What is CRI?

CRI (Color Rendering Index) measures how accurately a light displays an object's true color. CRI plays important role in your home’s color appearance.

In general, the higher the number (between 0-100), the more accurate the color is to natural light.

90 CRI closely reproduces natural light and make colors appear more vibrant. Most LED lights can produce between 80-90 for indoor applications.

CRI is more critical in a museum or photography setting to ensure an accurate  color appearance, but it's also important for residential homes to make your space more lively with crisp colors.

CRI typically can be found on the Lighting Specs data label or on product specification page.
