Printing & Packaging - Business Case
Nine brand color libraries. Nine versions of the truth.
Company A converts flexible packaging and labels for a roster of consumer brand customers across several press lines. Every brand's color spec arrived a different way — PDFs, draw-downs, email attachments — and different plants sometimes worked from different versions of the same standard.
The challenge
One brand, several 'current' standards.
Press operators judged color match largely by eye against a printed proof, and out-of-tolerance runs were often only caught after a customer complaint.
- Brand specs scattered across PDFs and inboxes
- Color match judged by eye against a proof
- Drift caught only after a customer complaint
- Different plants working from different versions
The solution
One verified color standard, everywhere it's needed.
Ametra centralized every brand's specification, however it originally arrived, into one verified digital record.
Custom-built
Every client's specification, PDF, or draw-down consolidated into one verified digital record per brand and substrate.
AI-assisted
Drift detection flags a run trending out of tolerance before it finishes, and documents the deviation automatically.
Connected
Press operators get an on-press pass/fail check; brand and account managers get a live dashboard across every job and plant.
The results
What changed on press and in the account team.
The shifts that mattered most to brand consistency.
-
Fewer reprints Reprints and color complaints dropped as drift is caught on-press, not after delivery.
-
Faster job approval Approval moved faster because everyone worked from the same verified standard.
-
Consistency across plants Brand consistency held across plants and shifts instead of drifting between them.
