WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A G7 MASTER

G7 Master Qualification is granted to a physical facility. G7 Master Status indicates that the facility has calibrated certain equipment and systems to G7 gray balance and neutral tone curves and is capable of delivering G7 proofs and print products. While many G7 Masters are printing companies, other graphic solutions providers such as creative and premedia providers may also be qualified as G7 Masters.

G7 Masters are…

  • Skilled, tested, and proven leaders in print production
  • Users of global standards to match proof-to-print across any process, ink, or substrate
  • Committed to reducing costs, speeding product to market, and improving their client’s brand image
