GMG Color is
teaming up with leading innovative technology company Epson and specialist
packaging design graphics studio Studio404 at Packaging Innovations (stand
GB3). On the stand,
colour management software experts GMG will show the importance and benefits of
managing colour from packaging and label concept all the way through to the
finished product – every time, anywhere, on any material, and by any printing
process.
Using the
latest technology to produce innovative and colour consistent artwork, GMG will
demonstrate GMG ColorProof, the industry leading proofing solution, with Epson
Stylus Pro WT7900 large format printer producing contract-level proofs for
complex packaging applications. The 24-inch Epson printer uses CMYK + white ink
to deliver highly accurate package proofs and is ideally suited to the GMG
ColorProof software which offers precise and predictable spot colour
simulation.
Alongside,
Studio404 will be demonstrating its unique streamlined workflow process which
takes creative packaging design concepts and turns them into engineered
solutions that are ready to be printed – all enabled by GMG technology.
GMG OpenColor
has been a vital technological breakthrough for Studio404, enabling the company
to measure colours spectrally, rather than taking traditional colour
measurements. Brand owners have very high colour accuracy expectations, no
matter where something is printed, and GMG OpenColor is designed to address
this complex and error prone problem in package production.
“Packaging
Innovations presents GMG with the perfect opportunity to show the importance
and benefits of managing colour from concept to creation, onto supermarket
shelves and into the consumers’ homes,” says Toby Burnett, MD, GMG Color.
“Teaming up with Epson and Studio404 enables us to demonstrate to prepress
specialists, print firms, agencies, and brand owners how they can produce
consistently better colour simulations, across different substrates and print
technologies, and reduce time and costs during the production process.”
