Portfolio optimisation

Skanem portfolio optimisation service helps you to reduce complexity in label design at an early stage so that the label portfolio becomes more cost-effective. We optimise the following to achieve a faster and smoother printing process

Colour optimisation:

We work with you to reduce the colour template to either CMYK or a fixed 8-colour template. The benefits are reduced setup time, reduced cost, optimised print process, effective prepress and artwork management.

Minimising variants:

When the label portfolio includes multiple design elements and label sizes, it might be possible to standardise some of them, thereby reducing the number of variants needed. We will create alternatives for you to compare and approve.
