X-Rite Pantone Launches Offset360 to Modernize Color Control Across Existing Presses

11 June 2026: X-Rite Pantone, the global authority in color standards and color science, announced the launch of Offset360, a comprehensive color management solution designed to maximize the performance of existing production lines by modernizing offset pressroom color control. Offset360 brings together press-side scanning automation, QC and reporting software and automated ink presetting into a closed-loop workflow. This unified approach helps offset sheetfed printers reduce make-ready time and deliver precise color without the cost of investing in a new press.

“Many printers look to new presses to solve color or efficiency challenges, but the issue often lies in the scanning and control systems,” said Shajith Ambalathody, Application Engineer & Technical Specialist, X-Rite Pantone. “Disconnected workflows and manual adjustments can slow production, increase waste, and make it difficult to maintain consistent color across jobs and locations. Offset360 helps printers update existing offset presses with a connected, automated approach to color control while lowering upfront investment by up to 60% compared to piecing together multiple standalone solutions.”
