X-Rite Color Management Solutions Help Brands Incorporate Pantone Color of the Year 2025: PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse in Design to Production Workflows
X-Rite Incorporated, a global leader in color science and technology, announced the official spectral color value for Pantone Color of the Year 2025: PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse. This elegant and grounding brown tone is now available in PantoneLIVE , a cloud-based digital color standard ecosystem. With X-Rite's end-to-end color management solutions, brands and manufacturers can immediately incorporate Mocha Mousse into their digital workflows for accurate color specification, virtual prototyping, formulation, measurement, and quality control. This allows brands and manufacturers to meet consumer demand for high-quality, trend-forward products while streamlining their design to production workflows.
PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse is a warm, inviting color that works across various materials, from soft fabrics, heavy-duty textiles, natural materials, and glossy plastics, making it ideal for a range of consumer products, said Pieter Mulder, Global Strategic Account Manager, X-Rite. With X-Rite's advanced digital tools, brands can confidently integrate this trend-setting color into their creative and production processes, ensuring consistent and accurate color representation across every stage, from concept to finished product, while driving efficiency and sustainability in their workflows.
X-Rite Brings Mocha Mousse to Life
PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse is a versatile hue, ideally suited for apparel, footwear, home d cor, cosmetics, and more. With X-Rite's comprehensive digital tools, brands and manufacturers can bring this color to life with exceptional precision and production efficiency.
Color Approval with Textile Color Hub
Traditional workflows for color approval often involve multiple rounds of physical sampling, leading to delays and material waste. Using X-Rites Textile Color Hub, brands can select a color from the PantoneLIVE library, such as Mocha Mousse, or measure a physical sample using a benchtop spectrophotometer, and load it into PantoneLIVE Private Library Manager to share with all stakeholders. Brands then create a Color Specification Document that includes the spectral data for the specified color, tolerances, and illuminant requirements. Using this digital data, suppliers can digitally formulate and submit the closest color match for approval, eliminating the subjectivity and back-and-forth of physical samples and improving time to market.
Create Virtual Prototypes and Digital Material Twins with PANTORA
X-Rite's PANTORA desktop application enables manufacturers to create realistic digital material twins of Mocha Mousse, capturing not only its spectral data but also texture, weave, or sheen. By visualizing the color on different materials under multiple lighting conditions, designers and manufacturers can make informed decisions without the need for costly physical samples.
Mocha Mousse stands out when paired with different textures, glosses and finishes, continued Mulder. X-Rite PANTORA allows brands to explore these possibilities digitally, faithfully representing these appearance characteristics in digital rendering in order to accelerate the design process and reduce waste.
Advanced Measurement and Quality Control
X-Rite's Ci7000 Series and MetaVue VS3200 spectrophotometers capture precise spectral data from physical samples, ensuring accurate color formulation and quality control for Mocha Mousse across various materials, from soft-touch weaves to durable canvases and coated plastics. These advanced tools enable brands to measure, maintain, and analyze production colors against the standards, ensuring color consistency across patterns, textures, performance fabrics, accessories, and other challenging-to-measure samples.
Adapting to color trends has never been easier. With X-Rite color management solutions, we are helping brands enhance creativity and bring innovative designs to market faster and more sustainability, said Mulder.
