INX Color Perfection
Brand and color management program for beverage can design and decorating
With the help of INX Color Perfection®—including the Color Catalog, digitized color library, digital proofing, and key educational tools—INX International can help you streamline and standardize your can design process.
INX Color Catalog
The INX 2-Piece Metal Color Catalog is the industry's first true color standard printed directly on metal. Brand owners, designers, and metal decorators can select, communicate, and approve color efficiently, reducing lead times—getting labels to market quicker. The proprietary INX numbering system includes over 600 removable metal color swatches and access to the same INX colors via the INX Digital Color Library available in Adobe® design programs.
Digital Color Library
The INX Digital Color Library gives designers and prepress teams access to the INX 2-Piece Metal Color Catalog colors for use during the design phase. The INX Digital Color Library is a plugin preset which permits INX colors to be used within Adobe® design programs that use the Adobe Standard Exchange color swatch system (.ase). Once you register your catalog, you will have access to download a copy of the INX Digital Color Library located in the catalog support area.
INX Color Perfection Magazine
INX Color Perfection Magazine published by INX, is a free resource for brand owners, graphic designers, and metal decorators, that examines the connection between color, design, and metal can decorating. The magazine features our proven Color Perfection methods that streamline the design-to-market process which result in accurate, reproducible, and consistent color.
Digital Proofing
Whether using direct-to-object proofing with the INX CP800 or can-wrap proofs with the Roland® VersaCAMM VSi Series, graphic designers and printing professionals have the ability to produce a single digital print or dozens for promotional purposes—or even hundreds—for events and market evaluation. Using the INX Digital Color Library users get accurate, reproducible, and consistent color matching.
