Haze captures the scattering of light, transmittance measures the light that passes through a said material.


Always a pre-production sample before mass production; Always final Inspection before shipment; 

Opaque liquids and powders can be put into a cuvette for color measurement. 

Ambient light, heat, and moisture levels should be regulated. The use of colored walls and reflective surfaces should be avoided, as they can damage the assessment of the sample colors visually.


The gloss meter is used to measure gloss at typical angles (typically 20°, 60°, or 85°). The instrument illuminates the material and measures the amount of light reflected and states the outcome in gloss units (GU), which is related to perceived brilliance.


L*a*b* is an L*a*b* color space. The L* is a measure of lightness (as 0 = black, 100 = white), a* indicates the green to red axis, and b* indicates the blue to yellow axis. It is also common in color measurement in terms of precision and reliability.


Powder paint gloss levels are commonly classified as:

● Flat/Matte: 0–10 GU

● Satin: 10–40 GU

● Semi-Gloss: 40–70 GU

● Gloss: 70–85 GU

High Gloss: 85+ GU
These ranges can vary by manufacturer and application angle.


Now our testing machines have been sold to more than 80 countries, like USA, Canada, Russia,UK, Italy, Germany, European , India, Pakistan, Philippine, Singapore, Malaysia,Thailand , Vietnam, Korea,Saudi Arabia,Brazil...and so on. We sell to the global market.

SCI&SCE are two method in the color measurement. SCI means Specular Component Include,SCE means Specular Component Exclude.

Under the method of SCE, only test diffuse refection and exclude specular reflection. In that way, the test result is similar to object color was observed by human eyes.

Under the method SCI, both the diffuse refection and specular reflection will be included. In that way, the value about the color is more objective. It will not effect by the environment condition.

When we choose the instrument, those elements should be taking into consideration.


Light booths and color matching are essential for the textiles, printing, automotive, plastics, cosmetics, and coatings industries. These fields rely on tight color alignment to protect brand value and meet global quality demands for color.
