Color is more than aesthetics; it’s a critical factor in poultry quality and safety. In today’s competitive market, producers need precise colormeasurement solutions to meet regulatory standards and ensure consumer satisfaction of poultry.
Enter HunterLab – a pioneer in color measurement technology. Our state-of-the-art spectrophotometers provide quantitative standardization values, allowing producers to maintain product consistency, and reduce wastage.
Why measure the color of poultry?
The answer lies in safety and efficiency. The USDA mandates strict guidelines and identifying issues early in the production line is crucial. HunterLab’s objective color data helps you spot quality trends, prevent downtime, and make informed decisions.
In the rigorous regulatory environment surrounding the poultry processing industry, companies must implement the most stringent, efficient, and accurate quality control systems. Quality control failures can damage your bottom line via rework, recalls, and reputational damage. The integration of HunterLab spectrophotometers can reduce your margin of error by eliminating unreliable human factors.
With an easy-to-use modern interface and the latest data communications features, our best-in-class spectrophotometers reduce the time and labor necessary to evaluate color. Additionally, they come with color measurement software that can store and recall thousands of standards, all the color scales and indices you need, including CIE L*a*b*.
The data is displayed and stored digitally and can be fed into your Statistical Process Control (SPC) systems, facilitating more efficient #workflows. These features accelerate the quality control process by shrinking the time to measure multiple samples.
