Munsell Custom Colour Standards
The Munsell Colour Laboratory produces custom standards to meet the needs of industry, commerce and govern. These colour standards are used for products, logos, packaging, foods, interiors and more. They help eliminate costly errors caused by poor colour communication and ensure colour accuracy through every step of production, from colour design and selection to finished product. Standards for gloss and texture can also be established.

Colour Tolerance Sets are the best way to ensure visual control of colour quality of different types of materials, especially when a variety of suppliers are responsible for various parts of a single product. These seven-step cards are used for visual evaluation of colour differences from a specified colour standard. With Munsell's assistance, you determine the acceptable range of deviation and a tolerance set is created showing the ideal colour plus six others representing the acceptable upper and lower limits for the three dimensions of colour. Even when colour is con-trolled by measurements, a colour tolerance set is a useful aid m visualising colour tolerances and reaching clear understandings among buyers, sellers and producers.
