Materialbank

Material Bank is an e-commerce marketplace that lets architecture and design professionals search and order free material samples from thousands of design and architectural product brands, delivered overnight in a single box. Founded by Adam Sandow, the platform consolidates supplier sample catalogs into one searchable storefront (built on Adobe Commerce) with free next-day sample fulfillment. Material Bank does not publish a public developer API program: the consumer storefront runs a standard Adobe Commerce GraphQL endpoint at /graphql (introspection disabled) and an api.materialbank.com host that is not publicly documented.

Materialbank is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Ecommerce, Marketplace, Architecture, and Design.

Materialbank’s developer surface includes signup flow, support, and 5 more developer resources.
