Textile Colour Management - How it all began
Instrumental Colour Measurement
Instrumental Colour Measurement
Instrumental Colour Measurement using a spectrophotometer is nothing new. The early 1980’s saw the introduction of ‘colours by numbers’- i.e. spectral data by a leading UK retailer. This system over the years has proven to be very successful indeed and is ideal for almost all solid colours. A few retailers or brands also operate ‘self-approval’ systems based purely on pass/fail tolerances. Many would agree that this reduces lead-times which greatly improve the speed to market. However this requires careful control, often headed up by a central colour team ensuring necessary compliance and integrity of all the partners, through standardised systems, training and auditing.
More complex colour product, i.e. prints, graphics, checks, stripes, denim and multi-colour fabrics require a different approach. Traditional Spectrophotometers cannot measure these types of fabrics very well, and at best they provide only an ‘average’ reading of the colour and sample a small area only.
New camera based systems can image samples in accurate colour, provide colour calibrated images with colour measurement capability and importantly allows images to be communicated to other people ‘electronically’.
DigiEye is such a system, which images colour in context along with its fabric structure. The DigiEye ‘sees’ exactly in the same way as the human eye would, this is really important as everything a brand or retailer does is checked by the eye of the buyers and eventually the customer.

Time to move away from traditional Colour Management
In a fast moving and competitive market, there has never been a more important time to maximise the time & resource spent on the colour approval process. Some people may see the colour management process as an un-necessary expense. It’s actually about getting a consistent process in place to ensure product conformance and working with partners and supply chain to improve lead times and the avoidance of adverse costs associated with rejected or late production leading to loss of sales. A well-managed colour approval process should become cost neutral.
