In the world of label and flexible packaging printing, BOBST has introduced a game-changing innovation that redefines the standards of efficiency and quality. Enter oneECG, BOBST’s extended colour gamut technology, seamlessly integrated into BOBST narrow and mid-web portfolio of printing presses. This groundbreaking technology has a far-reaching impact on the industry, offering substantial benefits for converters and reaffirming the role of BOBST as a pioneer in the field.
What is oneECG?
oneECG is a testament to BOBST’s commitment to innovation and sustainability. This extended colour gamut technology is designed to fully digitalise and automate colour management for labels, flexible packaging, folding cartons and corrugated board. By employing a fixed set of inks, which includes CMYK with the option to add orange, green, and violet, oneECG achieves a significantly broader colour gamut compared to traditional printing methods. This translates to enhanced time-to-market, print quality, cost reduction, and sustainability.
BOBST oneECG ensures consistent colour and repeatability, regardless of the individual operator’s skills and experience. In contrast, traditional methods often require ink mixing in a dedicated ink kitchen to match Pantone or spot colours, meaning the accuracy of these colours depends heavily on the operator’s proficiency and expertise.
oneECG builds colour directly on press from the fixed ink set, typically using just two to three inks, for a reliable and uniform outcome every time. This approach allows printers to replicate up to 95% of the Pantone book with seven colours, depending on the substrate. The result? Substantial cost savings, reduced material usage, and faster delivery times – all contributing to a more sustainable and competitive production process.
