Alwan and consulting distributor Color Management Group are partnering to offer color solutions and consulting expertise to printing and packaging providers in the U.S. and Canada. The agreement making CMG the exclusive distributor of Alwan software products in North America went into effect January 1, 2024.
CMG’s extensive education, analysis and system integration resources are developed and executed by the company’s exclusive group of consultants; known individually for their color expertise across the full range of print and packaging production environments.
Alwan has continuously provided the industry with up-to-date, bespoke color management and process control for all print and packaging production applications and environments. In 2024, Alwan is focused on new and faster features to support color management and process control for G7®, ISO, and increasingly, multicolor (ECG) customer environments.
Lida Jalali Marschke, founder and owner of the Color Management Group, says, “We’re thrilled to work with Elie and his team as CMG becomes the new master distributor for Alwan in North America. I have always admired what Elie has accomplished, and I am confident that our combined experiences will benefit the industry.”
Alwan founder and CEO Elie Khoury, regarded as one of the world’s foremost color engineers, is equally enthusiastic. “CMG has an A-list of consultants; experts who understand where Alwan products will serve providers best,” he says. “They have been asking for access to the Alwan product line, and now, with CMG as our distributor, they have it. Our customers are in good hands.”
