eWarna and GretagMacbeth Sign Worldwide Reseller Agreement
With growing needs to ensure color accuracy in the textile and apparel industry, NetProfiler enables organisations to manage the quality of their supply chain's global network of spectrophotometers through a universal color measurement standard. Users can remotely test, measure, profile and monitor instruments of varying grades, optics, and manufacturers over the Internet instantly. By communicating the same virtual standards across the extended supply chains, users can improve instrument quality, uptime and reliability significantly while monitor the overall health of their color network.
"NetProfiler complements our LabWorks Pro and XMatch color collaboration solutions. It is a well-accepted principle in the industry that the best spectrophotometers experience drift and profiling is needed. NetProfiler solves this problem by removing instrumental drift as a variable in color measurement, making color communication more accurate and effective," said Richard Lawn, CEO of eWarna. "With GretagMacbeth's extensive experience and eWarna's advanced solutions that manage color critical processes, users can accurately monitor changes as information moves through the supply chain."
Ken Boyle, GretagMacbeth Executive Vice President, Sales added: "We're enthused to have eWarna as a partner in helping to provide an effective color measurement and communication solution to global supply chains. This is a major step towards eliminating the inherent color measurement variation throughout complex supply chains."
Both companies have been developing web-based color measurement and communications products to help industries improve lead times and go-to-market faster. "Our partnership illustrates eWarna's commitment to provide solutions that complement and extend our existing software's capabilities to offer enterprise-wide benefits" concluded Lawn.
