The Reference for a brilliant finish

High quality “class A” surfaces are expected to have a clear and brilliant appearance. Micro structures can cause a milky appearance. This effect is described as milkiness or haze and is often caused by specific parameters in the production process like resin type, degree of dispersion or application process. Haze can be characterized by measuring the diffuse scattered light. BYK-Gardner haze meters are used for years as a reference in the paint and plastic industry to ensure a brilliant quality.

Gloss and haze measurement in one unit

• 20, 60 and 85°: from high to low gloss - always the specified angle available
• For any material: paint, plastic or even
  mirror-like metals
• Reference beam, closed optics and self diagnosis ensure accurate quality control
• Long-term calibration and menu guided operation - simple and secure

• Foot switch and automatic measurement for fast sampling
• Illuminated target facilitates sample
  positioning
• Statistics with average, min/max and
  standard deviation
• Large storage capacity and data transfer from the hazemeter to a PC
• Create professional QC-reports with the included easy-link software
