The ability of surface to reflect the light without scattering is known as gloss, and the amount of gloss is called glossiness.

It is determined by a ratio between the intensity of reflection from the measurement area and the intensity of reflected light from the gloss standard plate. HORIBA’s gloss meters provides an objective way to evaluate the gloss of the surface and to inspect the quality of final product or completed work. The instrument is capable of high precision, instantaneous measurement and accurate gloss readings. Its lightweight design and ease of operation makes it applicable for various industries, where it is required to measure gloss and evaluate glossiness for quality inspection and further quality improvements. Our gloss meters are widely used for such applications as gloss measurement after waxing, painting, cleaning of buildings, wooden floor maintenance, inspection of furniture, stone processing, building materials, and more.
