Cardiff By The Sea, CA (Dec. 6, 2023) — ICScolor announces the successful installation of its advanced color remote press approval tool PressCheck at StarPak, a fully integrated printer and leading manufacturer of high-quality flexible packaging products and part of the Five Star Family of Companies. StarPak, known for its innovative packaging solutions and a client-first approach, has integrated ICScolor’s PressCheck into its operations to enhance client relationships and streamline the production and approval process.
