X-Rite Incorporated and Pantone LLC will demonstrate how brands, dye houses and textile manufacturers can approve and produce colours quickly with little waste to support sustainability goals.
X-Rite will highlight the benefits of digital colour workflows for textile manufacturers. The solution will help manufacturers streamline colour development, create digital material twins, efficiently formulate dyes, and improve overall colour quality throughout the production supply chain of dyeing, finishing and assembly partners. This results in minimised waste, reduced rework, and establishes a more sustainable workflow.
‘As the textile industry transitions to sustainable practices, a great place to start making changes is within the colour workflow,’ said Matthew Adby, Product Management Director, X-Rite. ‘At the X-Rite booth, ITMA attendees will learn how moving to a digital colour workflow makes it easier to approve and produce colours quickly, accurately, and with little waste, water and energy consumption.’
X-Rite will display colour measurement solutions for every stage of the design to textile production process:
Design and specification: visitors can learn which X-Rite spectrophotometer is best for their textile or digital printing application and how to digitally communicate colour and appearance characteristics between designers, brands, dye houses and OEMs.
X-Rite PANTORA™ software empowers brands and textile suppliers to digitally visualise colour and appearance characteristics to expedite product development and reduce oversampling.
Color iMatch advanced formulation software enables dye houses to optimise initial colour matches, reuse leftover materials, and reduce wasteful formulation attempts. X-Rite colour measurement solutions can capture spectral data on a variety of textile materials, including patterns, textures, performance fabrics, accessories, and other hard-to-measure samples.
The i1Pro 3 Plus can assure print quality on a wide variety of textile materials used by digital wide format and industrial printers for dye sublimation, direct-to-fabric, and roll-to-roll fabric. X-Rite will showcase cutting-edge colour measurement and 3D visualisation solutions that facilitate a sustainable textile workflow at ITMA, June 8-14, in Milan, Italy.
