How to measure the color of Water

Color plays a critical role in determining the quality and consistency of water products.
The color of water, or the lack there of, 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 spectrophotometers provide water producers with quantitative values they can trust, including APHA, Haze%, and other standard scales and indices, to accurately evaluate the quality of their products.

Why Measure the Color of Water?
1. Refining Process Optimization: The color and appearance measurements of water help identify the optimal level of refinement before distribution. By assessing color, manufacturers can fine-tune their processes for consistent quality and efficiency.
2. Valuable Quality Control Information: The color of water provides insights into its source and content. Testing for color is a quick and easy way to evaluate product quality.
3.HunterLab Color Measurement Solutions: Our spectrophotometers offer accurate and consistent color and appearance data. They enhance production efficiency and maintain consistency.
