How can I convert my GLB file to SKP?

Click the upload area, select your GLB file and choose SKP. SKP files are made on our server, so you need a free FurniMesh account and your file is uploaded for the conversion (up to 25 MB). When the conversion has finished, download your SKP file right away.

How long does it take to convert my GLB to SKP?

Most GLB to SKP conversions complete in a few seconds for typical furniture-model files (a few MB; uploads up to 50 MB). The pipeline runs in your browser for most format pairs — no upload to a server, no roundtrip latency. For SKP, BLEND and FBX outputs the conversion runs server-side via the native Blender or SketchUp engine, with a hard 5-minute timeout per conversion; most server-side conversions finish in well under a minute.

What does the GLB to SKP conversion preserve?

Materials, UV maps, vertex normals, and scene hierarchy are preserved wherever the SKP format supports them. STL is the exception — it is a geometry-only format by design and discards materials and UVs. GLB and GLTF preserve embedded textures inside the file; OBJ produces an accompanying MTL material descriptor; SKP groups components logically with materials applied; BLEND preserves the full Blender scene graph with modifiers.

How does converting GLB to SKP work?

In order to successfully convert a GLB formatted file to the SKP format, our converter tools will perform several initial checks to ensure the file provided is indeed a GLB file. There are many files out there where the file type extension does not match the data contained within the file. Along with these file type checks, our tools will do additional checks to ensure the file is correctly formatted to match the provided file type.

What if I don't have a GLB file to convert yet?

Browse the FurniMesh 3D furniture library — every model exports natively to SKP (visit https://furnimesh.com/library/format/skp/ for the SKP catalog). Or generate a custom 3D model from any furniture photo with the Image to 3D AI generator at https://furnimesh.com/image-to-3d/ — output formats include SKP natively.

To convert GLB to SKP, upload your GLB file and download the SKP — free with a FurniMesh account, no watermark. SKP files are made on our server, so your file is uploaded for the conversion (up to 25 MB); each export uses 1 credit (new accounts get 50). Because SKP stores geometry, materials and textures but not animation, animation, rigging and vertex colors are dropped.

Detailed information about the source and target file formats, including their capabilities and specifications.

GLB Format

Extension:GLB

Full Name:Binary glTF

Type:3D Model

Mime Type:model/gltf-binary

Format:Binary

Opens With:Blender, MeshLab

GLB (GL Transmission Format Binary): A binary file format (.glb) for 3D scenes and models, based on glTF. It's compact, includes textures and animations, and is optimized for web and real-time applications.

GLB Converter Capabilities

When converting 3D model or mesh files using our GLB converter, we will attempt to convert color materials into a suitable format for use in the converted file.

SKP Format

Extension:SKP

Full Name:SketchUp

Type:3D Model

Mime Type:application/vnd.sketchup.skp

Format:Binary

Opens With:SketchUp

SKP (SketchUp): A proprietary file format (.skp) used by Trimble SketchUp for 3D modeling. It stores 3D geometry, materials, textures, and scenes. Widely used in architecture, interior design, and construction for creating detailed 3D models and presentations.

About the GLB to SKP converter

FurniMesh's GLB to SKP converter runs on our conversion server (your file is uploaded for the conversion), backed by the native Blender / SketchUp engines. Conversions complete within a 5-minute hard timeout per request; most furniture files finish in well under a minute. Materials, UV maps, and scene hierarchy are preserved wherever the SKP format supports them. It's free with a FurniMesh account, with no watermark; server conversions accept files up to 25 MB.

FurniMesh natively outputs four formats — GLB, OBJ, SKP (SketchUp 2017+), and BLEND (Blender 3.0+). Bridge conversion via this converter additionally produces FBX, STL, GLTF, 3DM (Rhino), PLY and OFF, and reads IFC, DAE, 3DS and 3MF files. Use the converter to bridge between supported formats — or skip the conversion step entirely if you don't have a source file yet (the FurniMesh library ships every model in all four native formats pre-rendered).
