Industrial and domestic consumers of coloured products, whether food, motor vehicles, clothing, coatings or cosmetics, are using the consistency of colour and appearance of the finished products as a measure of intrinsic quality performance.
Formulations and recipes must not only be consistently repeatable and reproducible, but the product must also be monitored to check that this is being achieved in practice.
