GretagMacbeth was a company that specialized in color management solutions. Founded in 1915 as Macbeth, a division of the Kollmorgen Corporation, it later became GretagMacbeth following a merger in 2001 with Gretag AG.

The legacy of GretagMacbeth continues through X-Rite's continued development and support of advanced color management technologies.
