Measuring the Colour

of Water

The colour of water, or the lack thereof, affects people’s perception of its cleanliness, safety, and drinkability. To ensure their brand is successful, bottled water manufacturers must consistently provide customers with transparent and colorless products. HunterLab offers colour measurement solutions that meet the quality standards of visual perception for water. The HunterLab spectrophotometers provide water producers with quantitative values, including APHA, Haze%, and other standard scales and indices, to accurately evaluate the quality of their products.

Why measure the colour of water?​

Colour and appearance measurements play a crucial part in the refining process of water. This data helps to identify the optimum level of refinement before distribution. The colour of water can provide valuable information about its source and content. Testing for colour can be a quick and easy way to evaluate the quality of water products. HunterLab spectrophotometers and quality control solutions provide accurate and consistent colour and appearance data that can improve the efficiency and consistency of your production process.

Manufacturers need colour and appearance measurements to verify product quality. HunterLab manufactures premier spectrophotometers that can measure both the colour and haze (turbidity) of water simultaneously.

The HunterLab spectrophotometer can measure the colour of water against industry colour scales and indices, ensuring that your brand reputation and profit margins are always in check. Make your quality assurance process simple with an easy-to-use modern interface, the latest data communication features, and all the pre-equipped colour scales and indices you need, including Hunter L,a,b, CIELAB, APHA, and Haze%.
