Leverage your web page to gain customers with simple and cost effective recipe formulation for dye sets. In three simple steps, XDyes generates the five best recipes for comparison within a set of tolerance parameters. It even includes a cost calculator.

Using the conventional Kubelka-Munk Method for recipe formulation, XDyes allows webpage visitors to formulate the best recipe over the internet instantly. The program calculates all possible dye combination based on the selected dyes of the manufacturer’s product range and attachment to get recipes with the least color difference to the selected Target color. Five best recipes within the tolerance parameters based on the selected Target Color, Process and Illuminates will be shown for comparison.

Target Color Input For Recipe Formulation (8 Methods)

This allows users to select a Pantone color from the color palettes (11 to 19 from pale to dark.)

Pantone Cotton by name

This allows users select the Pantone reference number from the dropdown box to receive the exact target color.

Pantone Paper by Name

This allows users to select the Pantone reference number form the dropdown box to retrieve the exact target color.
