Measuring the Color

of Fertilizers

Color Consistency That Sells. Speed That Delivers.

In the fertilizer industry, color does more than indicate product type—it signals quality, freshness, and brand identity. Powdered and granulated fertilizers often suffer from color drift due to inconsistent raw materials or environmental exposure.

HunterLab’s ColorFlex L2 empowers manufacturers to monitor color with accuracy, speed, and reliability—ensuring every bag shipped meets visual expectations and ASTM compliant technical specs. Ensure product purity, reduce waste, and measure color, including CIELAB, WI E313, YI D1925, YI E313, and Delta E indices with fast, objective data.

Why measure the color of Fertilizers?

  • Color variation from blended minerals: Natural ingredient variability can cause hue shifts that undermine brand uniformity.
  • Moisture and oxidation: Storage or transit exposure can darken product tone, signaling degradation.
  • Operator-based QC variation: Human error and inconsistent lighting create unreliable evaluations.
