Fabric Trend Index17,983 products · 179 brands

State of the measured catalog

The fabric averages across everything we score, and how they've moved across our dated captures (Apr 30 → Jun 6). Read the time series directionally — much of the movement reflects our catalog growing (7,873→17,983 products), not brands reformulating.

03Movers

Brands whose measured catalog shifted most between their first and latest capture (≥10 products). Re-scrapes change which products we hold, so read these as coverage shifts, not confirmed reformulations.

How this is computed

Aggregated from dated catalog snapshots (4 capture points, Apr 30 → Jun 6 2026); industry figures are product-count-weighted across 179 brands.
Catalog evolution, not market trend: each product is counted from when we first scraped it, so earlier captures cover fewer products. Movement reflects our growing dataset as much as any real shift.
Scores are computed by FabricIQ from composition labels — see how we score. New captures accrue as the daily snapshot job runs.
