Creating Strict Color Standards

Our team is comprised of a collective of colorists and chemists like no other. Our focus and core offering is simple, develop the most vibrant and deep colors at a .75de or below on a wide variety of textiles. 

The Delta e Group was designed from the ground up to develop and match colors, meeting the strictest tolerances in the industry.  A great colorist understands the complex process of lab dip service, spectral measurements, quadrant direction, saturation, conditioning, and hue.

We understand that in a world of global manufacturing precise consistency in color throughout the supply chain is critical. Even the most slightest variation in color can have a massive impact resulting in missed deadlines or missed seasons, negatively affecting bottom lines and brand recognition. 

Our color matching process is a convergence of the most advanced color measurement instruments and software in the market, with the most seasoned colorists in the industry. Every color is developed by adhering to a stringent set of processes and procedures, throughout the entire process multi-tiered quality control is paramount. 

Our Datacolor spectrophotometer can be used to easily transfer qtx. data files to customers and their supply chain partners upon request.  

Step 1. Review any qtx. data that is available for the color. If no qtx data is available for the desired color, the physical color standard will be measured using our Datacolor spectrophotometer to obtain qtx data.

Step 2. A recipe will be created using the Datacolor spectrophotometer to predict the best combination of dyes that are the least metameric.

Step 3. Communicate the dye recipe to our dye team through our proprietary software and technology.

Step 4. Measure samples throughout the dye process to ensure the color match is within the customer de. tolerance, and in the correct quadrants.

Step 5. Submit physical color strips to customer to measure on their spectrophotometer right left and center.
