Product Data Available Anytime, Anywhere: DME Offers onPrem Catalog Powered by CADENAS

DME has been using the CADENAS online digital catalog for over 20 years. In June 2025, the company also began offering its customers a new offline solution: the onPrem catalog powered by CADENAS.

DME Company Europe B.V. is a global supplier for the plastic injection molding, metal stamping and die casting industries. The company offers a broad range of parts to build and maintain injection molds and dies. For over 80 years, DME has been a trusted partner for mold makers and molders, providing both standard and customized solutions.

No Internet? No Problem: CAD Data Always Available

“Feedback from our customers showed that some are not always connected to the internet or are restricted from using it at work,” said Adam Schneeberger, European Marketing Manager at DME. To address this, DME has implemented the onPrem (on-premises) CAD catalog from CADENAS. The catalog works entirely offline, ensuring a consistent workflow and intuitive user experience. 

DME regularly maintains and updates its catalog of standard products, which is synchronized across all CADENAS platforms. Users can download components directly using predefined export formats. The catalog is available in both metric and imperial units, making it suitable for customers and colleagues across Europe, Asia and the USA.

The onPrem catalog provides full access to the complete DME product portfolio.

For DME, the offline catalog is the ideal complement to the online version. “The tool is invaluable for our sales team, allowing them to leave a USB stick with our complete library at the customer’s site or to guide them on how to download data from the cloud. It helps us strengthen customer relationships by providing reliable access to our resources, regardless of internet connectivity,” Schneeberger said.

Benefits of the onPrem Catalog

CADENAS has offered an offline catalog for several years, but it has recently been redesigned to provide an even more intuitive user experience. “We see the biggest benefit as a significantly more modern and user-friendly customer interface, with an improved look and feel. The application now supports more native and neutral formats, enhancing usability,” Schneeberger explained.

The customized DME onPrem catalog, tailored to the customer’s design guidelines.

The onPrem catalog can be customized to match corporate design guidelines. It exclusively displays the DME product portfolio without competing products or alternative suggestions from other manufacturers, allowing customers to focus entirely on DME’s solutions. The offline catalog benefits DME’s Sales, Engineering, Customer Service and Marketing teams. It serves as a valuable source of leads and opens a new channel for customer engagement. By offering a flexible and fully offline solution, the onPrem catalog helps DME strengthen its market position and deliver added value to both customers and internal teams.
