Plastpol 2025 May 20 - 23, 2025

Join X-Rite Pantone at Plastpol 2025 where we will be showcasing our industry-leading color measurement solutions for specification and design, formulation, production, and quality control on a variety of plastic applications.

Ensure Color Harmony Throughout All Aspects of your Plastics Workflow

As the urgency of climate change grows, the global plastic market faces increasing pressure to minimize its environmental impact.

With over 60 years of innovation and proven expertise in color control, X-Rite solutions formulate and control color on even the most complex materials to ensure color harmony throughout all aspects of a plastics workflow.

Whether you work with plastic pellets, extruded plastic, uniquely shaped bottles, transparent or translucent preforms or plaques, or materials with optical brightening agents, X-Rite solutions can help you:

• Specify using physical and digital color standards.
• Formulate using software that yields better matches in fewer steps and with fewer corrections, enabling you to reuse wasted material during formulation.
• Measure using benchtop and portable spectrophotometers that capture color on transparent, translucent, reflective, textured, and optically brightened surfaces.
• Control using QC software to minimize waste across a global supply chain.

Join us at Plastpol 2025 to witness firsthand how our innovative technologies can help you streamline processes, reduce waste, work faster and more efficiently, and formulate with leftover or recycled materials.

Featured Solutions for Specification & Design:

• PANTORA™ appearance software streamlines design workflows by providing industrial designers and suppliers with a solution to quickly and accurately create a digital twin of a physical material for 3D rendering, and then communicate the material data without shipping physical prototypes.
• AxF provides a standardized format for material appearance data. Used in design, development, and marketing, it helps brands reduce cycle time, control costs, and ensure color consistency.
• PantoneLIVE Production - Plastic, Coatings and Textile libraries, is a cloud-based system that enables digital specification and communication of Pantone standards across the global supply chain.

Featured Solutions for Plastic Packaging:

• eXact 2 Xp offers all features available on eXact 2, plus the ability to measure CMYK and spot colors on flexible films, plastics, foil with white opaque, and other unique substrates.

Featured Solutions for Formulation:

• Color iMatch formulation software optimizes match performance, streamlines formulation attempts, and enhances productivity through automation.
• Ci7860 benchtop spectrophotometer helps formulators quickly and efficiently meet color trends and achieve customer specifications by capturing the most precise color data.
• MetaVue VS3200 employs digital on-screen targeting and adjustable aperture sizes to capture accurate measurements on a wide range of plastic samples, including curved and small pieces like cords, buttons, and caps.
• NetProfiler software verifies all devices are calibrated and optimized for color measurement to guarantee all devices are delivering the same measurement data, reducing inconsistencies across devices and ensuring color matching confidence.

Featured Solutions for Production:

• ERX130 Inline measurement spectrophotometer offers contactless measurement with a large spot size, providing consistent color readings on textured, patterned, and glossy samples.
• Ci7800 benchtop spectrophotometer ensures precise and efficient inspection of incoming raw pellets, accommodating various sample sizes and shapes with reflectance and transmission measurement capabilities.

Featured solution for Color Evaluation:

• Judge LED Light Booth^NEW!: fast, reliable color evaluation with 7 customizable light sources, stable chromaticity, and convenient accessories.

Featured Solutions for Quality Control:

• Ci64 handheld spectrophotometer provides high-end quality control solutions suitable for lab, field, and manufacturing plant environments.
• Color iQC software offers comprehensive quality control monitoring from specification to assembly, automating color control processes at every stage.
• MA-5 QC multi-angle spectrophotometer accurately evaluates metallic colors, and special effect finishes with five standard measurement angles.
• MA-T12 uses twelve angles of measurement and color imaging which enables full and complete characterization and detailed visualization of today’s effect and complex materials.
• MetaVue VS3200 is a non-contact imaging spectrophotometer that uses digital on-screen targeting and aperture sizes ranging from 2mm to 12mm. It can capture precise measurements on a variety of difficult-to-measure plastic samples, even curved and tiny pieces like cords, buttons, and caps.
