Résumé : |
In-house tinting and mixing, so much a feature of DIY retail outlets, also has a place in the factory as the author explains.
Tinting systems in Europe and the United States have long gained a place in many paint manufacturers' minds. Especially at Point-of-Sale, tinting systems have become a standard. Their current lower penetration in other parts of the world is rapidly catching up.
Tinting systems created a clear win-win situation for Point-of-Sale, by serving both the consumers' wishes for instant 'colour on demand' and the shop owner's need for lower stock and increased profitability.
In-plat tinting systems however, are still not very commonly used. Maybe it is time for paint munufacturers - decorative and industrial - to reconsider their way of thinking about in-plant tinting?
Manufacturer's face a dilemma between efficiently producing colour and serving customer demands adequately. There are areas of tension between conventional colour making and today's technical possibilities. An integrated business solution for this dilemma includes special in-plant colourants, software to support the production method selection process. Additionally, new advanced production methods are introduced. Manufacturers can now tailor each individual order in their colouring process, keeping in mind customer's wishes and their own profitability. |
