Cartotecnica Veneta S.p.A, of San Pietro, Italy, is simplifying color preparation and improving print quality on its gravure printing line with QuadTech’s new Color Quality Solution, and attracting new business in the process.

QuadTech’s ‘industry first’ integrated Color Quality Solution relays in-line spectral data gathered by QuadTech's SpectralCam to ink formulation software from X-Rite and ink technology from Huber Group to ensure a consistent color measurement standard from the brand owner’s request to last printed image. The system installation was managed by QuadTech’s agent, ColorConsulting, S.r.L, and supported by the QuadTech team from the United States.

Cartotecnica produces finished and semi-finished flexible packaging and folding cartons primarily for large Italian and European food and beverage brands including Ferrero, Nestlé Italy and Unilever.  

The QuadTech Color Measurement System with SpectralCam is positioned after the last printing unit on Cartotecnica’s gravure line.
