Talking colour management for Digital Textile printing with Simon Landau of PrintFactory
.png?width=750)
Colour management and a digitised print workflow are the bedrock of sustainable production, and yet both are so often underused, ignored completely or misunderstood. In this podcast we discuss colour management, print process and best practice for the Textile Industry as it switches to a digital future with Simon Landau of PrintFactory, a specialist print software solution company.
When correctly utilised colour management software enables efficient print-on-demand, and in all cases saves time, reduces operational costs, defines and eliminates waste, and increases profits. Beginning with Colour management we discuss the Textile Industry as it flexes to blend analogue production into the digital sphere. Across the globe the same production issues arise, in large or small volumes, but one thing is for sure – without best practice alongside and the adoption of digital technologies we will not improve our industries sustainability objectives.
