This followed X-Rite's March 15 communication detailing the CiF3200 spectrophotometer, designed to accurately measure complex materials that traditional spectrophotometers have struggled with due to their size, decoration, texture, or complexity. Earlier, on March 11, X-Rite highlighted challenges in hitting offset lithographic color targets, noting how manual color bar measurement and ink key adjustments lead to time consumption, operator error, and material waste. On March 4, X-Rite announced its participation in Eurocoat 2026 in Paris from March 24-26, where it would present its latest technologies for color formulation and quality control specific to the paints and coatings industry.
