Why Color Inconsistency is a Deal-Breaker for B2B Buyers
Scenario | Color Variation Impact | Business Consequence |
Unified Retail Renovation | Slight differences across batches | Brand inconsistency |
Hotel Project Installations | Color temperature drift in murals | Downgrade or rejection |
Designer-Specified Reorders | Reorder doesn't match original lot | Project delays, reputation damage |
Why Traditional Wallpaper Factories Struggle with Color Consistency
1. Unstable Production Environment — Humidity, temperature, and ink variability impact results.
2. No Automated Calibration System — Manual visual matching is subjective and error-prone.
3. Poor Data Tracking — Print parameters, ICC profiles, and ink ratios are not systematically archived.
