Centiliters (cl)

Definition

A centiliter (cL) is a metric unit of volume equal to one hundredth of a liter (0.01 L) or 10 milliliters.

History

The centiliter is part of the original metric system. While less commonly used than milliliters or liters, it found a niche in European food and beverage labeling.

Current use

Centiliters are commonly used in Europe for wine, spirits, and beverage serving sizes (e.g., a 75 cL wine bottle, a 33 cL beer). They also appear in some European cooking recipes and food packaging.

Gallons (gal)
