Product description

The NCS Lightness Meter is a precise measuring instrument for determining the L-value (Lightness) of colours and materials. Lightness is one of the most critical components within the NCS system, as it directly influences colour perception, contrast effect, and spatial experience.

This instrument makes it possible to: objectively measure surface lightness, calculate colour contrasts, align design choices with accessibility standards, compare material variants, and perform quality control within production and application.

Applications: interior environments and material libraries, facades, signage and wayfinding, coatings and paint production, safety and accessibility guidelines (visual contrast), product development and colour validation.

Key features:

  • Measures L-value according to NCS system
  • Professional, reproducible lightness measurement
  • Compact and suitable for field use
  • Essential for contrast studies
  • Indispensable for QC in coating and paint processes
