Measuring the Color

of Food Dyes

The natural or artificial coloring in our food requires careful monitoring to achieve desired results and meet industry standards. HunterLab’s color measurement solutions can accurately measure their color intensity and quantify this information for repeatability. Our spectrophotometers use the latest technology to ensure food products maintain the same color intensity consumers expect.

Why measure the color of Food Dyes?​

Adding food dyes can drastically alter the product's final appearance. Manufactures need to monitor the entire process during and after production stages carefully. The food industry has specific standards and regulations regarding the usage of dyes. Lack of adherence to these protocols may result in a discarded batch of final food products, affect consumer brand loyalty, and even fines from government agencies. Instrumental analysis of food dyes ensures that quality and visual recognition are maintained no matter where a product is manufactured or who performs the color evaluation.
