MTRL Library has announced the launch of its new DSCVRY Box, a curated sample box designed to help architects, interior designers, specifiers and fabricators discover innovative sustainable materials more efficiently.
Bringing together a range of forward-thinking material brands in a single package, the DSCVRY Box aims to solve a common challenge faced by design professionals: sourcing and comparing material samples from multiple suppliers. Instead of placing separate sample requests with individual manufacturers, users can access a carefully selected collection of sustainable materials through one streamlined process.
The box showcases materials from some of the most exciting names in sustainable surface design, including recycled plastics, bio-based composites, recycled solid surfaces, cork materials, natural surfaces and innovative waste-derived products. Each sample has been selected to help designers explore new possibilities for commercial, hospitality, retail and residential projects.
Designed for Modern Material Discovery
The DSCVRY Box is ideal for:
- Architects researching sustainable specification options
- Interior designers seeking unique material finishes
- Specifiers looking to compare materials side by side
- Fabricators exploring new products for client projects
- Design studios building a future-focused material library
By bringing multiple brands and material categories together, the DSCVRY Box helps professionals discover products they may not have otherwise encountered while supporting more informed specification decisions.
Why Choose a Sample Box Instead of Ordering Individual Samples?
For many designers, the traditional sampling process can be time-consuming. Ordering individual samples often means dealing with multiple suppliers, separate deliveries, inconsistent lead times and excessive packaging.
The DSCVRY Box offers a more efficient alternative by consolidating material discovery into a single delivery. This not only saves time but also allows materials to be compared in the same environment, making it easier to evaluate aesthetics, texture, colour and suitability for a project.
Benefits include:
- One order instead of multiple supplier requests
- A curated selection of sustainable materials
- Reduced packaging and delivery waste
- Faster material comparison and evaluation
- Exposure to innovative brands and emerging materials
- Convenient addition to any design studio material library
Supporting Better Material Choices
As sustainability becomes a key consideration across the built environment, access to innovative materials is increasingly important. The DSCVRY Box has been developed to make sustainable material discovery more accessible, helping designers and specifiers explore circular, recycled and low-impact alternatives without the complexity of managing multiple sample requests.
For design professionals looking to stay ahead of material trends and build more sustainable projects, the DSCVRY Box offers a practical new way to discover, compare and specify the next generation of materials.
