ISO Test Charts Frequently Ask Questions

CIELAB L*a*b* values are the most standardized units in the use of color measurement. These determine values of lightness (L*), red-green (a*), and blue-yellow (b*). The color differences between the two samples can be measured through ΔE.

Yes. However, for LED retrofitting to meet industry standards, color- calibrated LED modules must be used for accurate color rendering. We usually do not recommend customers to modify it themselves, as this can affect the accuracy of the color and cause unnecessary losses


Lightbooths come in different dimensions. A typical tabletop model occupies 0.5-1 m². The bigger industrial variants take up 2-4 m².  If you have special requirements, we can customize the product according to your size


A colorimeter is used to measure absorbance at selected wavelengths with the help of filters, which is suitable for rapid comparison of colors. A more advanced spectrophotometer has a monochromator. It can measure a larger range of the spectrum of light and is more accurate. You can also get detailed color data at visible and non-visible wavelengths.


Different types of substrates require different kinds of digital gauges. Magnetic gauges are for ferrous metals, eddy current gauges are for non-ferrous metals and ultrasonic gauges are for any non-metal composites like plastics. Careful selection of a gauge is the most important factor for obtaining accurate measurements.  


D65, TL84, A light, CWF, and UV are the most common standardized sources used for precise color matching.

The Colour Assessment Cabinet (CAC) is a controlled environment used for the visual evaluation of color wherein the light sources are consistent.


A coating thickness gauge measures coating thickness. It measures coating thickness using three different principles: magnetic induction, eddy current, or ultrasonic. Depending on the coating type and the coating's substrate material, the appropriate principle is selected. For industrial and laboratory use, most of these units deliver accurate, non-invasive readings.


Inconsistent results from a haze meter can stem from issues like calibration, dusty haze meter optics, inadequate power supply, and improper measurement technique. If you have any questions, you can contact our Haze measurement experts


 The five common gloss levels are:

1. Flat/Matte (0–10 GU)

2. Eggshell (10–25 GU)

3. Satin (26–40 GU)

4. Semi-gloss (41–70 GU)

High Gloss (71–100+ GU)
These levels vary slightly depending on industry and standards used.
