Archroma Atlas
Archroma, a global leader in specialty chemicals, has launched portable versions of its renowned Color Atlas by Archroma® color catalogue, aimed at streamlining workflows in the textile and fashion industries. These new editions, Mini Flex and Mini Palette, offer a convenient and efficient solution for color comparison on the go, in the office, factory, or at home.
The Mini Flex and Mini Palette editions are compact and user-friendly, overcoming the bulkiness of traditional physical color libraries. They provide designers with a reliable tool for accurate color selection and comparison without the limitations of digital displays.
Both editions contain 5,760 unique colors, including 4,320 cotton colors and 1,440 polyester colors. These colors are also available as Engineered Color Standards from Archroma, providing precise dyeing recipes, eco-compliance information, and technical support.
Chris Hipps, Global Director of Archroma Color Management, highlighted the innovation’s significance: “Our Color Atlas has inspired creativity, enhanced communication, and helped ensure color accuracy since its launch in 2016. As new ways of working digitally and physically along with the demand for speed reshapes the fashion and textile industry, we continue to innovate to support brands, designers, and mills to work faster and smarter together, wherever they are.”
