Solutions to Visualize Complex Color & Appearance Data

Go beyond color to capture the full material appearance during the design phase.

Featured Products:

  • PANTORA helps designers quickly and accurately visualize how different materials will look on their prototypes. It creates digital materials that closely mimic real ones, showing realistic textures, colors, and finishes to efficiently test various materials without physical samples.
  • The MetaVue VS3200 is a non-contact, imaging spectrophotometer to measure textile samples with patterns and textures. Offering live video, this instrument delivers precise digital targeting to quickly and easily select the exact target area for measurement.
  • The MA-T 12 multi-angle spectrophotometer is ideal for measuring extreme effect finishes. Featuring an RGB camera and white light illumination (A, C, D50, D65, F2, F7, F11 & F1) and inter-instrument agreement of 0.18 ΔE2000 avg. on BCRA, these devices measure color, sparkle and coarseness with greater repeatability and reproducibility to identify and reduce defects.

Solutions to Digitally Specify & Approve Color

Increase compliance, control, and consistency with objective color specification, resulting in faster time to market with less waste.

Featured Products:

  • Textile Color Hub is an open cloud-based ecosystem to securely pass color data back and forth using a secure file format. With this solution, brands can communicate spectral data for brand colors along with embedded tolerances and illuminants requirements so suppliers can formulate with confidence and digitally submit the best match for approval.
  • The Ci7860 sphere benchtop spectrophotometer delivers 25% tighter specifications than any other industrial instrument, making it ideal for standard creation. Built-in temperature and humidity sensors ensure the environment is suitable, and embedded NetProfiler status lights verify the device is optimized for each measurement.
  • PantoneLIVE Private Library Manager extends the power of PantoneLIVE to custom, private, and brand colors with the ability to digitalize, store, and share private and custom colors with the supply chain.

Solutions to Visually Evaluate Color on Assembled Products

Although digital color is the future of textile specification and production, visual evaluation is still a crucial component for ensuring accurate and consistent color from design to store.

  • The NEW Judge LED light booth speeds up and standardizes color evaluations across the supply chain with its instant warm-up, stabilized illuminants, and seven light sources, including LED D50 and D65. Plus, directional daylight allows for surface inspection to detect defects across different materials.
