QuadTech and ColorConsulting agree formal partnership to combine color expertise

The agreement will leverage the two companies’ understanding of pre-press and pressroom workflows, and is intended to enhance printers’ efficiency by automating the exchange of color data within those workflows.

ColorConsulting’s knowledge and understanding of the entire print workflow has already been instrumental in the development of QuadTech’s Color Quality Solution, which enables automatic sharing and processing of color data between in-line color control and off-line color measurement industry leaders. The system assures color quality and consistency from your defined color targets through on-press ink formulation recipe changes, and ongoing color measurement during the press run.

‘QuadTech is smart enough to recognize the importance and power of combined expertise,’ Carlo Carnelli, owner of ColorConsulting, said. ‘ColorConsulting considered and approached multiple manufacturers, and found QuadTech to have the best technology and the deepest level of expertise. This is a perfect fit that will bring printers more than just equipment on press. Today more than ever, printers are seeking solutions, help and expertise.’

QuadTech president Karl Fritchen added: ‘We’ve had a very fruitful collaboration relationship with ColorConsulting for some time now. We chose ColorConsulting because of its extensive color knowledge and valuable experience.

‘This formal partnership agreement comes at an opportune time for packaging printers, who are looking for new ways to increase print quality, reduce waste and increase profitability. Developed around our combined color expertise, QuadTech already has a robust portfolio of products designed to get them there. Gearing up for drupa 2016, we’re very excited to bring options that don’t currently exist to the packaging and converting markets.’
