Acceptability of color has been the top priority in safflower oil manufacturing due to the well-known correlation between color perception and product quality. HunterLab provides the ideal color measurement solutions to ensure that the finished product is flawless and meets the specific standards that the edible oil industry demands. Our innovative color measuring instruments give producers quantitative values to accurately evaluate their quality.
Why use spectrophotometers to measure the color of safflower oil?
Many in the industry are still using outdated visual comparison methods of color measurement. Spectrophotometers provide far greater accuracy, far greater consistency and are able to provide reliable
inter-instrument agreements from anywhere on the globe.
Why measure the color of safflower oil?
Color and appearance measurements play a crucial part in the refining process of safflower oil. This data helps to identify the optimum level of refinement and grading of safflower oil before distribution. HunterLab spectrophotometers and QC solutions provide accurate and consistent color and appearance data that can improve the efficiency and consistency of your grading process.
Consumers depend on color as an indicator of quality when choosing the right oil. Even slight color or appearance changes indicate to consumers that something is wrong with their product or that the quality has changed. Hence maintaining the same color and appearance consistency throughout the production process of safflower oil is an essential step in ensuring consistency and quality of the final product.
HunterLab’s transmittance spectrophotometer offers a faster and more modern method for color measurement using the LOVIBOND® RYBN and AOCS color scales. Since consumers select products by color, HunterLab helps safflower oil manufacturers meet consumer expectations and regulatory requirements. It also comes with the new and improved color software, Essentials 2.0. Take precise and reliable color measurements in seconds with next-gen user-friendliness and seamlessly analyze multiple tristimulus and spectral data sets. It’s that powerful.
Rather than requiring expensive and hard-to-clean 1-in or 5.25-in transmittance cells, it enables small quantity sample measurements (as small as 10mm) in inexpensive transmittance cells and vials. With only 5 seconds per measurement, our unparalleled color measurement solution improves productivity and requires less sample material and less time on post-measurement cleaning.
HunterLab’s color measurement solution for the safflower oil industry can simultaneously measure color and haze (turbidity). As a result, you only have to buy one tool for both measurements, and you only have to test your samples once to get both values.
Safflower oil products are susceptible to temperature, lighting, storage conditions, and air quality changes. Using a spectrophotometer that can measure the color of safflower oil against industry-accepted color scales and indices can ensure that your brand reputation and profit margins are in check.
HunterLab makes your quality assurance process simple with an easy-to-use modern interface, the latest data communication features, and all the pre-equipped color scales and indexes you need including Gardner, Hunter L,a,b, CIELAB, LOVIBOND® and AOCS RY. In short, HunterLab ensures the best value by offering the lowest total cost of ownership, lowest maintenance costs, lowest service costs, our renowned long instrument lifespan, and our stellar customer service.
