How Rutherford helps
Concrete outcomes for real offset production environments.
Rutherford supports offset teams with color management, press-side workflow, and production standardization, focused on what moves the press, not buzzwords.
Stable color across runs
Standardized calibration, ink models, and closed-loop correction that keep deliveries consistent from one job to the next.
Lower makeready waste
Fewer sheets, less ink, and shorter setup cycles thanks to predictable target-hitting and tighter press control.
Better workflow control
Clearer press-side decisions, connected measurement data, and structured hand-off between operators and management.
Production standardization
Repeatable processes across presses, shifts, and sites, so brand owners and converters can trust what ships.
The software
ColorLoop for offset printing
Built from Rutherford’s closed-loop experience, ColorLoop helps offset teams reduce setup time, improve color consistency, and connect production data more clearly across the workflow.
Faster makeready
Reach target color sooner with AI guided setup and correction workflows.
Lower waste
Reduce paper, ink, and unnecessary reruns through better setup consistency.
Better repeatability
Use stable production data to improve performance from one job to the next.
Connected visibility
Bring measurements, quality data, and production insights into one clearer operational layer.
