ISO Scale

ISO Scale: Standard for Consistent Print Quality

The ISO scale is a globally recognised standard for colour reproduction and print quality. Established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), this scale helps ensure uniform and high-quality printing results. Following these standards guarantees consistent and colour-accurate printed products.

ISO standards cover various aspects of the printing process, such as colour management, print resolution and tolerances. Companies in the printing industry use these guidelines to ensure their products meet the highest quality requirements. The ISO scale is a key tool for top-quality printing.

Importance of the ISO Scale in Printing

• Colour consistency: Ensures uniform colours across different print jobs and machines.
• Quality assurance: Minimises deviations and quality issues.
• International standard: Recognised and applied worldwide, simplifying collaboration and print processes.
