Why is Colour measurement important?
Why is Colour measurement important?
Many circumstances exist where some form of colour measurement is necessary to quantify and assess a product’s colour.
In some industries, color indicates a product’s overall quality and ability to meet consumer needs. For example, colors in the manufacturing industry must be consistent as they influence the product’s function — after all, you wouldn’t want to buy paint that comes with a slightly different color every time.
What can you measure with Colour management?
• Uniformity of Colour in Production - If the colour of a product varies from one batch to another, it may be perceived as being an inferior product.
• Achieve Aesthetic Quality - Presentation of an acceptable and consistent colour is of tremendous importance to consumers.
• Performance Indicator - For example, to assess the performance of decolourising materials or to determine a product’s suitability for a particular purpose.
• Indicate Product Condition - For example, as an indication of the level of purity, the degree of deterioration over time, adverse growing conditions experienced by natural raw materials or the condition of used product.
• To Indicate the Level of Refining/Processing - In oil refining processes, the colour provides a good indication of the degree of refinement and allows optimisation of the refining process.
• Content Indicator -There is often a correlation between colour and chemical/physical content (for example, the amount of chlorophyll in oil). In these cases, colour measurement may offer a simple alternative to more complex means of testing.
