Colour measurement of pasta

Fresh and long-life pasta and noodles form the cornerstone of many people’s diets and come in many different shapes, colours and compositions. Durum wheat is usually the main ingredient, but other types of wheat are also becoming increasingly popular. The addition of colorants and other types of grain means that the range of products on offer is becoming ever wider.

In any case, a uniform colour without light or dark spots is a sign of quality and increases consumer confidence in the products. HunterLab offers reliable colour measurement for large and small sample quantities, non-contact or in sample holders. Well-known companies in the food industry worldwide rely on HunterLab colorimeters, please ask us for references.
