X-Rite/Macbeth - Light Booths

X-Rite light booths enable critical color choices and reliable color assessment to avoid unnecessary revisions. Using a light booth to visually evaluate items and parts – next to each other and under different light sources – can help identify product defects, color inconsistencies, metameric effects (an optical phenomenon in which a pair of samples appears to match under one light source but not under another) and the impact of optical brightener agents (OBAs).

X-Rite light booths can replicate many lighting environments, including daylight (D50, D65) incandescent tungsten, warm-white fluorescent, and LED bulbs to verify products will look right in retail stores and after they arrive in the consumer’s yard, home, or office. They can help you adhere to visual assessment requirements in accordance with major international standards, including ASTM, DIN, ANSI, BSI, TAPPI, and ISO.

Color looks different when lighting changes, which is why controlled lighting is essential for color evaluation. By implementing proper illumination and best practices for visual evaluation, you can reduce waste, rejects and rework and achieve an advantage over competitors.
