Wan-Ifra celebrates colour champions
In 1994, Wan-Ifra initiated the International Color Quality Club (ICQC). Every two years, publishers from all over the world send their print publications. They are evaluated according to the ISO printing standard. Samples that demonstrate colour printing excellence are awarded ICQC membership.
