The ability of a surface to reflect light without scattering is known as Gloss. Gloss is measured by directing a
constant power light beam at an angle to the test surface and then by monitoring the amount of reflected
light. Different surfaces require different reflective angles. Elcometer Glossmeters cover the range necessary
to measure almost any surface from high gloss to matt, from large to small surfaces - flat or curved.

The Novo-Gloss Trio gloss meter is a fully featured, extremely easy to use instrument measuring the gloss of all flat surfaces. The 60º is the reference angle and is be used to measure any surface from matt to mirror finish. To complement this the instrument also has 20º for improved measurement on high-gloss surfaces and 85º which gives improved resolution on matt surfaces. New technology provides in excess of 15,000 readings. Conforms to ISO, BS, ASTM, DIN & AS.
