Kayell brings Barbieri Electronic to ANZ

Italy-based colour measurement and management manufacturer, Barbieri Electronic, appoints Kayell as its exclusive distributor for the ANZ region.

Offering both spectrophotometers and software tools for ICC profile creation, Barbieri products also support most of the Rips used in the digital imaging industry. The company has a close strategic partnership in the UV wide-format sector, with GMG Color – another of Kayell Australia’s colour management product lines.

“We are delighted that Barbieri has chosen Kayell Australia as its distributor for the ANZ area,” said Kayell’s managing director, Robert Gatto (pictured). “With digital imaging’s capability to print onto virtually any material, the need for accurate colour management is greater than ever. Only the Barbierei Spectro LFP has proven itself in the profiling of tricky substrates such as wood, glass, stone, metals, ceramics and textiles which are used increasingly on flatbed and roll-to-roll UV-curing wide format machines.”

Barbieri’s range includes the Spectro LFP - now in its third generation; the automatic chart reading Spectro Swing, Profile- XPert ICC profiling software plus speciality spectrophotometers for the textile and cine industries.

“What sets Barbieri Electronic LFP spectrophotometers apart is the ability to change the apertures to suit the substrate being measured, the multi-angle lighting which helps eliminate diffraction and the Polarising filter option for shiny surfaces and UV inks,” said Gatto. “The Spectro Swing model will measure any colour chart automatically and is ideal for linearising multiple wide-format printers.”
