Pantone 1235 gestreken vs ongestreken
Dezelfde inkt, twee oppervlakken. De ongestreken druk oogt duidelijk zachter en lichter. Bij deze kleur zien mensen het verschil. Transparant: dekt geen donker papier.

Wat er echt verandert
| Gestreken | Ongecoat | |
|---|---|---|
| Referentie | 1235 C | 1235 U |
| Oppervlak | Gesloten. Inkt ligt op de coating. | Open vezel. Inkt trekt in en loopt licht uit. |
| Saturation | Volle sterkte: dit is de kleurstaal waaruit de meeste merkrichtlijnen zijn gekozen. | Down roughly 27% in apparent chroma. The uncoated print reads distinctly softer and lighter: this is a colour people notice the difference on. |
| Detail | Haarlijnen en kleine tekst blijven scherp. | Reken op lichte puntvergroting; dunne uitsparingen kunnen dichtlopen. |
| Ideaal voor | Merkkleuren die exact op de kleurstaal moeten passen. | Letterpress, katoen en gestructureerd papier waar zachtheid juist de bedoeling is. |
The same ink is not the same colour on the two stocks. On coated sheets the ink sits on a sealed surface: denser, brighter, sharper edges. On uncoated the fibres absorb it: softer, duller, slightly lighter, and warm colours lose the most punch. Some colours change character outright: brights go chalky, deep navies go grey-blue.
Veelgestelde vragen
- Is 1235 C dezelfde kleur als 1235 U?
- No. They are the same ink formulation printed on two different surfaces, and PANTONE® publishes them as two separate chips for that reason. The uncoated print reads distinctly softer and lighter: this is a colour people notice the difference on. If your brand guideline names only one of them, name the stock too: otherwise the press has to guess.
- Welke moet ik kiezen?
- Specify the one that matches the paper you are actually printing on. If the job runs on uncoated stock, sign off against 1235 U: approving the C chip and then printing uncoated is the single most common colour complaint we see.
- Kun je de ongestreken versie laten aansluiten op de gestreken kleurstaal?
- Not exactly, no. We can push density a little, and on some colours a double hit closes part of the gap, but the coating is doing the work: no amount of ink turns an uncoated sheet into a coated one. Where the brand colour is non-negotiable, we would look at a coated stock, a spot varnish under the solid, or foil.
- Does Pantone 1235 cover dark paper on either stock?
- Offset and letterpress inks are translucent. On a dark or coloured stock a light ink will not cover: it sinks into the sheet and reads tone-on-tone. For light colour on dark paper the answer is foil stamping or an opaque screen pass, never a straight PMS hit.
