Colour Management
Consistent Colour Keeping Packaging on Brand
The need for consistent quality of printed products is essential to our customer base and to us as your partner. Delga prides itself on providing this quality and ensuring that our packaging and printing customers are always immensely satisfied with their products.
To assist in the delivery of this statement, Delga has installed a closed-loop colour management system to its array of multi-colour presses.
Colour consistency is often a huge part of a brand identity. We know this is the case for Wash with Leaf. When we first started talking to Wash with Leaf, they were in the early stages of their journey, and they wanted to ensure that there was minimal colour variation in their packaging.
You can read more about this in the Wash with Leaf case study linked below.
Our investment enables us to provide CIP3 data online to the press control, pre-setting the ink keys and compensating for differing materials. This means that any operator commences a make-ready from a consistent platform. Our inline control automatically measures and controls colour on the fly and at speed.
As the system is fully integrated into the machine, the spectrophotometer measures the colour and forwards any corrections automatically to the press console for adjustment. The press does not need to be stopped to make the adjustments ensuring maximum productivity and consistency.
The result of this is that Delga can produce quality colour print and packaging, confident that every sheet will be as good as the last.
