What is Color Rendering?

Color rendering (CRI) is the ability of

a light source to represent colors in

objects, and is a relative measurement

which rates light sources on a scale of

0–100.The higher the CRI, the more

true colors appear (Good = 70–80 CRI,

Excellent = 80+CRI). High CRI is

essential in settings where it is important

that people appear natural and where

visual clarity is important.
