Color Charts Reimagined: Hesse Lignal Relies on LANAREPRO’s Innovative Production Technology

When it comes to premium color charts and fan decks for demanding applications, every detail matters – from color accuracy to surface quality and cost-effectiveness. For Hesse Lignal, a leading manufacturer of wood coatings and oils, Lanarepro has now realized a special project: the production of new color charts for oil-based finishes on wood – all within a completely new digital workflow.

What makes these color charts so special? They consist of four pages and were produced using a process developed by Lanarepro that sets new industry standards. The key innovation: a special scanning technique captures textured wood surfaces with striking realism – including grain, structure, and light reflections. The result is not only visually stunning but also convincingly realistic to the touch.

The scanned data is translated through a precise printing process to produce color charts that are nearly indistinguishable from real wood samples – both in color and material feel. The result is a product that confidently stands up to comparison with original stained samples – while offering numerous additional advantages.

Added Value Across the Board: Durable, Flexible, and Cost-Effective

The benefits for customers are manifold. Thanks to high lightfastness and durable materials, these color charts can be used for years. The flexible layout also opens up entirely new possibilities: whether small print runs or customized versions – anything is possible without compromising quality.

One standout advantage is cost-efficiency: compared to traditional production using real wood samples, the costs are significantly lower – while maintaining the same high-quality look and functionality.

With this innovative solution, Lanarepro once again demonstrates its strength as a partner for premium, cost-effective printing solutions – showing how modern technology and long-standing expertise can go hand in hand.
