UPDATE: HunterLab has just announced the launch of its revolutionary Agera® L2 Spectrophotometer, a breakthrough in color measurement technology, effective immediately. This state-of-the-art device is engineered for precision and reliability, making it a game-changer for industries that demand visually accurate color measurement.

The Agera® L2 is equipped with advanced features designed for demanding applications such as plastics, textiles, and pharmaceuticals. This new spectrophotometer offers reference-grade color accuracy, ensuring that quality teams can achieve consistent results even in challenging environments, whether they have a controlled viewing space or not.

Why It Matters NOW: The launch, which took place on January 6, 2026, in Reston, Virginia, represents a significant advancement in color measurement technology. With its ability to handle materials with low reflectance—below 20%—the Agera L2 sets a new industry standard. Quality control teams can now trust its performance across labs, production lines, and global locations.

Bob Weaver, President of HunterLab, emphasized the importance of this launch, stating,

“For decades, HunterLab has defined what accurate color measurement means. With Agera L2, we’re raising that bar again—setting a new standard for color accuracy by aligning instrument data with human vision, even in the most demanding applications.”

The Agera L2 is designed for ease of use, featuring an intuitive touch-optimized interface that requires minimal training. It operates as a fully self-contained workstation, capable of processing and storing over 4 million measurements. This means faster decision-making and streamlined workflows for quality teams.

Key features of the Agera L2 include:
– **True D65 Daylight Illumination**: Certified Grade ‘A’ CIE D65 source ensures consistent visual accuracy.
– **Enhanced Performance for Dark Samples**: Achieves a sixfold improvement in accuracy for samples with low reflectance.
– **Extra-Large Area of View**: The largest single measurement area in the industry, accommodating a variety of materials.
– **Built-In Sample View Camera**: Allows for alignment confirmation and data recording for traceability.

This innovation not only enhances data integrity and compliance—thanks to role-based user management and audit logging—but also strengthens HunterLab’s position as a leader in color measurement solutions. The rugged design ensures reliability in real-world conditions, protecting against dust and spills.

What’s Next? Quality control teams are encouraged to request demos to experience the Agera L2 firsthand. For more information, visit www.hunterlab.com or contact [email protected].
