PANTONE Validated is a business-to-business licencing programme that enables colour hardware manufacturers to incorporate their capability to simulate Pantone colours in their products.
Designed to acknowledge colour fidelity in representing and reproducing the Pantone Matching System (PMS), the programme is ideal for a broad array of manufacturers of colour devices used throughout the design workflow where colour is critical, including: various colour printers and digital front-ends from large format systems to industrial inkjet, 3D printers with full colour capability, stand-alone professional colour displays, laptop and all-in-one desktop computer displays, tablet/mobile devices and digital advertising displays.
‘Colour is a critical element of any design and ensuring the quality of visualisation and eventual reproduction of the colours within a design can be particularly frustrating for designers working between digital design programmes and the final outputs,’ said Iain Pike, director of partner business development for Pantone. ‘Working with colour print systems and notebook and display manufacturers to confirm that their products are Pantone Validated provides their user base with affirmed colour tools that they can use more confidently in their everyday work with Pantone Colours.’
