For example, a better flow through tubes can take place and dispensers can be adjusted to the right force to induce flow without the package becoming overfilled. But in addition to quality control, knowing the viscosity of a (semi) finished product helps to organize the production process efficiently and to reduce costs.

By measuring the viscosity of products such as toothpaste, cough syrup or ointment, ink, paint and coatings, manufacturers can predict how products will behave once they are in the hands of the consumer. In the chemical and cosmetic industry, viscosity testing is a very important parameter for quality control. What are viscosity meters used for in the chemical and cosmetic industry?
