the direction toward a successful implementation. My team is very happy with PolyPM."

"With the assistance of Polygon’s support staff, we were able to deploy PolyPM in 8 weeks, including 2 weeks in which we were shut down over the holiday period. By January 2 we had all of our orders and a complete raw material inventory in the system. Four months later we reduced our order backlog to weeks rather than months and brought the management of our inventory totally under control. As a result, our customer service levels and fulfillment rates improved significantly. We’ve enjoyed the benefit of using many of PolyPM’s great features designed specifically for apparel makers. Over the years we’ve added Scan & Pack, EDI, shop floor tracking, sample development, cut planning, and production scheduling."
President of TexOps
PolyPM is a textile manufacturing software that manages roll-level fabric inventory, lab dip and color approvals, BOMs, multi-location stock, quality control, and order fulfillment inside one ERP for the textile industry. Textile manufacturers get a system that handles fabric the way it actually exists, as rolls with width and shade variations, not as countable boxed inventory the way generic ERPs treat it.
Yes. Raw material roll and lot tracking is a native feature. Each roll carries shade and width variations alongside lot and supplier data, all tied directly to inventory. Textile manufacturers see what is actually available, not what the system theoretically holds. Roll-level visibility is one of the structural differences that makes PolyPM real textile ERP software rather than generic inventory software.
Yes. PolyPM runs the full lab dip lifecycle with digital approval, plus color certificate management for customers who require apparel-specific shade approval tracking. Textile manufacturers maintain a complete approval trail across programs, so the right shade gets approved and the right certificate ships with the order.
Quality control is native, not bolted on. PolyPM supports configurable QA test definitions with pass/fail tracking, digital QA sheets and checklists, damage tracking with defect categorization and root cause, plus incoming inspection workflows tied to QA lots. Textile manufacturers run inspection inside the same ERP for the textile industry that manages inventory and orders, instead of toggling between systems.
Yes. Multi-location inventory is native, with unlimited locations, bin and rack hierarchy, and full transfer tracking between sites. Textile manufacturers managing multiple warehouses, facilities, or distribution points can coordinate inventory, quality records, and orders inside one ERP for the textile industry without reconciling across separate systems.
Yes. PolyPM runs PLM and ERP on a single database. Style development, component and BOM management, measurement specs, lab dips, and color approvals all share the same data backbone as inventory, costing, and order management. When a spec changes in development, it updates the rest of the system automatically. For textile manufacturers, this removes the daily reconciliation tax that comes with disconnected PLM and ERP tools.
Yes. As an ERP for the textile industry, PolyPM scales from smaller textile operations to enterprise-level manufacturers managing thousands of styles and multiple facilities. Customers move from version to version without rebuilding workflows, which protects the investment textile manufacturers have already made in configuring the system around their operation.
PolyPM was built for textile and apparel manufacturing from the start. Roll-level fabric tracking, lab dip workflow, color certificate management, multi-level BOMs, and quality control are core functions, not bolted-on modules. Generic platforms like NetSuite, SAP, and Oracle can be configured to approximate textile manufacturing, but they typically require heavy customization and full reimplementation every five to seven years. PolyPM customers upgrade version to version without reimplementation, redevelopment projects, or production downtime.
Yes. PolyPM includes pack and ship workflow with barcode verification, multi-carrier shipping integration (UPS, FedEx, USPS) with rate shopping, container lifecycle management for ocean freight, and country of origin tracking for export compliance. For textile manufacturers shipping to apparel customers across borders, this consolidates shipping and compliance inside one ERP for the textile industry.
Implementation is structured but flexible. Polygon’s team works with textile manufacturers to map the current workflow, prepare data for migration, configure the ERP for the textile industry against real operational needs, and roll out across the operation. After go-live, subscription-based support gives textile manufacturers access to specialists who understand both PolyPM and textile and apparel manufacturing. Discovery calls and demos are available in English and Spanish, which matters for textile manufacturers operating across North America and Latin America.
"The folks at Polygon have been crucial to the success of each implementation. They stay with the implementation until it is doing well and continue to support and enhance the system after implementation. Their knowledge of systems and manufacturing has been invaluable in helping us to become efficient and grow the company."
