Print What You Actually Designed

Most packaging prints darker, duller, and less accurate than the design file. That's not a calibration issue — it's a structural limitation of standard 4-color CMYK printing. Sinso solves this at the press level.

Sinso runs 7-color ECG (Expanded Color Gamut) printing — CMYK plus Orange, Green, and Violet ink channels — as its base process. Measured across recent production runs: approximately 80% of Pantone within ΔE 2.5, independently validated by CTV ECG certification. For work where color is load-bearing, it's the structural fix. For commodity print, standard CMYK is sufficient.
