ColorPRO Technology

The benefits of ColorPRO Technology are real and revolutionary. ColorPRO Technology is based on the use of a set of paper enhancement technologies that visibly improve the print quality of inkjet printing compared to standard uncoated offset and untreated bond papers. ColorPRO Technology represents a quality standard for color excellence in digital printing, based on meeting a strict set of quality specifications, verified by The Rochester Institute of TechnologyPrinting Applications Laboratory, the independent third-party testing agency chosen to ensure and validate compliance with these specifications.

How's it work?

ColorPRO papers use additives that interact with pigment inks. These additives treat the paper to provide precise control over ink behavior at the paper surface. As the ink penetrates the paper, the colorant is immobilized at the surface, producing prints with higher contrast black, more striking colors, sharper lines, and finer detail. The specific interaction between the pigment inks and papers with ColorPRO Technology makes it possible to achieve professional quality and striking results.

Driving the digital transformation

ColorPRO Technology enables the transformation to digital printing for commercial and industrial printing applications. By incorporating ColorPRO papers into their product lines, companies supporting the standard can offer their customers papers that deliver a compelling value proposition with clearly differentiated performance, that keeps pace with advancements in printing technology found in digital printing systems. ColorPRO Technology is intended to be part of a broad range of paper types (including wood free, thermomechanical pulp/TMP, and hybrid) and paper grades.
