Spektacolor - Description
Packaging print has traditionally relied on a wider range of spot colours than commercial printers would find profitable. This adds to production costs and demands extra time in make-ready on the press.

Screen is addressing this issue with its Spektacolor prepress technology, which will dramatically reduce or even eliminate the need for spot colours. It generates colour separations that can exploit the maximum gamut possible from extended-range process ink sets with eight colours. Because each implementation is tailored to the user’s own combination of process inks, paper and press, the maximum possible gamut, accuracy and repeatability can be achieved.

The technology is equally suited to flexo or litho print processes for flexible or folding packaging. On average about 85% of Pantone values can be matched, removing the need for most spot colour inks apart from fluorescents and metallics.
