Judge colours under standardised light — and reveal metamerism before your customer does.
Even where measurement is used, visual assessment remains the last step before release. It is only dependable if the illumination is defined: daylight at the window changes by the hour, workshop lighting from bay to bay. A light booth provides standardised illuminants and thereby creates the condition for two assessors in two places to reach the same verdict.
The real reason for the booth is metamerism: two samples that look identical under one illuminant and differ clearly under another. Anyone checking under a single light source discovers this only at the customer. Switching between daylight, store and incandescent light — plus the UV illuminant for optical brighteners — exposes it in seconds.
Trade names from our range. Click a name to ask Corvus — he knows the technical data and helps you narrow things down.
Data sheets, operating manuals and quotations are available on request. We quote prices individually, because configuration, accessories and the scope of calibration decide the figure.
An instrument is only worth something once its readings hold up. Calibration, adjustment, repair and operator training are handled from Aesch — the same contact, the same language.
Caw! I know every data sheet.
Corvus is an AI assistant, not a product filter: tell him in plain language what you need to measure — he reads the BYK-Gardner technical data sheets, asks back when something is missing, and only then recommends. Gloss, colour, film thickness, viscosity, physical testing and more.
He answers from the instruments' technical documents — measuring ranges, standards, specifications. Not from general web knowledge.
Describe the problem in your own words. He asks about the measuring task, substrate and standard — and only then recommends a specific instrument.
For prices, demos and quotes, the ChemServices team takes over personally.
