Why colour consistency across formats is hard
A brand red printed on a coated sheet, on backlit film and on dye sublimation fabric goes through three completely different colourant systems, three substrate whites and three ink-absorption behaviours. Print them at three suppliers and they will not match. We colour-manage across our sheet fed, UV and dye sublimation output against shared Pantone references, profiling each substrate rather than trusting a generic setting. On multi-format campaigns we produce proofs side by side so the client approves the set as a group instead of approving each piece in isolation and discovering the mismatch on site.
