This opens up <strong>a wide variety of options for applications<\/strong> that involve heating, for example for packaging ready meals, pet food or baby food. The technology is also ideal for finishing flexible films for high-quality, fast-moving consumer goods, such as coffee, tea or confectionery, because it can also incorporate metallic colors, like gold or silver, as well as coatings for texture and other finishes. The process is also suitable for imprinting Digimarc digital watermarks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Primary focus \u2013 sustainability <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using SPQ can significantly reduce the carbon footprint of package printing. This is due in particular <strong>to the reduction of the standard color palette from ten to just seven colors<\/strong>, which decreases both ink and solvent consumption. <em>\u201cWith SPQ, we significantly reduce ink consumption, ink waste and the number of color changes. Even though the color palette is reduced to seven colors, <strong>it is still possible to realize virtually the entire color spectrum as well as additional metallic colors<\/strong> \u2013 all while maintaining superior print quality similar that of a photo as well as excellent color brilliance,\u201d<\/em> highlighted <strong>Enrico Riesel, Senior Site Director at S\u00dcDPACK Bioggio (CH)<\/strong>. In-house calculations performed by S\u00dcDPACK have shown that limiting the palette to seven colors leads to a savings of approximately 36.5% in a typical standard process for a print order for 15 thousand running meters.<\/p>\n<p>Additional factors in terms of sustainability include <strong>lower energy consumption and the reduction of film waste<\/strong> that would have usually been produced during the changeover on printing machines for the next print order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greater efficiency with real added value for customers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>S\u00dcDPACK customers benefit most particularly from the reduced amount of effort required in the pre-press stage. Using a strictly defined color space eliminates not only constant color adjustments, but also complex and costly on-site print approval. An additional advantage is that different print designs can be combined in one print order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Impressive print quality and color brilliance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, the new technology stands out due to its <strong>high register accuracy as well as its outstanding color consistency and color brilliance.<\/strong> This is thanks to consistent, smart color management along the process chain, which, as Enrico Riesel confirmed, \u201ccompletely reinterpreted and reconceptualized the project from the very beginning\u201d. Realistically speaking, the standardized color palette can create approximately 95% of all Pantone colors \u2013 and does so with stable, reproducible color conversion. As a result, SPQ completely eliminates all of the adjustments that had been necessary for conventional printing processes too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SPQ technology
